Quick Capture, widgets and Siri

Widgets for the Home Screen and Lock Screen

Open Nodbase once, and the widgets are ready in the gallery.

Add a widget

1. Touch and hold an empty spot on the Home Screen.
2. Tap “Edit” › “Add Widget”.
3. Search for Nodbase and choose a widget and a size.

For the Lock Screen, touch and hold it, tap “Customize” and add one under “Widgets”.

The widgets

• Nodi: one tap opens Nodi. In medium size you can also speak right away. Also for the Lock Screen.
• Speak: opens Capture with the microphone running. Small and for the Lock Screen.
• Card: shows your card. You switch profiles right in the widget, and tapping the card opens sharing. Small and medium.
• Share card: opens sharing your card directly. Small and for the Lock Screen.
• Brain: shows your brain and what’s new since you last looked. One tap opens Network Strength. Small and medium.

Good to know

• iOS hides your card, profile names and brain wherever it redacts content, for example in StandBy when your iPhone is locked.
• If you sign out, Nodbase deletes the widgets’ contents. They then ask you to open Nodbase.
• The Quick Capture control for Control Center, the Lock Screen and the Action button is described in Set up Quick Capture.
