To edit a note on iPhone, while editing an item, click the “Edit Note” button above the keyboard. On Mac or iPad, you can use the “shift” + “enter” shortcut.
Headings
You can create headings by using hashtags (#) before your text. The number of hashtags you use will determine the level of the heading. For example, using one hashtag (#) creates a major heading, similar to a title, while using two hashtags (##) creates a sub-heading. Using more hashtags creates lower-level headings.
# This is a major heading
## This is a sub-heading
### This is a lower-level headingOrdered and Unordered Lists
Markdown makes it simple to create ordered (numbered) and unordered (bulleted) lists.
For ordered lists, simply start a line with a number, followed by a period and a space. For example:
1. First item
2. Second item
3. Third itemFor unordered lists, you can use either a dash (-) or an asterisk (*) followed by a space. For example:
- First item
- Second item
- Third itemQuotes
You can now create a blockquote using Markdown by adding a greater than sign (>) before your text. It’s perfect for when you want to highlight a quote in your notes.
> This is a blockquoteLinks
Finally, Markdown allows you to create hyperlinks easily. You can create a link by wrapping link text in brackets ([ ]), and then wrapping the URL in parentheses (( )). For example:
[Visit Airlist](https://www.airlist.app)Export Options
- Copy to Markdown: You can now copy the current view to Markdown
- Print Current View: Print your current view directly from Airlist
- Export All Items: Export all items to JSON, Markdown, or print them
Quickly Filter Tags
Next, I’ve added a powerful new way to manage and interact with your tags: Click on a tag to create a temporary Saved Search. This feature will display all items associated with a particular tag. You can then save this new view for future reference or simply dismiss it once you’re done.
I’ve also worked on bug fixes and overall app enhancements to improve your user experience.
Your feedback is always welcome. Let me know if you have any questions or need help with the new features.
I’d would like to inform you about an upcoming change to the Airlist. Starting July 1, 2023, the Airlist web app will be deprecated and no longer supported. I understand that this may cause some inconvenience, but I believe this decision is necessary to ensure the continued improvement of Airlist.

Create a new item named “Call Mom”

Airlist for iPhone and iPad has a very powerful share extension thanks to SwiftUI.
But the share extension API is still only available in AppKit. So how do you do it in SwiftUI? Follow below…
We built Airlist for the web with Vue, which out of the box comes with its own global state management library.
So naturally, when building Airlist with SwiftUI, it made sense to follow the same paradigm (i.e. Redux). A global state variable that was passed around by an environmentObject.
At first, it went fantastic. Easy to maintain, simple to implement, and very fast… until it wasn’t.
…
For the new iOS app for Airlist, I am building it in (as much as I can) SwiftUI. For anyone coming from React (or in our case, we use Vue to build the web app), SwiftUI is a welcome change vs UIKit. Yet, at times can be frustrating. Often times problems are not documented, and not available via a Google Search.
Along the way I’ve had to solve many problems that, for anyone else building a real-world SwiftUI app, might find helpful. I’ll be documenting these solutions on this blog. They’ve been helpful to me, hopefully they are to you.

It’s been a little while since the last post and for good reason. We’ve been pretty busy.
There’s only one reason why we’d implement Sign In With Apple…

“Show me just what I need to see”
Airlist’s infinitely nested items gives you unlimited flexability. But what was that one thing I need to do? I remember putting it in last week? That’s where saved searches come in.
…
The Basics
Airlist is an outlining tool that is simple at its core yet advanced where you need it.
Your Airlist outline consists of nested bulleted lists of items. Each nested list can be infinitely deep easily helping you keep track of everything from your grocery list to your most advanced projects.
