Tip of the day: In #DEVONagent Pro, you can archive search results or send them to #DEVONthink. But after closing the search, you no longer have access to those results. Of course, you can run the search again, but there is a more efficient way to return to them. #productivity #research #tipoftheday #websearch #workflow https://www.devontechnologies.com/blog/20240409-devonagent-save-results
Tip of the day: Various types of documents can contain links, for example a saved web page, or a note with an URL or an email address.

Tip of the day: Smart groups are a good way to view items matching specific criteria, like all the flagged #PDFs in your #DEVONthink database. While it’s easy enough to make a smart group, if you find yourself doing the same search over and over, you can use it to create a smart group in a few clicks. #pkm #productivity #tipoftheday #workflow https://www.devontechnologies.com/blog/20240102-reuse-search-devonthink-smartgroup

Tip of the day: Scanning documents is a much needed function for many people, but you might not have a scanner available.
