To organize is the list of saves that don't have a category yet: things you filed Later, or saved in a hurry. Home shows how many are waiting on its first chip ("3 to organize").

To organize with three waiting saves, a Start organizing button and suggested categories under two of them

Open To organize

  1. Tap Home.
  2. Tap the first chip, such as 3 to organize. The list opens with 3 waiting at the top.

The widget's "to organize" count and the Daily reminder open it too.

File them one at a time

  1. Tap Start organizing. The first save opens, with 1 of 3 at the top.
  2. Read the save. Add a note in Why did you save this? (What is this? for your own photos) if you like.
  3. Tap a category. If Noodle has a suggestion, it says "I'd file this one in" and the category, and that chip has a sparkle.
  4. Tap the suggested tags you want to keep, or × to dismiss them. Type your own in Add a tag.
  5. Tap File and next. The next save opens. On the last one it says File and finish.

Tap Skip to leave a save for another time.

Organize view at 1 of 3, with a Why did you save this? note box, every category as a chip and suggested tags such as remind, library and saturday

File several at once

  1. On the To organize list, tap Select, or touch and hold a save.
  2. Tap the saves to file together, or Select all.
  3. Tap Organize 2 (the number is how many you picked). The Organize 2 items sheet opens.
  4. Pick a category. Tags you add under Add tags go on all of them.
  5. Tap Apply. They all leave the list.

Tap Clear to stop selecting.

Accept a single suggestion from the list

Under some saves, the list shows Noodle's suggested category with a sparkle, such as Home. Tap it to file that save there without opening it.

Good to know

  • When the list is empty, Noodle says All tidy!
  • Want Noodle to file new saves by itself? Go to Settings → Organizing and set Categories to Apply automatically. It never changes a category you picked yourself.
  • Filing from To organize works the same as the File it sheet on the Save page.
