In Saga 1.2, we added a new element, the Link. When you paste a URL into a note it will be automatically converted into a link element with an image preview.

Link element

A link is displayed by default as a card with a title, a description and an image. And of course if you tap it, it will open it in a browser.

With the 3 dots you can customize the link. Use a big, medium (default), small image or simply display the URL.

Link menu
Big & Medium
Small & URL only

Links can be helpful in notes, for example adding the dog school website to the notes about dog training.

Or adding links to a list of activities.

Activities with links

Or just saving some recipes.

Recipe links

Also links to videos like Youtube or posts on Instagram can be saved.

We hope you enjoy the new link element with the image preview. Happy noting and stay organized!

What’s next?

We are already working on a super exciting new feature for the next version, so stay tuned!
