šŸ“ Add Folder Support

I’d love to have the ability to organize notes into folders. Right now, Locu notes are flat — and while it’s simple, it can get cluttered when working across multiple contexts. Folders would make it much easier to group related notes together, creating a lightweight structure that fits different use cases.

Folders would also enable some ā€œlittle hacksā€ in the app — letting users create their own custom structures or workarounds for missing features. It’s a flexible way to customize organization without adding complex options.

My use case:

I write notes related to different people. Currently, there’s no built-in way to group them logically, so I end up using naming hacks like ā€œPerson – Johnā€, ā€œPerson – Lisaā€, etc. With folders, this could be much cleaner.

Solution: A simple approach could be to introduce a default folder called ā€œDraftsā€, where all new notes are automatically created. Users could then drag notes into custom folders (like ā€œPeopleā€, etc.) to keep things organized. This would keep the experience intuitive while unlocking more flexibility for users who want to structure their notes their own way.

    Hi Martin,

    Thanks for clearly describing the problem. This makes sense. We’ve added it.

    We now have a ā€œNotesā€ folder where you can create all your notes and organize them into folders in a tree hierarchy.

    We’ll also add a ā€œMeeting Notesā€ special folder to capture all notes from meetings, as well as a Quick Note option to easily jot down thoughts on the fly.

    Let us know what you think, thanks!
