# How can I use Attached Notes?

Attached Notes are user-added notes connected to any annotation — Shapes, Stamps, Images, Audio Recordings, and more. They keep extra detail tucked away so your script stays uncluttered, and they [transfer](https://help.scriptation.com/en/article/how-do-i-transfer-my-notes-1khpcd8/) along with the annotation they're attached to.

The Attached Note lives inside a discreet yellow sticky:

##### Creating an Attached Note

**Tap** your annotation once to open its options (two-finger click on Mac), then tap the **Note** icon.

After typing, copy/pasting, or using [Siri](https://help.scriptation.com/en/article/how-to-use-siri-to-dictate-notes-4wzd1u/) or [Scribble](https://help.scriptation.com/en/article/using-scribble-on-ipad-vl9xrr/) to take your note, tap **Done**.

The annotation now shows a yellow Sticky Note icon that holds your note:
