What Inspect is for
Inspect (/inspect) is the place to browse captured content chronologically. It complements Search: Search finds needles; Inspect lets you scroll the timeline, filter, and open full detail for a single item.
Browsing and filtering
- The view orders captures in time so you can move forward or backward through your day.
- Filter by app to hide noise from unrelated applications.
- Select an item to see full detail. complete text, metadata, and navigation affordances the product exposes for that record type.
Coming from Search or Ask
- Search result citations can deep-link into Inspect with the cited item in context so you verify wording and surrounding capture data.
- Quick Ask answers include citations; following them opens the relevant record in Inspect so every claim is checkable against source material.
Workflow tip
When a search result snippet is ambiguous, open it in Inspect to see the full frame of reference before you rely on it in external work.
Deep links
Inspect is the natural destination for deep links from other parts of the app. Bookmarks or shared internal links (where the product supports them) should resolve to a stable item view inside Inspect.
