Native application Notes a macOS it is clear that it does not compare at all with Evernote, OneNote or other similar applications that are very complex and offer many options.
Notes however, it is characterized by simplicity, almost non-existent consumption of resources note synchronization between iPhone, Mac si iPad it is done almost in real time.
Apple not left behind this application, and on macOS Monterey brings it a little closer to what a productivity application should mean, in which we keep important notes from projects, lines of code and other items to be displayed in a more readable way than at present.

Notes in macOS Monterey
1. Tags
Until now, the only method for sorting notes in the Notes application was the folders displayed in the bar on the left. There are many situations when a note could be included in several "categories" / folders, so we can find it faster. This is impossible. That is, a note in the Notes application cannot be part of multiple folders.
The new option "Tags”Brings us a new way of organizing notes with the help of tags. For example in the notes we can use #Monterey, #Whatever. These tags are immediately assigned to the note and will be present in the bar on the left under folders. So when we access a tag we will have quick access to all notes with that tag.
For me, it is a simpler and faster sorting option, than organizing the notes from Notes into folders.
2. Quick Notes in Hot Corners
Another novelty of the Notes application on macOS Monterey is the option "QuickNote", Through which users of Mac can quickly add notes by simply pressing the key combination (shortcut) Fn + Q
or by moving the cursor to the lower right corner of the screen. In the "Hot corners".
Text added in QuickNote it will be saved in real time and can be found in the Notes application in a dedicated category. QuickNote.
3. Notes Options
In addition to the options in the old version, new options for QuickNote and notifications in case we are mentioned in a shared note.
Resume last Quick Note
When accessing Quick Note we have the possibility to choose whether to open a new note or to continue with the previous notes.
Allow mention notifications
This option allows us to receive notifications when our name is mentioned in a shared note. Not necessarily related to Quick Notes is a very useful option in application development. Especially for teamwork.
Hope Apple to further develop this application over time and become a real alternative to OneNote si Evernote.
Query, as I do to remove the option that in the lower right area I get the quick notes, it is awkward to minimize a video.
Greetings and thank you very much.
