Hey everyone,

For the past six months, I’ve been working on a custom note-taking app for my Surface as a side project, and I wanted to finally share it with you guys here.

If you use a Windows tablet for handwritten notes, you’re basically stuck with OneNote, while all the really good apps are iPad exclusives. Buying a whole separate tablet just to take notes seemed ridiculous to me. So, out of pure frustration, I decided to build my own app featuring all the things I always felt were missing: proper formula support, the ability to write directly on PDF lecture slides/scripts, and solid handwriting recognition.

It runs completely locally, saves directly to OneDrive, and is strictly a hobby project. Just a quick heads-up: it is still in heavy development, so I'm not quite ready to go live or share a download link just yet. I want to polish it a bit more first!

Here are the features I’m currently focusing on and implementing next:

• Whiteboard: Complete with the right writing tools, shape recognition, etc.
• Tables: Easy insertion of columns, rows, and formatting.
• Hyperlinks: The ability to link to other pages within the notebook, other notebooks, or external websites.
• Tape (Active Recall): A masking tape tool to hide specific parts of the text for memorization/studying.
• Built-in Timer: For those who study using the Pomodoro technique.
• Flashcard Mode: Native flashcard integration.
• Presentation Mode: Automatically switches to fullscreen and disables everything except touch and a laser pointer tool.

Are there any other absolute "must-have" features you guys would want to see in a note-taking app? I'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions!

Hi guys,

​

Just out of curiosity... is there an keyboard case with german or swiss layout which works like this?

Dear devs, I've been loving the multitasking on my huge 14.6 inch tab s11 ultra, but I've run into a limitation. I'd love to be able to open three separate notes side-by-side. It would be amazing to either have them all equal width, or have one page take up half the screen while the other two split the remainder. Attached you will find a few AI generated pictures on how this could look like.

How likely is it that we will get more flexible multi "window" management?

​

Thank you in advance for your answer!:)

Could you do us an huge favor and improve the typing capabilities? Samsung Notes is a great example:

- checkboxes

- font color

- background color (textbox itself)

- different formatting styles (heading 1, heading 2 etc.)

And much more :)
