Notes & Collections
Understanding item types
Note: Normal note created by hand.
Note(Marks): This type of note is created automatically when users highlight content and comments in the browser extension or by clicking Comment in Copilot (right sidebar).
Collection: A collection is a container where users can sort your items.
Resource: A resource is a copy in clean format of the page content, saved automatically when you view.
Chat: A chat is a query or answer in your chat history.
What is a Collection?
In remio, a Collection serves as both a type of note and a container, forming a key part of how high-level knowledge is aggregated and abstracted.
Collections streamline knowledge and resource management, allowing users to use them either as standalone containers or as overarching items.
remio's Collections are far more flexible than traditional folders and tags. In remio, not only can one item belong to multiple Collections, but one Collection can also belong to multiple other Collections.
Adding Items to a Collection
Users can add all kinds of items, excluding Chat, to an existing Collection or Note by using one of the following two methods.
Method 1: Open the item to be added (aka. the child) and choose "Add to Collection".
Method 2: Open the Collection (aka. the parent) and use sublink (see below) to add the target to the current Collection.
An item can be added to multiple Collections as needed.
Users can add items to a Note or Note(Marks), then that Note or Note(Marks) will convert to a Collection automatically. So Users don't need to decide beforehand which item should be Note or Collection. This special design can provide users with greater flexibility.
Adding to Collections Using Browser Extension:
remio allows you to add web pages directly to a Collection in the browser.
Method 1:You can select the content you want to save on the webpage, click the right button, call up the system menu, and select add to collection to add it to the remio collection.
Method 2: When using the remio browser extension and the remio side panel is active, you can find an "Add to collections" option that functions similarly to the right-click method, offering recommendations and the ability to create new Collections.
This integration allows for a more efficient workflow for managing research and information gathered from the web by directly organizing it into relevant Collections.
Using AI Suggestions for Collections
remio may recommend a proper existing or new Collection based on the item’s content, so Users can add an item to a Collection with one click.
Viewing and Accessing Collections
Collections are displayed as cards in All, alongside other kinds of notes. Users can choose to view only collections by clicking "Collections" in the upper - right corner.
Removing items from Collection
Their are two methods to remove an item from a Collection:
Method 1: Open the item to be removed (aka. the child). Hover on the Collection to be removed from and choose "Remove link." from the card of Collection.
Method 2: Open the Collection to be removed from (aka. the parent). Find the item to be removed from the list of items. Hover on that item and choose "Remove link." from the card of that item.
Using Collections with Smart Features
Collections and items they contain are automatically considered as reference material when users use remio’s “Ask” or “Smart Writing” features. This ensures organized content enhances these tools.
