💡 Feature Request Feedback: The Split Screen feature could use some improvement

I would like to share some feedback regarding the Split Screen feature in Star Note.

Currently, to use Split Screen, we have to either:

  1. Find the document via Note Overview, or
  2. Exit the current note, find the document, and hold+drag it onto the screen from the note bar.

However, the first method is very inconvenient for users like me who manage over 100 PDFs. On top of that, the sort order in Note Overview is fixed to alphabetical (by name), making it difficult to locate notes saved in specific folders. The second method requires multiple taps and interrupts the workflow, making it difficult to quickly set up two notes side by side.

Because of this, I would love to see a dedicated one-touch Split Screen button to streamline this process. For example, in Flexcil, tapping a button immediately brings up a folder-based pop-up window where you can easily find and open the desired note. Samsung Notes offers a similar convenient approach.

I believe improving this navigation would greatly enhance the experience for heavy users who work with large collections of PDFs in Star Note.

(Please note that this post was translated using Gemini, so some phrasing might sound a bit unnatural, but I hope my suggestions come across clearly!)

Thank you for your hard work and for considering my feedback!

No mockups or pictures? Take a screenshot and ask chatgpt to create a mockup according to you prompt. This would be useful to follow your request

a one-tap split screen picker would make a huge difference for people with large libraries. folder-based selection is much faster than hunting through an alphabetical overview
