# Summary Library with Search, Tags and Export > Keep every summary in one searchable library in SumAI, with favorites and tags. Export to PDF or Markdown, and keep your library across devices. - Source: https://getsumai.app/features/library-and-export/ - Last updated: 2026-11-12 - About: SumAI: YouTube & PDF Summary, an AI summarizer app for iPhone and iPad **All you learn. In one place.** Your summaries are kept in the SumAI library, where you can search them, mark favorites and add tags. Export a summary as PDF or Markdown when you want it in your notes, and use the optional Sign in with Apple to keep the library across your devices. ## Highlights - **Search.** Find a summary again by searching your library instead of scrolling for it. - **Favorites and tags.** Star what matters and tag summaries by subject, course or project. - **PDF and Markdown export.** Export a summary as a PDF to share, or as Markdown to paste into a notes app. - **Share and copy.** Send a summary to someone, or copy it into a message or document. - **Across your devices.** Optional Sign in with Apple keeps your library safe across devices. - **Share in from anywhere.** Add to the library straight from YouTube or Safari with the share sheet. ## A summary you cannot find is a summary you did not make Most of the value of a summary arrives later: the week before the exam, the morning of the meeting, the day someone asks, "what was that video you mentioned?" That only works if you can find it again. SumAI keeps your summaries in a library built for that moment. ## Search, favorites and tags - **Search** when you remember a word or a title. - **Favorites** for the handful you return to constantly. - **Tags** for everything else. A tag per course, client or project turns a long list into a few short ones. A simple scheme that works: one tag for the area (`#work`, `#study`) and one for the topic (`#ai`, `#biology`). SumAI's App Store screenshots show exactly this kind of tagging. SumAI 2.0 also added **bulk delete**, for clearing out summaries you no longer need. ## Getting summaries out A library should not be a cage. SumAI exports in two formats: | Format | Best for | | --- | --- | | **PDF** | Sharing with someone, printing, or filing with course materials | | **Markdown** | Pasting into a notes app, a wiki or a document, with headings and lists intact | You can also **share** a summary through the iOS share sheet or **copy** its text. [Mind maps](https://getsumai.app/features/mind-map-generator/) are shared as images, and the [transcript](https://getsumai.app/features/youtube-transcript/) is ready to copy. Markdown is worth a word if you have not used it. It is plain text with simple marks for headings and lists, which is why it travels well between apps. Notes tools such as Obsidian and Notion work with it. ## Getting things in The fastest way to build the library is the share sheet. In the **YouTube** app or **Safari**, tap Share and choose SumAI. The video or article goes straight in, without copying a link or switching apps first. ## Keeping it across devices Sign in with Apple is optional. If you use it, SumAI keeps your library safe across your devices, so a summary made on your iPhone on the train is there on your iPad at your desk. If you prefer not to sign in, the app works without an account. ## One library for three kinds of source Videos, articles and PDFs all land in the same place. That is more useful than it sounds: the lecture, the paper it was based on and the article that criticizes it can share a tag and sit together, each with its own summary, mind map and flashcards. ## How to export a summary as Markdown or PDF 1. **Open the summary.** Find it in your SumAI library, using search or a tag if you have many. 2. **Choose export.** Export the summary as **PDF** or **Markdown**, or use share or copy. 3. **Send it where you need it.** Save the PDF to Files, or paste the Markdown into the notes app you use. ## Frequently asked questions ### Can I export summaries from SumAI?
