How to view and restore note versions
Recollect automatically saves snapshots of your notes as you work, so you can look back at an earlier version or roll a note back if you change your mind. This is separate from Trash, which recovers notes you have deleted.
How versions are saved
A new snapshot is created automatically each time you close a note. Recollect keeps the 50 most recent snapshots for each note, and each one records the title, who made the change, and when.
Opening a note’s version history
Open the note, then click Note versions in the footer at the bottom of the note. You will see the list of saved snapshots, newest first.
Viewing and restoring a version
- View opens a snapshot so you can read it without changing anything.
- Overwrite replaces the current note with the snapshot, restoring that earlier version.
- Create New saves the snapshot as a separate note, leaving the current note untouched.
Version history is available to the note’s owner and is hidden while you are writing in Markdown mode. To recover a note you deleted entirely, see Restoring a deleted note instead.
