Do you constantly forget what you've written in your notes?

Want to refresh your mind with book notes you've taken in the past?

If so, Daily Random Note is for you.

How to use

You can create Random Instances, where you define which folders to query files from, and even filter using tags.

Each Random Instance will open a random file according to your specifications, at the time of the day you define (this might be helpful if you're a night owl and don't want to see your random notes at midnight).

At the reset time, obsidian will open all your random notes in new tabs.

Here's an example of how your settings should look like:

In case you don't want the daily feature and just want to read a random note of yours, that's possible using the ribbon icon (see figure below).

Daily Random Note was built to solve my own challenges, so it’s tailored to my needs. If you find a bug or would like a new feature, don’t hesitate to email me at [email protected]. The repo is public, so feel free to contribute!
