I think the app has come a long way, I'd be happy to submit a new logo for the next big milestone v3!

Thoughts?

Over 2 year I am develop FSNotes app, over 1000 commits pushed. I write code almost every day and this is really hard work.

FSNotes available for free in brew and GitHub. I love this app. One motivation point for me was AppStore sales, and this is now ruined by Apple.

This message written after 50 days awaiting approving my iOS app – FSNotes Manager.

50 days ago I received this message in AppStore Connect:

Many people with locked apps awaiting response from Apple. App store team silent from 1 to 3 month, and then unlock (?) reviewing process without any explanations. All these people paid for membership 99 $ and get nothing in results.

This is OK, App Store Team?

I am tried to connect via developers support page, and got same – nothing.

Hello Oleksandr,

I understand that you do not agree with the way the investigation is being carried out. However, until the investigation in to your account is competed no apps under your account will be reviewed.

I know that you would like information to share with your users regarding your app, but until the investigation is completed I will not have any updates or additional information to share.

Thank you for your continued patience throughout the investigation.

I think it's time to explain to the developers, what going on, Apple?

Please share and repost this.

At the end of closed issue #323, @jeff-h wrote as follows:

"I reckon it could be cool to have the sidebar folders listed in a dropdown at the top of the notes column when you hide the sidebar."

Because I normally use FSNotes with the sidebar closed, it would be helpful to have some indication of the currently-selected folder. A dropdown list, as suggested by @jeff-h, would be great. Another option might be an unobtrusive popover that provides pertinent information about a note including its folder.

I don't know enough about interface design to offer something specific, but just wanted to raise this as a possible enhancement.

Hey, I examined your project (great job by the way) and I can contribute with making a logo design. If you interested please contact me. I am waiting your feedback. Have a nice day! 😄

Hi!

Thanks for a great app! In version 2.9.5 aswell as 3.0 beta, whenever I hide notelist (using Cmd+shift+B) or selecting via meny, it minimizes ok, but when a try to restore it, nothing happends. I just see a vertical scrollbar to the left, and have to manually restore the sidebar by manually increase its size using mouse.

It has been working in earlier versions, perhaps a faulty setting or something?

TextEdit does this well, and I often use it solely for this feature.

NSFileVersion A snapshot of a file at a specific point in time. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/nsfileversion

View and restore past versions of documents https://support.apple.com/kb/PH25757

Many apps automatically save versions of documents as you work on them. At any time, you can browse through document versions and go back to an older version. You can also explicitly save a version.

A version is saved automatically every hour, or more frequently when you’re making many changes. A version is also saved when you open, save, duplicate, lock, rename, or revert a document.

Browse, restore, duplicate, and delete versions Open the document, then choose File > Revert To > Browse All Versions.

Click tick marks along the timeline to browse versions.

Display the version you want, then do one of the following:

To restore your document to this version, click Restore.

To duplicate this version in a new document, press and hold the Option key, then click Restore a Copy.

To delete this version, move the pointer to the top of the screen to show the menu bar, then choose File > Revert To > Delete This Version.

To leave your document as is, without changes, click Done.

Explicitly save a version Open the document, then choose File > Save.

To save the document using a different filename, location, or format, press and hold the Option key, then choose File > Save As.

Revert a document to the last opened version Open the document, choose File > Revert To, then choose Last Opened, Last Saved, or Previous Save.

I would love to be able to view all To Dos across all notes (or across notes within a folder).

Ideally it would show the ToDo line items in an extra note with a link to the note itself.

Anyone with good Javascript skills and some time? Would be cool to have browser extensions for FSNotes, like this one perhaps:

Save to nvALT saves pages from Chrome to nvALT. Pages are saved in clean Markdown. No fluff. https://github.com/mustpax/save-to-nvALT

When in an RTF note, if you indent a line by pressing tab, the font, colour and background colour all change unexpectedly (perhaps something to do with a markdown feature?).

Also, when you're at the end of a note and press the down arrow, under some circumstances the scrollbar appears and the document jumps up and down by a line, all from just pressing the down arrow key repeatedly. You can see this at the end of the screencast below.

I had to reboot my iMac Pro as safari was glitching with YouTube videos after the latest Catalina update (maybe nothing to do with the update as it has been working). After opening FsNotes everything looks to have disappeared. Attached is a screenshot from below my Library. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. L ee

Hello,

I recently started using FSnotes on Mac and iOS. The sync process is very erratic. I am using the latest versions from the respective app stores and sync via iCloud Drive FSNotes folder.

On the Mac, I see these folders pop up:

The iPhone notes are not updated if I make changes on the Mac. The iPad sync is also unreliable.

Appreciate any suggestions on how to fix this annoyance.

Congratulations to all the contributors and users of FSNotes. It has been a difficult year for the program, but in spite of everything FSNotes has celebrated its fifth anniversary. Version 6 of the application came out, even better and faster.

Now I'm still struggling with deep git integration, not everything is as good as I'd like it to be. After that a minor update is planned for iOS, with a major number, don't expect any new features, just pulling up the functionality to the macOS version.

In general, I am almost satisfied with everything, in the new year I plan to focus on stability and bug fixes. Of course it would be nice to be able to change themes, but we'll think about that later.

I can not miss the political issue, friends from the U.S., Great Britain, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Germany, and other coalition countries - thank you for being there!

And of course Putin – khuylo, glory to Ukraine! Happy new year! 😊

Describe your feature request

Alfred is beta testing a new built-in gallery for workflows: https://alfred.app/workflows/

The benefits are much higher visibility and auto-updating etc. It would be helpful perhaps for people to "discover" FSNotes or make it easier for existing FSNotes users to manage their installed workflow.

See https://www.alfredforum.com/forum/51-submit-your-workflows-to-alfred-gallery/ for details. The main issue I see is that "New titled note from clipboard" uses python which is not installed by default anymore, but the code is easy to change (the only function it uses is urllib.quote).

Additional context This concerns macOS.

Description

macOS input methods usually take over the keyboard until some text is "committed" to the app you're typing in. FSNotes seems to break that.

To Reproduce

1. Start a new note
2. Using the Japanese input method, hit the five keys K A N J I

The display will jump from かんじ to 漢字

4. Hit ESC

What you typed will disappear from the note and the focus will jump to the search field.

Expected behavior

The display jumps back to かんじ and you continue editing.

FSNotes version

6.0.5

macOS/iOS version

12.6.2

Additional context

This works in nvALT.

Description

Undo/redo is broken for me on iOS.

To Reproduce

1. Edit some text using iOS features
2. Cut a section
3. Paste it elsewhere
4. Type some new text

Tap with three fingers to bring up the iOS edit menu

1. Undo multiple steps
2. It will probably mess up
3. Redo several times
4. It will mean up some more

Danger: your text will be messed up and possibly some text will be unrecoverable and lost.

Expected behavior

• undo/redo should be reliable!

FSNotes version

5.0.4

macOS/iOS version

16.1.2

Additional context

Reminds me of #408 #474 #531 #563 etc

The content in the syntax "== ==" is not highlight The content in the syntax "== ==" is not highlighted, which is a little imperfect for taking notes. Writing in HTML can achieve the same effect, but it is not fast enough. Thank you for the author's comments.

Additional context Add any other related information here. macOS or iOS?

Description

Notes created in desktop app (v.6.0.4) with tags without spaces after the tags or not recognised by mobile iOS app v.5.0.4.

What does it mean? When you select a folder with dedicated notes (i.e. define context) the related tags will not be rendered (see details below)

To Reproduce

1. Go to desktop app v.6.0.4
2. Create folder "MyFolder"
3. Create two notes (see below)

# Title
#tag

Text

# Title 2
#foo #bar

Text text2

please note, I haven't added spaces at the end of tag and bar tags

As you can see desktop app rendered all tags for "MyFolder" 5. Go to mobile app v. 5.0.4 6. Select "MyFolder" folder

As you can see mobile app didn't render any tags for "MyFolder". 7. Go to note with title "Title" and add a space at the end of #tag tag, like this #tag 8. Check rendered tags on mobile app again 9. Go to note with title "Title 2" and add a space at the end of #bar tag, like this #bar

All expected tags have been rendered by FSNotes mobile app

Expected behavior

All tags are rendered for both apps: mobile and desktop.
