Quick Notes on iOS 15 is a new feature that dropped with iPadOS 15 that allows users to use the iPencil or finger to make a quick note, no matter what iPad app they are using, and add it to an existing or new note. The idea of making a note is jotting something down to remember for later, which is exactly what Quick Notes on iOS 15 takes advantage of. Unfortunately, this feature is yet to come to iPhones, so we will be looking at some of the best ways you can use Quick notes on iPadOS 15.

Going to the file explorer inside your Notes app will allow you to find the Quick Notes folder. From here, you can carry on working on a previous Quick Note, move it to a full note or delete it.

For example, if you use #Chapter1 for the Chapter 1 heading of your note, the search will take you straight to it.
