**Note**

Notes are intended for short notes and information for your group members. The text of a note cannot be formatted.
If you want to share information with your group and format the text or add images, use the *[posts](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/churchtools-modules/posts/24-main/)*.

After you have created your note, it will be displayed in the *Notes* area.
You can use the *context menu* of the note to call up a direct *link* (1) to the note and *edit* (2) or *delete* (3) the note.

**Tip**

The notes are also displayed in the *overview* (1) of your group and you can also *create* a *new note* here (2) or call up the *context menu* (3) of your notes.
