How do I view a list of untagged notes?

With the Folders extension, you can create "smart tags" that organize your notes according to pre-defined filters.

For example, suppose you wanted to see a list of all notes that do not have a tag associated with them. You can do this by creating a smart tag.

Creating A Smart Tag

Activate the Folders extension.
Within the Folders extension, click on Views, then press the + button.
Copy and paste the follow smart tag syntax:
```
!["Untagged", "tags.length", "=", 0]
```
Press enter on your keyboard.

At this point, you should see an item called "Untagged" under "Views". You can select this item to view a list of your untagged notes.

Smart tags can be used to construct any kind of simple query. The components of the smart tag syntax are as follows:

!: Indicates the start of a smart tag

[...]: A JSON array

The first item in the JSON array is the display label.
The second item is the note property you are targeting. This can be title, text, updated_at, created_at, tags, archived, pinned, and locked.
The third is the comparison operator.
And the last is the expected value.

Show all notes that have tags that start with the letter b.

!["B-tags", "tags", "includes", ["title", "startsWith", "b"]]

Show all notes whose title starts with Foo.

!["Foo Notes", "title", "startsWith", "Foo"]

Show notes that are archived.

!["Archived", "archived", "=", true]

Show notes that are pinned.

!["Pinned", "pinned", "=", true]

Show notes that are not pinned.

!["Not Pinned", "pinned", "=", false]

Show notes that have been updated within the last day.

!["Last Day", "updated_at", ">", "1.days.ago"]

Show notes whose text has more than 500 characters.

!["Long", "text.length", ">", 500]
