Using DEVONthink To Go's Help

With the release of DEVONthink To Go 4, we substantially increased the power and utility of the application. But we also revised and improved the built-in Help. It contains information about the app, from an introduction on the basic elements to specific features. You’ll find the Help in Settings > Help. DEVONthink users may also notice a familiar structure to it:

• Getting Started: This introductory chapter shows a variety of use cases for DEVONthink To Go, the basics elements you’ll work with, a quick tour of the parts of the interface, things to consider when building a database, thoughts on external AI and its integration, and a few resources.
