My favorite thing about Arc is that it helps me stay organized and focused, even when life and work get a little crazy. In this video I will show how to get the most out of Arc.

Watching every Arc-related video while I'm still not able to use it on Windows. Your videos are my favorite!

Richard here. Holy smokes, Brandon this is how every tech tutorial should be ... 'How I use (the tool)'. Absolutely brilliant. I've been using Arc for 6+ months, and I absolutely love it, but I suspected I was only using it to 60% capacity. You have filled in so many gaps. Highlights: Copy URL: Cmnd-Shift-C (NO WAY!!) ... Save Tab: Cmnd D ... Split Screen: Opt-click ... Filing split screens WHAT!! ... Open blank page in split screen: Cntrl+Shft+= (3-4 side by side) ... and Notes. I didn't know there were notes ... that can be used in a split screen ... and filed together!!! Mind blown! Thank you so much.

@GaelyneGasson Год назад

Thanks for this video. I still feel I'm learning and getting comfortable with it and some of the shortcuts you gave (like command S) will be put to use immediately. I'll be using a web app like Gmail in Arc and suddenly need to go to a new tab and I get a bit of anxiety until I remember to show it again. Not needing to use the mouse to do that will really help with that feeling of being trapped in the window I'm in. (It's hard to explain but I'm sure I'm not alone in sometimes needing that sidebar to appear!)

@efficientapp Год назад

Okay, I'm literally an Arc power user, but didn't even realize some of the things you mentioned here, well done on the presentation! LOVE the "hold down option + click" to get more use out of the split view. Also TOTALLY didn't realize you could rename a group of tabs, I was trying to rename them and then pin them, but renaming the group is a WAY better experience. Super nice job, great video my friend!

I’ve only been using PARA for 6 months and I keep forgetting I can use it everywhere. Thanks for the reminder and great video. One thing I can’t do is pull up Arc using Alfred? Haven’t tried the browser company yet.

Really helpful tips! For some reason, I don't see the "Blank Window" shortcut listed on the current version of Arc. Anyone else able to see "Blank Window" shortcut?

@chloelau8291 Год назад

Have you thought of instead sorting PARA into spaces instead? It is a lot cleaner and reduces a layer of folders.

@BrandonKBoswell 10 месяцев назад

That’s a great idea Chloe. In my scenario I was using spaces for contexts (work / home), but if I wasn’t then I would totally recommend this. Super clean!

@jfbmusic 4 месяца назад

Really enjoyed this, Brandon, thank you. Tying the Arc approach with PARA felt really natural, great integration and explanation. (One small detail: the fairly short looping theme playing in the background became a distraction pretty quickly…maybe a music bed without prominent melodies? Or my fave: no music at all. That's the musician in me getting drawn away from your voice and Arc tutorial. :-) )

@BrandonKBoswell 3 месяца назад

Thank you so much for the feedback. I recently switched to a better microphone setup which should relieve the feeling the mask the room tone. I will give no music a try and see what people think.

@ankurtoshniwal2549 10 дней назад

The fact that a browser requires a 20 minute tutorial to teach you how to organize your online life tells me it is creating more problems than it is solving.

Once they add markdown support to Notes, this will be nearly perfect

I am now on the waiting list for the browser, but I was curious to see the list of universities available for immediate access and wow, the universities with that agreement are the most prestigious ones. I can assure that the universities in South America are the best (I know them because I'm from there). The rest, I really like this video, this kind of video with this quality must to be more watched on RU-vid ❤

@lorenzorubino2195 Год назад

It has some potential, but requires more gestures implementation, kind of like the new Safari gestures. Considering the development pace, I think it will get there very quickly

@BrandonKBoswell Год назад

I'm still trying it out, but so far so good.

@RedRyz3n 5 месяцев назад

Arc is best for people who don't do a lot of multitasking with their browsers and who only use one main screen. If you use multiple screens and need multiple browser window open and most importantly want them to behave as though they were independent of the other windows, then Arc is probably not for you.

@BrandonKBoswell 5 месяцев назад

I hear what you're saying and I mostly agree, but do note that you can have multiple browser windows of Arc open on multiple screens. Also, their split screen support is really, really good.

@Glotaku 5 месяцев назад

Why wouldn’t you just open an arc window with a different profile…

@RedRyz3n 3 месяца назад

@@Glotaku Thats a horrible solution, you are saying I should create 4 individul profiles just to use this browser like eveery single other browser? Thats really unresonable.
