A key advantage of digital over paper is ⌘F. If I could Find In Document, Find In All Documents, and _especially_ find handwritten notes through Spotlight integration, I’d subscribe in a hot minute.

Notes rarely exist in a vacuum. They are usually related to something that you are working on (probably tracked in Actions) or a meeting/ event that you attended (probably existing in Timepage). Right now you can put all of these things on the same day in Timepage, but this is only marginally useful. I’d love to see * an Action task (or even list) with all of the related Flow notes and Timepage events linked * a meeting in Timepage linked to my related Flow notes and Actions tasks or lists. Heck, the apps even know what meeting I’m in. Why not pre-tag the notes that I’m taking at that time to the Timepage event? * a Flow note with tags to the related Timepage events and Flow notes. Without this integration, the notes give me little benefit over my paper notebook (except maybe the ability to search them). The power to me is in being able to make links between ideas, actions, events and the thoughts that I had in the moment that I felt were important enough to jot down in a note.

Ability to add text would be very useful!

I use also the app Actions sometimes I have a reminder like “work on presentation” and I have the detailed notes in the other app. It would be great if I could attach a direct link to the document with the detail notes

I recently changed jobs and I wanted to delete multiple notes and I realized that I had to delete one by one. I which there was an option where we could simple select multiple documents at the same time and delete them

Flow’s pencil strokes look blurrier and less realistic than its other tools — they’re good, but they look the most “computer-generated” by comparison. To be more specific: the grain of the pencil strokes looks somewhat predictable and algorithmic, as if it’s following a repeating set of dark/light patterns. Similarly, the grain and texture of the strokes appear blurry/out-of-focus, even when zoomed out (especially in comparison to Linea and Tayasui Sketches Pro apps on my iPad Pro). I would love to be able to draw with sharper strokes that look more “stippled” than smudged. Personally, I feel like the pencil is the one tool that should feel the most natural, as it best encapsulates the experience of sketching in a Moleskine notebook. Hopefully this is something the team can improve!

The current ruler is fine when drawing, but when it comes to taking note, using the rule is SO INCONVENIENT!! The "Draw and hold to create straight line and other shapes" is definitely needed!!! P.S. The "draw and hold to create perfect shape" feature in Goodnotes and Notability is perfect, but the writing experience in Flow is just irreplaceable, I don't want to switch back to other apps!!! Please add this feature soon😢😢😭😭

One of the things I love about Flow is its simplicity, so I don't mean to advocate for adding a ton of new brushes. That said, I think it’s fairly common for sketchbook users to carry around a tiny water color palette and brush and so would like to suggest this as a particular kind of brush which might be reasonable to have in this kind of app. (I noticed in the help documents a water brush was mentioned, not sure if this was an accident or a peek of things to come.)

Allow us to set specific pens to always use specific layers, so we don’t have to switch layers manually all the time. Like for my use case, I use some pens as backgrounds, it would be awesome that they’re attached to background layered while others pens stay attached to the foreground.
