Incrementing Number or ID

[DaddySames 0]

Maybe this exists and I just can not find it.

I just want a simple auto incrementing number on my notes so I can keep them in order.

Nothing like that that I'm aware of.

What „Order“ do you mean ?

You get automatically the „created“ date. If you don’t overwrite it, you can sort notes by it.

If not, you can write a number at the beginning of each title, and increment it manually. Sort by title is available as well.

I solved this problem by starting the title of a note with a date in the format YYYYMMDD. Add an addtional number if more than one note is related to the same date if you want a specific sequence of your notes when sorted on title name. 
You may use the current date or date of creation. When writing journals or historical notes you may enter dates in te past or the future.
This also makes searching for notes in a certain time period much more easy.

I automated this way of working by using autotext apps. In my case Phrase Expres.
