Most of these settings are synced across all your devices, so you only have to apply them once.

Night Theme

The theme that will be used when your appearance mode is currently on Night

Customize Behavior

These preferences the default interactions with the app:

Default Sort Order

Change which sort order you prefer your cards to be in by default. 'Home' and 'Junk' views will always be sorted by 'Recent' by default so you can discover new / edited cards.

Spellcheck

Date Format

Switch between dates being formatted as Day/Month/Year and Month/Day/Year. This is used for the natural language input when searching for dates in the Universal Search or titling cards with Date Targeted automatically being applied.

New Card Visibility

When new cards are created, should they default to being Priority cards that appear in the sidebar outline? If you would prefer not, you can set change this to be Visible.

Clickbindings

Regular means that when you single click on a card's name it opens that card in the Preview, while a double-click opens that card in the Noteboard. Inverted does the reverse. Useful for people that generally don't open cards in the Preview and most of the time just want a card to open in the Noteboard when they click it.

Solo Mode

Turn Solo Mode on to disable collaboration features in the interface for a less-cluttered experience if you are only ever using Supernotes on your own.
