Had another thought? Append it to an existing note instead of creating a new one.

Append by Voice

  1. Open the note you want to add to
  2. Tap the Continue button (iPhone/iPad) or press ⇧ + N (Mac)
  3. Speak your new thoughts, then tap Stop
Your existing note stays readable while Cleft adds the recording and prepares its new summary. You can open another note while it finishes. If the addition does not save, Cleft keeps it on this device and tells you why. If you are offline, Cleft adds it when you reconnect. If the original note no longer exists, the addition becomes a new note. For any other problem, Cleft tries again a few times, then offers Retry addition on the note.

Append by Text

Open the note in edit mode, place your cursor where you want to add content, and type. See Editing & Formatting Notes for more on the editor.

Merge Two Notes

Have related thoughts in separate notes? Combine them:
  1. Select two notes
  2. Long-press (iPhone/iPad) or right-click (Mac) and choose Merge
Merging can’t be undone. Consider duplicating a note first if you want to keep the original.

Unified Summary (Plus)

When you append multiple voice recordings, Cleft merges everything into one cohesive summary, with no duplicates, logical flow, and consolidated action items. This respects your Writing Style, so your formatting stays consistent across all merged content.
