# File your unsorted saves with To organize

> To organize lists every save without a category. Go through them one by one with Start organizing, or select several and file them together in a category.

To organize is the list of saves that don't have a category yet: things you filed **Later**, or saved in a hurry. Home shows how many are waiting on its first chip ("3 to organize").

## Open To organize

1. Tap **Home**.
2. Tap the first chip, such as **3 to organize**. The list opens with **3 waiting** at the top.

The widget's "to organize" count and the [Daily reminder](https://www.noodleassistant.com/docs/settings) open it too.

## File them one at a time

1. Tap **Start organizing**. The first save opens, with **1 of 3** at the top.
2. Read the save. Add a note in **Why did you save this?** (**What is this?** for your own photos) if you like.
3. Tap a category. If Noodle has a suggestion, it says "I'd file this one in" and the category, and that chip has a sparkle.
4. Tap the suggested tags you want to keep, or **×** to dismiss them. Type your own in **Add a tag**.
5. Tap **File and next**. The next save opens. On the last one it says **File and finish**.

Tap **Skip** to leave a save for another time.

## File several at once

1. On the To organize list, tap **Select**, or touch and hold a save.
2. Tap the saves to file together, or **Select all**.
3. Tap **Organize 2** (the number is how many you picked). The **Organize 2 items** sheet opens.
4. Pick a category. Tags you add under **Add tags** go on all of them.
5. Tap **Apply**. They all leave the list.

Tap **Clear** to stop selecting.

## Accept a single suggestion from the list

Under some saves, the list shows Noodle's suggested category with a sparkle, such as **Home**. Tap it to file that save there without opening it.

## Good to know

- When the list is empty, Noodle says **All tidy!**
- Want Noodle to file new saves by itself? Go to Settings → **Organizing** and set **Categories** to **Apply automatically**. It never changes a category you picked yourself.
- Filing from To organize works the same as the **File it** sheet on the [Save page](https://www.noodleassistant.com/docs/the-save-page).
