**Answer:** Write #tags anywhere in a note. Everyone sees them highlighted. Searching and filtering by tag needs Leaf Pro.

## Steps

1. Type `#` and a word in a note's title or text, like `#ideas`.
2. Search for `#ideas` to see every note with that tag.

## Free vs Pro

| | Free | Leaf Pro |
|---|---|---|

Tags live in your note's text, so they need no setup and move with the note.
