The app now lets you open Markdown files in a tabbed preview space, switch between files, edit from the preview, and save only when there are changes.

  1. Open the app and choose Manage.
  2. Find the Markdown file you want from the searchable list.
  3. Use the Manage button to open the file in the preview area.
  4. Open more files to create tabs, then switch between them as you work.
  5. Use Edit when you want to make changes, then Save when the file is ready.

What this means for you

You can now review several Markdown files without losing your place. Each managed file opens in its own tab, so you can move between notes, references, and drafts while keeping the file list tidy.

Best way to use it

  1. Start on the Manage page when you want to work with existing Markdown files.
  2. Open the first file with Manage and wait for the preview to appear.
  3. Open another file when you need it; the preview area keeps both files available as tabs.
  4. Switch to Edit when a file needs changes, then use Save after you finish.
  5. Close tabs you no longer need; if a tab has unsaved edits, the app will ask before closing it.

This update is designed for focused Markdown review sessions where you need to compare, update, and save files without jumping back and forth between separate pages.

How tabs fit into daily work

Tabs are useful when one note depends on another. You might keep a project plan open while updating a meeting summary, compare two drafts before merging ideas, or check a reference file while editing a checklist. Each file stays available in the preview area, so you can switch context without returning to the file list every time.

Use tabs deliberately instead of opening everything at once. Start with the file you plan to edit, then open only the supporting notes that help the current task. When a file is finished, save it and close the tab so your open files stay readable.

A cleaner save habit

The save button is most useful when it matches your intent. Review changes in preview, make sure the note still says what you need, and save only after the edit is complete. This gives you a simple rhythm for Markdown maintenance: open the file, make focused edits, save the finished version, and close what you no longer need.

Use it well

Turn this update into a smoother Markdown habit.

Try the improvement with one active file before changing your whole routine. Open a note you already use, follow the steps above, and notice where the workflow feels faster, clearer, or easier to repeat. Small changes are easier to keep when they solve a real task you already have.

After the first pass, apply the same approach to related notes, drafts, or project files. Keep names clear, remove anything that no longer belongs in your active files, and return to the update whenever you need a quick reminder of the best way to use the feature.
