Reorder, hide or group items in the sidebar

You can arrange the left sidebar around the way you work: change the order, hide pages you never open, and sort items under your own headings. Hiding an item only removes it from the sidebar. Nothing is deleted, and you can still reach the page through search.

Open the sidebar settings

1. 1
   Open Settings from the left sidebar.
2. 2
   Under Preferences choose Navigation. You'll see Menu Items: your sidebar laid out as groups, each with its items.

Change the sidebar

1. 1
   To hide an item, switch off the toggle on its row. Switch it on again to bring it back. Settings and Support can't be hidden; they show Always visible.
2. 2
   To reorder, drag an item by the dotted handle on its left. You can drop it higher or lower in the same group, or into a different group. Drag a group by the handle next to its heading to move the whole group.
3. 3
   Accounting has sub-pages. Click the arrow on its row (Expand sub-pages) to reorder them or hide the ones you don't need.
4. 4
   To rename a heading, click the pencil next to it, type the new name and press Enter.
5. 5
   To add your own heading, click Add heading at the bottom. A New Group appears for you to rename; drag items into it where it says Drop items here.
6. 6
   When you're happy, click Save changes in the bottom-right corner. Cancel puts everything back as it was.

Good to know

Show group headings switches the headings in the sidebar on or off. With it off, you get one plain list in your chosen order.

A heading you added can be removed with its × once it's empty. The built-in groups can't be removed, only renamed.

Reset to default brings back the original order, groups and names. Like every change here, it only takes effect when you click Save changes.

Your layout is saved to your account, so it follows you to other devices and to the phone menu. Team members each have their own.
