You're browsing Safari on your iPhone, and you see a recipe or a crafting project that you want to make. Usually, you would leave Safari, open Notes, type or paste the information, and return to where you started. With iOS 16, you can now add notes from an app without switching apps, thanks to Quick Notes, a feature that previously could only be used on an iPad or Mac. Adding Quick Notes is even faster when you use the Share Sheet. We'll show you how to add Quick Note with Share Sheet.

How to Use Share Sheet to Add Quick Note
The menu you see when you share something on your iPhone is called a Share Sheet. You can add Quick Notes to your Share Sheet so that any time you see the Share icon, you can add that content to a Quick Note. Things you can add to Quick Notes include Safari pages, documents in your Files app, or even photos or videos.
Be sure to upgrade your iPhone to iOS 16 before completing these steps. After you've completed these steps, be sure to sign up for our free Tip of the Day newsletter to check out more Quick Note tips.
- Open an app with the content that you want to add to Quick Notes. I will be using the Photos app as an example.
- Choose a photo.
- Tap the Share icon.
- Scroll down and tap Edit Actions…
- Under Other Actions, tap the green plus next to Add to New Quick Note.
