Lognote in November: Time to make it run better
November is already a week old, but I still wanted to share a quick update on my plans for Lognote this month. A lot of new features have arrived over the past few months. Now I want to spend some time making what is already there work better.
The latest update is already out
I submitted Lognote 6.5 to Apple on November 5. It is now available on the App Store, with improvements to group sharing and synchronization, among other fixes.
You can now see the active invitation links for your shared groups, share them again or revoke individual links. Photos and PDFs download more reliably after changes. Interrupted transfers are retried, and the sync status does a better job of showing when files are still missing.
Leaving a shared group has also been improved: local copies are kept, and changes that have not synced yet are checked first. You can find the full rundown in the Lognote 6.5 post.
For the rest of the month: fewer additions, more fixes
I am not planning any more major features for the rest of November. I want to make the app faster, fix bugs and tidy up parts that have become more complicated as the app has grown.
Right now, I am mainly working on live sync. I want changes to arrive sooner, especially when several people use a shared group. I also want to reduce the work happening in the background. This is still in progress, not something I am calling finished in the current update.
What matters to me is that Lognote works reliably day to day. A screen that takes too long to load, or something that only fails occasionally, deserves attention just as much as an obvious bug.
Android and web are planned to launch together
I am still planning to release the Android and web versions in November. I am currently aiming for the middle to the end of the month. Both should launch together; I do not have an exact date yet.
Since switching the app to Flutter at the beginning of the year, I have put more than six months of work into it. I am looking forward to bringing Lognote to people who do not use an iPhone, or who want to open their notes in a browser.
Until then, my focus is on testing and improving the app. If something in Lognote is slowing you down, or you keep running into a bug, please let me know through support. That feedback helps me decide where to start.
