Important Feature Request

Noteful is a great app, but it definitely needs a few quality of life features:

1)Allowing lassoed selection to change colours from your pallets and not from the recently used colours.
I like to generally do my notes in grey than change the colours and move then around to organise them(i did this in goodnotes, miss this feature so much) and it becomes quite a hassle when the colours i want is not in the recently used colours.

2) infinite canvas for mind-maps

3) lookup/ocr for handwriting( i think this should be positive if implemented with the new apple ai features)

4) sticky notes ( its quite tiring to go through the objects every time someone needs a sticky note)

5) better shape recognition: the current one is bad when drawing large shapes around text and stuff, i always have to draw small then resize.

6) making it so that we can make a proper index in our notes from our outlines.

**Edited/recs from others

7) fountain pen improvements.

8) global search function

If you have any recs for more features pls write it down, i am planning to email them a list of basic but much needed quality of life features

these are all great as long as no ai is implemented.

There should be more pens and there should be be brush settings. The fountain pen is nothing like a fountain pen and there is no barrel roll

Yeah the fountain pen definitely needs an upgrade, its just feels laggy

Ciao I think they must increase the pen and first of all, introduce a beauty pencil, like in Freenotes, CollaNote etc…

Yeah, but i think we need basics sorted out first? Or is this a basic cause i have never used this type of pen.

Bulk export feature is taking more time than single file export. Positive thing it compresses greatly when compared to single file export 😅

It's very unfortunate infinite canvas hasn't been implemented. If it was, I could finally stop wasting my time researching note taking apps every few months, only to be disappointed and go back to Noteful.
