Tip of the day: There are various ways to merge individual work steps into a workflow and execute them automatically. One option is to use the smart rules in #DEVONthink.

Tip of the day: If you use a Mac and an iPad at the same time, Universal Control allows you to control both devices from a single keyboard and mouse or trackpad. You can use both devices perfectly together while retaining their individual capabilities. Here we’ll show you this feature. #devonthink #devonthinktogo #ios #macos #pkm #productivity #tipoftheday #workflow https://www.devontechnologies.com/blog/20231128-use-universal-control

Tip of the day: Apple’s Reminders is a great application for keeping track of what’s done and what still needs to be done. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could create a reminder for items in #DEVONthinkToGo?

Tip of the day: When working in #DEVONthink, it is not unusual to have more than one database open, navigating back and forth between groups. As you open, close, create, and edit documents, it’s not uncommon to eventually lose track of something. Fortunately, smart groups can help corral these files. #pkm #productivity #tipoftheday #workflow https://www.devontechnologies.com/blog/20220712-todays-files-devonthink

Tip of the day: Many people use tags as a way to add some context to their documents. We have blogged on the subject more than once, but one option some people may not be aware of is nested (or hierarchical) tags. These are tags with child tags, or related tags within tags. Here’s how you can make and use them in #DEVONthink. #pkm #productivity #tagging #tipoftheday https://www.devontechnologies.com/blog/20220809-nested-tags

Tip of the day: We have had some requests from people that want to use #DEVONthinkToGo only for capturing data, not for carrying databases around with them. They just want to capture, sync, then clean out the mobile database. Our sync is a mirroring sync, so this isn’t possible on its own. However, it is possible if you’re refiling the items on another device. #devonthink #pkm #productivity #tipoftheday https://www.devontechnologies.com/blog/20210709-devonthink-only-for-capture
