Media Card

The media card is your personal library. Use it to track what you're reading, watching, or listening to — and record your reaction while it's still fresh. Over time it becomes a searchable archive of everything you've consumed and what you thought about it.

How to Create

Press n to open the New Card menu, or the number key matching Media's position in your enabled card types (typically 5).

1. Tap New Card from anywhere in the app.
2. Choose Media from the card type list.
3. Fill in the title and any details — then save.

The Media Point

The Related point (Point 3) on a media card holds the structured details specific to what you're tracking:

• Kind — Book, Film, Album, or Podcast.
• Status — Want to, In Progress, or Done.
• Creator — Author, director, artist, or host.
• URL — A link to the item (Goodreads, Letterboxd, Spotify, wherever).
• Review — A rich-text field for your own notes, rating, or reaction.

The review field supports full rich text — write a quick one-liner or a proper review. Either works.

Tips

• Want to list. Set status to "Want to" and your unread/unwatched pile lives in one place. Filter by Kind to see just your book queue.
• Log as you go. Create the card when you start something and update the review field as you finish. In Progress cards are a good reading list.
• Assign to a deck. Add media cards to a deck like "2026 Books" or "Watched This Year" to build themed collections. See Decks for how deck assignment works (Point 4 on the card).
• Link back to source. Paste the URL so you can jump straight to the item — useful for podcasts and articles you want to revisit.
