Scheduled Local Backups
Cloud backups have the ability to schedule and run automatically, but local backups do not. This would be a great additional feature to have.

Search through handwritten notes
Handwritten notes will get converted to digital text in the background so they become searchable. This would happen just like Google Keep so that a note will become search almost immediately after you save it.

Add the possibility to select the page to show at the app startup (recent, starred or a specific category) and to change the view of the notes (image or list, for example)

Cast to a Hangout.
At the moment you can only cast to a chromecast device, but chrome browser allows you to cast directly to hangout meeting... would be great if squid also supported this method of casting.

For PDF markup. This helps the markup to stand out more from original document. Also, curved lines, arrows and callouts.

Allow editing of files in place, without making copies
I want to open a PDF in Google Drive, annotate it, and then save that file back to Google Drive without creating a new file, and having one file annotated with notes and the other plain. iAnnotate on the iPad does this and it was an integral part of my workflow as a teacher, and I'm really missing this on a Chromebook.

Choose note when importing image
Right now when you "share" an image with Squid, it automatically makes a new note. It would be really useful if you could first choose the note where you want your image.

Interoperability with other pdf markup software
I go back and forth between mobile devices and Windows desktop (so I use Squid and Bluebeam Revu markup software). It would be really nice if the pdf's created from each would recognize the elements created in each. Not asking for Squid to have the same tool set as Bluebeam - just would like to be able to have the entities created in each selectable for basic functionality (move/ delete/ change color/ etc.). Also would be nice to have the bookmarks, flags, hyperlinks, etc. in a pdf available in Squid.

Support for Google Drive and Classroom without the Android Apps!
Support to use Google Drive or Google Classroom without installing the Android Apps would be so helpful! Students and staff get very lost on how to import or export to and from Squid since Squid requires the Android apps to be installed. Couldn't you force users to sign into their Google account to allow access to Drive and Classroom without the apps?
12 votesGoogle Classroom
We've had discussions with Google, but, unfortunately, the APIs we need to integrate with Classroom do not currently exist. If this changes in the future, we would definitely like to integrate Classroom more closely inside Squid.
Google Drive
We recently added support for automatic backup to Google Drive. However, this only gives access to Drive files created by Squid. We will continue investigating whether we can provide a safe way for the user to select a file from Drive from within Squid, without having to use the Android app. We continue to hope that Google will update ChromeOS to allow the user to access their Google Drive from the file picker without having the Google Drive Android app installed.

Lock screen unless two finger pan is used
Add ability to lock the screen against inadvertent touches unless you use the two finger pan....the screen is constantly jumping in the current version when in pen mode due to Palm interactions...previous versions had this very useful option which is now gone :(

Open source?
If Squid were open source the mighty developer army could do MANY of the trivial things listed in this feedback forum and you would have TOTAL control on don't pull requests get accepted and which don't. I would love to help make one of my most useful apps even better.

Support for Bluetooth page turning devices
Please add support for Bluetooth page turning devices, such as PageFlip Firefly, for hands-free page turning. My particular use case is music performance (PDF sheet music).

Full size page as thumbnail
Would it be possible to add a feature that shows the whole first page in the thumbnail? Right now the thumbnail is zoomed to the scale with which I closed the note.

Bckup redunancy
It would be great if there were an option to keep the last X number of backups so there is some redunancy in your cloud backups. For example, I could back up daily and keep the last 7 backups so I have 1 weeks worth of backups to restore from if an error is made.
