Choose a simple note system

Organise notes by subject first, then by date or topic. A simple folder such as Maths/2026-09-algebra-notes is easier to keep than a complicated system with too many categories.

Use the same naming pattern each week so search works later.

Turn photos into useful notes

Use Image to Text for clear photos of typed notes, board text, or printed handouts. If you need to keep the photo as evidence or a page record, use Image to PDF.

After OCR, rewrite the extracted text in your own notes. This helps learning and catches OCR mistakes.

Weekly cleanup

Once a week, move screenshots and downloads out of the phone gallery or Downloads folder. Delete duplicates and keep the clearest version.

Keep assignment files separate from study notes so final submissions are easier to find.
