This is a very important version. In this version we have implemented a more modern display of Org mode than in Emacs. Tables and blocks can be layout and rendered independently. In this version, you can easily browse and edit tables and code blocks on your mobile phone without being limited by the screen size of your mobile phone. And this is just the beginning.

1. Supports Org mode’s Visibility Cycling
2. Currently you can switch the collapsed and expanded state of Subtree through TAB key
3. Supports the independent layout of tables and code blocks. You can see the same table effect as in Emacs on your mobile phone without being limited by the screen size. Of course, you can still edit them smoothly.
4. Supports independent layout and rendering of other blocks, you can even nest other blocks within the block
5. Fix other issues.

We continuously explore ways to optimize Metanote through practical use, and this latest upgrade might be the best experience yet. Our developers have started using Metanote heavily in their daily development work to record and manage progress. With thousands of org documents seamlessly integrated with Emacs and real-time synchronization, Metanote has become as essential to us as Emacs. We have shared on our official website how to synchronize with Emacs in real-time and some practical use cases of how we use Metanote daily for your reference.

This update includes:

1. Overall optimization of interaction and interface.
2. Support for directly opening external files.
3. Support for scratch buffer.
4. Editor support for adjusting font size.
5. Editor support for auto-hiding and displaying the navigation bar and toolbar.
6. Performance optimization for full-text search.
7. Newest added headlines in the agenda view and todo list will be listed at the top.
8. Opening content in the agenda and task list will automatically narrow to specific subtree.
9. Narrow buffer now supports widen.
10. Optimization of buffer list management.

Major update: Sync support is now available.

Metanote supports various sync methods to seamlessly connect your documents between your computer and iPhone. You can configure sync in the settings, including local directories, Git, iCloud, Dropbox, OneDrive, WebDAV (Apache WebDAV Server, ownCloud, Yandex.disk, etc.). Local directories, Git, and iCloud are implemented by adding external folders, while other methods have built-in sync. Sync is fully automatic, and you hardly need to trigger it actively. In most cases, when you need it, your latest files are already there. You can use Metanote as a data center, syncing with different directories and different cloud services, or syncing with multiple cloud services on the same directory. Feel free to explore more ways to use it.

1. Fixed issues after upgrading to iOS 17.4.1.
2. Fixed issues on iOS 14.x.
3. Fixed other user-reported issues.

CLOSED: <2024-03-26 Tue>

1. Automatic updates for agenda views and to-do list are now supported. Whether you edit files in Metanote or use other app to edit files in external folders, or retrieve updates from iCloud or Git, Metanote can now automatically detect changes to files and update them accordingly. Your content will always stay up to date.
2. Agenda Filter support is now available, allowing you to filter schedules and to-do items directly by category, todo keyword, and tag.
3. Buffer outlines now support clicking to jump to a specific headline.
4. Customization of Todo Keyword icons and colors is now possible.
5. More intuitive and convenient multi-buffer management is now provided. You can now directly switch buffers from the Buffer list.
6. Various other optimizations have been made, resulting in increased stability.

Regarding file synchronization, Metanote can add any external directory that supports folder-level File Provider and automatically detect file updates. Unfortunately, many cloud drives only support file-level File Provider. We have implemented the ability to add individual files to Metanote, which is still in testing and is expected to be launched in next version. Therefore, the best regular file synchronization solutions for now are:

1. iCloud, which supports folder-level File Provider and can be directly added to Metanote.
2. Git, where most Git app's directories can be directly added to Metanote. For example, with PolyGit, when you git pull, Metanote will automatically update the file content.
3. Other apps that support synchronization. Most document editing apps can be directly added to Metanote, such as Obsidian and Logseq. When files in these apps are updated, Metanote will automatically handle the edited files.

Finally, the development and testing of the custom Capture feature are complete! This process not only presented some technical challenges but also involved a substantial amount of work. There are many usage scenarios to support, and the testing alone took nearly two weeks.

With this, Metanote's support for the core features of Org mode is more comprehensive, including basic document structure, custom task management, custom InBufferSettings like tags, Agenda views, custom Capture, and more. I believe Metanote is now one of the most complete applications supporting Org mode outside of Emacs. In future development, we will gradually introduce support for rich text rendering, including images, tables, hyperlinks, encryption, export functions, Roam Research, and more. Stay tuned.

At the same time, we've initiated the public beta version. You can install both the official and beta versions at same time, join the public test, and provide feedback. https://testflight.apple.com/join/pAYGdOQe , Please note that the beta version may have some bugs and is intended for testing purposes only.

Updates in this release:

1. Added support for custom Capture feature. For detailed settings and usage, please refer to the official website: https://metanote-dev.github.io/
2. Moved all functions that open new buffers, including capture, agenda view, file manager, favorites, etc., to the left menu in the navigation bar.
3. The 'Drafts' feature, now functioning as a Capture template, is no longer independent and has been removed from the file manager.
4. The 'Favorites' feature is now a separate buffer and has been removed from the file manager.
5. Optimized the functions of the MiniBuffer and Narrow Buffer.
