title: Pinned Notes and Folders
description: Keep important notes and folders at the top of Library
---

Pinned items appear in the **Pinned** section at the top of the Library root. You can pin both notes and folders, then collapse the section when you do not need it.

## Pin from Library

Long-press a note or folder and choose **Pin**. Repeat the action and choose **Unpin** to remove it from the section.

## Pin an Open Note

While editing a regular note, open the options sheet and choose **Pin** or **Unpin**. The same actions are available in the Command Bar while the note is open.

Pinning is stored in the note's frontmatter:

```yaml
---
pinned: true
---
```

Changing this value to `false` unpins the note. Folder pinning is stored in Octarine's workspace metadata rather than inside a note.

## Open a Pinned Item

Return to the workspace root in Library and expand **Pinned**. Tap a pinned note to edit it or a pinned folder to browse it. The item remains in its original folder; pinning only creates a convenient shortcut.

#### Quick Answers

### Where is the Pinned page on iOS?

Pinned notes and folders now appear in a collapsible **Pinned** section at the top of Library instead of on a separate page.

### Does pinning move a note?

No. The note stays in its original folder and gets a shortcut in Library.
