The Note Tool can be found in the Toolbox, on the lower left, right above the Hand Tool. The purpose of the Note Tool is to attach little notes to your .psd files. Think of it like attaching a Post-It to a paper report. There are two versions of Photoshop Notes:
text and audio
The Note Tool is often overlooked, or hardly used but it can be extreamly helpful. This is the Note's Tool:
To create a text note, click on the Note Tool when it is shaped as a sheet of notepaper. Your mousepointer will now become a note icon.
Now click anywhere on your document. A note window will popup. If you look just below the top menu of Photoshop, you will see how you can adjust the author, font, font size, and colour of the note. Adjusting the colour could be useful for sorting your notes. Like use red for notes to someone else that will use your file, and white for the settings you used.
But you can also make audio notes, you will need a working mic for this. Add a audio note the same way like a text note, but now click on start and you can speak in your message. If you are finished you can press stop. Double click the note to hear the message
You can drag and drop your note around like any other object, and double clicking will allow you to edit and view.
But all these notes can get in the way, so to hide your notes from view, go to View->Extras and your notes will disappear. They’re still there, just temporarily invisible. You can toggle them on and off this way at any time. If you add another note, they will also reappear.
As you can see a note are a very handly tool that can be used to save your settings, or to explain someone what you did in your document, like a tutorial inside a .psd
