Organizing with Folders

Folders List

What You See

When you open Folders from the Vault Hub (or tap the folders icon from any list screen), you see:

  • A search bar at the top to filter folders by name
  • A list of folder cards, each showing:
    • A folder icon in a colored circle
    • The folder name
    • The item count (e.g., "3 items")
    • A menu icon (⋮) with options
  • A floating "New Folder" button at the bottom right

If you have no folders, an empty state appears: "No folders yet — Create a folder to organize your vault items."
