What is the home board?
Updated over a month ago

Your home board is the first thing you'll see in Milanote when you sign up. It's your private space to organise all your boards in Milanote. Understanding your home board is essential for getting started with Milanote, but don't worry—it's easy!


Unique features of the home board

  • The home board cannot be shared, even with people on your team. You won't see the share button on your home board.

  • When boards are shared with you, they'll end up on the home board in "Unsorted" on the right of your home board. Then, you can manually place them anywhere.

  • The home board is the default location for images saved with the Milanote web clipper.

Getting to the home board

You can always get to the home board via the navigation on the top left. On mobile, you can hit the back button at the top of the app until you are back home.
