How do I use the new Inbox feature ?

I read about your new Inbox feature, and then I made a Book named "Inbox", and put it into the root folder.
But I do not understand how to use this Inbox.
Thank you.

To see how that works, just select some text in a note or document and then tap the action button. The menu will show the option "Add Task to Inbox". Select that and then check the contents of your Inbox: you will find a new task with the selected text as title.

Basically, this is an extension of the action "New Task from Selection", which is available within a task list and converts the selected text to a new task in that same list. When your document is not in a task list, you will find "Add Task to Inbox" instead.

This "Inbox" feature is multilingual, because users in different countries give their inboxes different names. If your iPhone/iPad is set to a different language than English, Notebooks looks for a different title:

- German: "Eingang"
- French: "Á classer"
- Spanish: "Buzón de entrada"
