Q. How do I use the Quick Settings panel?
A. Swipe down from the top of the screen twice to open the Quick Settings panel, then tap the edit (pencil) icon to add this app’s tile. Once added, you can tap the tile from any screen to instantly open a new memo. This eliminates the need to find and launch the app, so you can capture ideas the moment they come to mind.
Note: The display and steps may vary depending on your device.

A. The content you enter in the note editing screen is automatically saved when you close the screen (e.g., by pressing Back or exiting). There is no need to press a save button.
In addition, even if your device goes to sleep or you switch to another app while editing, your input is preserved, so you won’t lose any unfinished notes.
