    You can add a shortcut to your Home Screen to open a specific notebook (see http://feedback.squidnotes.com/knowledgebase/articles/1179331) or to create a new note in a specific notebook (see http://feedback.squidnotes.com/knowledgebase/articles/1179328).

    It does not appear to be possible to create a widget that allows for taking handwritten notes directly on the Home Screen (due to the fact that you need to be able to swipe left/right to get to different pages on your Home Screen). Please vote here if you’re interested in a widget that shows a particular note on your Home Screen (and allows you to open it quickly to edit it).

  4. Marquee with finger, then quick copy/paste/duplicate

    Here's an idea for your product team that enables quick access to copy/paste/duplicate functions after selecting with the finger (without a side button). It's taken from the "Concepts" app on iOS and here's a video (starting at 0:21) showing how it works: https://youtu.be/sx4AfhXBDdA?t=21s

  6. SESSIONS

    Sceeen casting sessions. One note live notetaker but every student can see it. Hence teacher takes notes and every student can view it live in a private session. With pdf imports, this can also allow live notes within textbooks.

  8. Customize position of header bar (with page navigation buttons)

    I'd love to be able to chose where the menu (with the file name, page navigation buttons, pen too/ink selector) bar goes. For me I'll want it along the right edge of the screen instead of the top like now.

  9. add a shortcut to add a page after the current one even if you're not on the last page

    Right now if you want to add a page after the active one, you have to go to the next page because you can only add a page before the active one, and then go into menus inside menus. It's long and unnatural.

  10. Control and fix display brightness

    I use a samsung galaxy tablet, and I'm left handed. This mean's writing in landscape mode means either my hand sits on the home button (WAY too annoying) or it sits over the brightness sensor.

    When my hand covers the sensor, the brightness of the page changes, which is really annoying. THat menas I have to go into my own settings and lock the auto brightness.

    It'd be nice to be able to have the app fix the brightness while in use so lefties don't have to toggle this in the settings.

  13. Make prices more clear- read me! not a mean suggestion:)

    I love this app! It's brand new to me as of today but it is fantastic! Brilliant idea. It is scienticaly proven writing things down helps you remember folks!
    Anyway, it could be that I am new but I cannot find your pricing anywhere & had to Google it. I suggest making it more clear for customers.
    I really think on your end you'll make more money on people opting for premium.
    (NOTE these are NOT actual prices here, I am guessing.) But I know if I see that the PDF tool costs $5 but a year of premium is…

  16. Make intents public for tasker integration

    Specifically trying to may the right keyboard key to the next page button, but if all intents were made public and documents, it basically works as an API for tasker and other applications

  17. better default zoom control, orientation default and notebook default

    If a pdf if portrait, fixed height is best when my chromebook is in portrait mode and fixed width is best in landscape mode to zoom in.
    If a pdf is landscape (like slides) fixed height is best in landscape mode.

    Default zoom either based on device orientation or notebook orientation would be very useful.

    An alternative solution is a notebook-level default zoom level, so I don't have to manually set the zoom for every page

  18. Make folder navigation directly from device storage

    Instead of having only squid files or imported pdfs available in the file menu, base the apps documents out of the local device storage. Transitioning to squid is difficult if you used a different note taking app before it. Xodo is a good example

  19. Provide a function for the Pixelbook pen button

    This probably isn't even possible, but it would be really nice if the Pixelbook pen side button had Squid functionality.

    We 100% agree! Unfortunately Google has decided to not allow third party apps to access the Pixelbook Pen side button (it can only be used by the Google Assistant).

    Please contact Google and tell them you want to be able to use the Pixelbook Pen side button in Squid (or any third party apps)!

  20. Ability to shift page number

    When I import textbook pdf files, the page number of imported pdf is slightly shifted. So when professor says the page of textbook, I have to calculate the number. This may look like minor problem and it can be fixed simply by deleting some useless pages. However, I think this kind of convenience-focused app must care about these trivial issues. I will be very happy if you add this simple ability.
