The described workflow uses a screen-edge trigger or keyboard shortcut to reveal notes, with a drag gesture to make one float over other windows. The page also details imports from several existing notes apps and says repeat runs skip items already copied. Assistant connections are described as able to add notes and check items, while reading notes stays off until allowed; the store download is labeled “Soon.”
