Notes are the catch-all. Packing lists, restaurant shortlists, train routes you copied from a blog post — anything that doesn't deserve its own tab lives here. Edit live with the group, or keep some notes private to you.

A shared note with live cursors, a checklist, and an inline image.
Live co-editing
Open the same note as a friend and you'll see their cursor in real time, named and colored. Type at the same time — Globe handles the merging. It's the same kind of editor you're used to from Google Docs or Notion.
What you can add
- Rich textBold, italic, headings, bullet lists, numbered lists, dividers, quotes, code blocks.
- ChecklistsTap to check off. Useful for packing lists where each member ticks their own row.
- ImagesDrop in a photo, resize by dragging the corner. Images live with the note, not in the trip's photo album.
- LinksPaste a URL — Globe expands it into a clickable card with title and favicon.
Pinned & private notes
Pin the most-used notes to the top of the list — usually 'Packing' and 'Useful info'. Mark a note 'Private' and only you can see it; perfect for personal packing lists or surprise plans for the group.
Versions & undo
Globe keeps a 14-day edit history per note. If someone deletes a paragraph by accident, the version dropdown lets you roll back without losing the rest.
Pro tips
- Start with a 'Useful info' note — visa, currency, plug type, emergency numbers. It pays off mid-trip.
- Private notes are great for surprises. The trip never sees them.
