Glean Mobile - Collections

Use Collections to organize your Glean Events in a way that is meaningful to you.

You can create as many Collections as you like: you might set up a Collection for each class or semester, or use Collections to help manage your study and review process:

Home tab vs. Collections tab

When you launch Glean, you'll see two different tabs at the bottom of the screent: 

1

"Home"

2

"Collections"

The Home tab shows all of your Events. 

By default, Events are listed chronologically, with the most recent Event at the top. 

The  Collections tab lets you group and organize your Events any way you please.
