Take Notes in ClickUp Mobile

The ClickUp mobile app makes it easy to capture quick ideas, detailed notes, and reminders wherever you are. This guide explains how to use the built-in Notepad, turn notes into tasks, and keep everything organized on your phone or tablet.

All instructions here are based on the official documentation for taking notes on the mobile app. For reference, you can also review the original help article on the ClickUp support site.

Overview of Notes in the ClickUp Mobile App

In the mobile app, you can use the Notepad feature to store private notes that stay tied to your ClickUp profile. These notes are not shared with your Workspace by default, but you can quickly convert them into tasks when needed.

Key things you can do with notes on mobile include:

• Create and save simple or detailed notes for yourself.
• Edit notes with rich text formatting.
• Convert notes into tasks in any Space, Folder, or List.
• Delete notes you no longer need.

Access the ClickUp Notepad on Mobile

To start taking notes, open the Notepad section inside the ClickUp mobile app. The exact position may vary slightly by platform, but the flow is similar on iOS and Android.

1. Open the ClickUp app on your mobile device.
2. Sign in to your Workspace if you are not already logged in.
3. From the navigation at the bottom or side, tap the option that opens the Notepad area for your personal notes.

Once you are in the Notepad, you can view your existing notes or create new ones immediately.

Create a New Note in ClickUp Mobile

Use the Notepad to add a new note whenever you want to capture information quickly. Each note is private to your user account until you choose to turn it into a task.

Steps to add a new ClickUp note

1. Open the ClickUp mobile app and go to the Notepad section.
2. Tap the button or icon to create a new note.
3. Enter a title for your note so you can easily recognize it later.
4. Tap into the body field and type your content, such as meeting points, ideas, or reminders.
5. Tap the save or back option when you are done so the note is stored.

New notes are saved to your personal Notepad and can be edited or converted to tasks any time.

Format Notes with the ClickUp Editor

The mobile editor lets you format your notes so they are easier to read and scan. Basic rich text tools are available directly above the keyboard when you edit a note.

Available formatting options in ClickUp notes

While options can vary with app updates, you can typically use tools such as:

• Headings: Make section titles stand out inside longer notes.
• Bold and italics: Emphasize key words or phrases.
• Bulleted or numbered lists: Break down tasks, ideas, or agendas.
• Checklists: Track items you want to mark as complete.
• Links: Add links to web pages, docs, or tasks for quick reference.

To format text in a note:

1. Select the text you want to change.
2. Tap the formatting icon in the editor toolbar.
3. Choose the style (for example, heading, bold, list, or checklist).

Formatted notes are easier to scan later and help you stay organized when you review information inside ClickUp.

Convert a ClickUp Note into a Task

When a note needs follow-up, you can turn it into an actionable task directly from the ClickUp mobile app. This is useful for to-do items, meeting outcomes, or next steps from brainstorming sessions.

How to turn a ClickUp note into a task

1. Open the ClickUp app and go to your Notepad.
2. Tap the note that you want to convert.
3. Look for the option or icon labeled to create a task from the note.
4. Select the Space, Folder, and List where the new task should live.
5. Edit the task title, description, assignee, and due date if needed.
6. Save the task to add it to your Workspace.

The content of your note becomes the task description. This lets you move seamlessly from quick capture to structured work inside ClickUp without copying and pasting.

Edit or Delete Notes in ClickUp Mobile

You can manage your notes at any time from the Notepad section of the ClickUp app. Keeping your notes tidy will make it easier to find important information later.

Edit an existing ClickUp note

1. Open the ClickUp mobile app.
2. Go to the Notepad area.
3. Tap the note you want to change.
4. Edit the title or body text directly.
5. Use formatting tools if you want to reorganize or highlight content.
6. Tap save or navigate back so your changes are stored.

Delete a note from ClickUp Notepad

If a note is no longer needed, you can remove it:

1. Open Notepad inside the ClickUp app.
2. Find the note you want to delete.
3. Tap the options menu for that note.
4. Choose the delete option and confirm when prompted.

Deleted notes are removed from your personal Notepad and will no longer appear in your mobile view.

Tips for Organizing Notes in ClickUp

Because the Notepad in ClickUp is personal to you, it works best as a fast capture tool that you review regularly. Use these tips to keep it under control:

• Give each note a clear title that describes its purpose.
• Use headings inside longer notes to separate topics.
• Convert notes into tasks whenever follow-up work is needed.
• Delete or update notes after meetings or planning sessions.
• Review your Notepad daily so it remains a useful workspace.
