Pages & nesting

Every account comes with a built-in Page — a clean, blocks-based note you can fill with anything. Type "/page" inside any note to create a page within a page, just like Notion, and follow the trail at the top to see where you are.


Page is the blank-canvas Collection that ships with every account. It's a plain note with a title and a body — no numbers to fill in, nothing to track — just somewhere to write. Use it for notes, docs, plans, a wiki, anything. And because a Page's body is the full block editor, you can drop in headings, lists, checkboxes, images, and links — and other pages.

Your built-in Page

Page is already there when you sign up — open it from your Collections like any other. It's yours: rename it, give it a different emoji, even add Properties to it if you want to start tracking something on your pages.

Create a page inside a page

This is the Notion move. Inside any note, type / and choose Page (or type /page). A brand-new page is created inside the one you're in, a link to it drops into your note, and you're taken straight into the new page to start writing.

My trip plan
  Type "/" → Page
  ──▶  📄 Untitled   ← a link appears here, and the new page opens

You can do this as deep as you like — a page inside a page inside a page. Each new page lives under the one you made it from, so your notes can grow into a whole tree instead of one endless document.

/page works in any note, not just on a Page — type it in a journal entry, a workout's notes, anywhere the block editor is, and you'll get a nested page there too. Every page you make this way is a Page.

Find your way with the trail

At the very top of every page is a breadcrumb trail showing exactly where you are:

📄 Page  /  Trip plan  /  Packing list
  • The first item is the Collection (📄 Page) — tap it to see all your top-level pages.
  • The middle items are the pages above this one — tap any to jump back up.
  • The last item is the page you're on now.

So no matter how deep you go, you always know the path back — and one tap returns you to any level above.

Filed in a folder? If you've put the page in a sidebar folder, the trail shows the folder path instead — 📁 Projects / 📁 Games / Escape History — so it always names where the page lives. Open that page and its folder pops open in the sidebar with the page highlighted (and highlighted in Favorites too, if you've starred it).

Where nested pages live

A page you create with /page lives under its parent, reached through the link in the note or the trail at the top — it doesn't also clutter your main Page list. Open your Page Collection and you'll see your top-level pages; the ones nested inside them stay tucked under their parent, where you put them.

Delete takes the whole branch

Delete a page and everything nested inside it goes to Trash with it — its sub-pages, and their sub-pages, all together. Restore the page later and the whole branch comes back exactly as it was.
