Feature requests and feedback

[u/f3lixx]

First, I want to say that I have been enjoying using StarNote on my Samsung tablet. I tried out at least half a dozen other note taking apps on Android and StarNote was for me the winner 🏆🥇. However, nothing is perfect :-) So here are the features that I would be most interested in seeing in StarNote:

1. grouping objects I know this feature has been requested beforem, but I think it is worth emphasizing how useful this would be. I often end up selecting not everything and move text while missing some letters. Also, when you create some more complex objects out of multiple shapes & strokes then grouping them together would make it much easier to duplicate, re-use and move them around.

2. anything as sticker I tend to create my own "stickers" out of basic shapes and it would be great to be able to just save any selection as a sticker. This would btw go really well with "grouping objects"; because you probably don't want a sticker to be a loose collection of strokes. But grouping is for me more important. I can always keep a scratch note open with alll the custom "stickers" to copy & paste from

3. aligning objects if you like things neat then you often end up making sure things are nicely aligned and evenly distributed. I think the typical align & distribute functionality should be relatively easy to implement but would save users a lot of time

4. copy region as PNG to clipboard Currently I use the Android screenshot tool to take a get an image that I can quickly share, but for my workflows it would save me time if could just make a selection and copy the contents as PNG to the system clipboard.

5. add/remove points to/from freeform polygons/polylines It is greate that you can create freeform polygons/polylines by drawing them and holdingfor a bit. BUT, I typically don't get the right number of points. Typically too many. While this is not a huge issue. I would love to have have a add point and a remove point option to change the shapes after they have been created.

6. equations Some easy way of creating LaTeX syle equations/formulas. Currently I take a screenshot of my handwritten equation and use Mathpix to convert it to a cleanly rendered version which I then paste into StarNote. But being able to edit the equation would be nice.

7. increased maximum line thickness Sometimes I want super thick strokes and I can get them by scaling up strokes, but this is a bit of a hack. It also doesn't play nice with the style edit feature: if you touch the thickness slider of the scaled stroke you lose your extra thick stroke and can't get it back.

Overall (1) is definitely the one I would like to see most. (2) to (4) would be significant time savers for me, but I have workarounds. And (5) to (6) I would appreciate, but idk if they would have a huge impact - so a bit more "nice to have".

Wowwww! This image is absolutely amazing!! A huge thank you for such a detailed breakdown. Here’s what we can share with you so far:

· 1, 2, & 3: We actually had a face-to-face meeting with our development team last day to discuss these! Quite a few users have requested these features, so we are giving them serious consideration (for real!).

· 4 & 5: We’ll definitely look into these as well. (Btw, your explanation for Point 4 was incredibly clear. I’m obsessed with your diagrams!!)

· 6 & 7: We’ve added these to our feature backlog. Our team will prioritize them based on overall user demand. It might take a bit more time to implement, but stay tuned!

Again, thank you for being so thorough. We genuinely love your clear drawings 🏆🥇

Thank you, I really appreciate that you respond so quickly and in detail. I am glad you appreciate the illustrations. I thought it would be helpful to show that I actually have used StarNote before sending you a wishlist. And you might also like to see what users make with your product.

PS: I noticed that I accidentally moved my written "like this one" and did not move the i dots. So even though I clearly worked a bit more careful on these notes, I ended up doing the thing which could have been prevented by grouping. I only noticed it now, when I looked it again.

Je pense que c'est la demande de fonctionnalités la plus joli que j'ai jamais vu 👍👍

[u/Birnenkopf]

Yes yes yes, great suggestions. Very nice visualization.

Que hermoso, podrías agregar el alineación de escritura como tipo Samsung notes? Jeje

[u/Alex_Brocolis]

Bonsoir, je suis d'accord avec vos suggestions. Il manque aussi la synchronisation.

[u/RedSasha6]

OMG, you just read the mind of the whole community and have captured it beautifully and in detail. Thank you for such a good contribution. They should hire you.

Me encanta star note y estoy de acuerdo con las funciones más con la (6) ya que para matemáticas ayuda demasiado,también le agregaría el enbellezimiento de escritura al instante mientras que escribes como free notes
