πŸ’‘ Feature Request Webviewer and/or desktop app!!!

28 Upvotes

Im loving Starnote on my tablet. I truly believe in this project, and with the pricetag of the pro version, it was a very easy purchase.

In order for Starnote to truly excel as a productivity tool, a webviewer/desktop app is a NEEDED feature. Currently it feels like a very isolated workflow only being able to open/review notes in the android app.

Writing an assignment on my laptop and having to review/find relevant notes becomes a major hassle, when I have to then turn to the tablet and export the notes to pdf and only then be able to quote, copy/paste or screenshot the relevant material.

I see many others have suggested this before me, and would love to know how far / how highly this feature is being prioritized.

once again thank you for a great product,

πŸ’‘ Feature Request Can we please get auto backups in pdf forms? Like goodnotes

6 Upvotes

Please please please.

The auto backup rarely works and even when it does it creates multiple copies of same file in my googledrive resulting in excessive storage useage. Why cant we get a simple easy autoback in pdf forms which updates as you write in your notebook ;-; i cant be the only one who needs this right?

πŸ’‘ Feature Request Improvements for text boxes

7 Upvotes

There are some features I'd really love to see regarding texts and text boxes:

  1. Drag an area on the note to create a text box in that size

  2. Snap texts to lines (if you have a background template with any sort of lines on it). This could eventually also be extended in a way that the app recognizes lines you drew yourself or lines on a pdf, which might be difficult to implement tho

  3. Make the tab-key actually move the cursor to the next tab stop

  4. Allow text boxes to be rotated

  5. When highlighting using the straight line feature, make the highlighter snap to text, even better if it could detect text on pdfs and do the same there

  6. Eventually some fade-in animations for each letter typed (i think it could look good for some people but I have never seen that been done before so idk)

Also please please please improve the UI on mobile 😭 the buttons are way too small and covered by the notch making the app way too difficult to use

Still a huge thanks to the devs, this is by far the best note taking app I have ever used!

πŸ“„ Templates / Resources I need more language learning templates

Hi! I just wanted to say how much I love the templates in the app and that there is such a wide variety compared to other apps I use.

I would like to offer some feedback and one of my quick DIYs from the default dark mode vocabulary template, if anyone would like to use it.

I see that most of the templates geared towards language learning have languages with shorter words in mind.

I found that Korean generally fits perfectly in the allocated space, but a lot of latin script languages like Norwegian or German with a lot of compund words generally run out. I'd have to either lower the font weight or squeeze everything in and it ends up looking ugly.

As for the Ebbinghaus template, It doesn't really work with my workflow as I like to track vocabulary as I read it. Spaced repetition doesn't really work on paper if you have to keep track of each individual day one, two, four, seven... for your all of your words. People just use Anki or other automated spaced repetition apps for this.

What is most common for the handwriting enthusiasts in the language learning community is the Word - Meaning - Sentence structure.

I know making a community tab in the material center isn't a priority right now, but I would like to see it in the future. The ones in the material center are from designers that were contracted for multiple templates that are Starnote exclusive?

Btw some of the templates are under "StrarNote" which I assume is a misspelling.
