Advanced search - find thoughts that mention a specific phrase in note
I want to find thoughts that mention a specific word or phrase.
All search tools use a special operator for this: quotation marks, but not TheBrain Desktop and Vulcan. Actually, put quotation marks around any word or phrase, such as ["advanced search"], will show all throught that contain any words in phrase.
12 votesPutting a search query in quote finds exact matches of the phrase and shows them first. Additional matches that contain all the words in the phrase are also shown. Given that, is the goal of request to eliminate these "extra" results?

Creation and editing of graphical notes, such as handwritten text or sketches using a stylus
Please enhance the notes editor to allow the creation and editing of graphical notes, such as handwritten text or sketches using a stylus.
It would be fantastic to implement functionality similar to tools like Nebo or OneNote, which enable seamless integration of handwritten notes and drawings. This would significantly enhance the usability and versatility of TheBrain, especially for users who prefer working visually or using a pen (e.g., Wacom Pencil) on tablets.
Thank you for considering this suggestion!

Add Timeline feature to Web Brain
I have developed an extensive timeline of events tied to thoughts in my webbrain. I have no way to show external users that timeline on the web version of the brain. It would be nice to add for future releases the ability show the timeline view in the Web brain.

Have a Markdown Template to Format Notes and Avoid Typing the Same Phrases
Have, in the note content editing area, a tool that allows us to use Markdown structure templates. Today, we can do this by tinkering a bit and using third-party files or external tools. For example, I use the third-party tool Lepton.
Ideally, this function should be integrated into TheBrain tool to save time and increase efficiency.
For example, I would like to quickly call up the following note structures:
- Footer note template (link to similar topics, update date, and copyright)
- Meeting note template (date, location, subject, participants, summary, and actions...)
- Contact note template
- Book note template…19 votes -

Customise Toolbar
These days, many apps have a feature to customise the toolbar: change sequence of icons or remove and add them. (Originally I was going to ask for a button to breing up the Todo List, but I realise that might only help me - while they real benefit would come if we had an option to just tailor it to our needs)
(Ok, maybe you think there are options that need to be there and maybe you always want them to be in that sequence - then at least give as the option to control a "custom" portion of the…

A Better way to Segment Brains
By allowing Cutting and Pasting and maintaining links to other brains, which otherwise would require a huge manual effort and the risk of potentially loose data or at least have a lot of duplication.
Alternatively a way to sync sections between brains could be an option.

Customization on what is or isn't omitted in child thoughts
For example I use ISO format for dates, so 2025, 4 for april, and 2025, 4, 4, as a child thought would be the 4th of April, but that would look different then the 3rd which would look right as only "3", the fourth would be "4, 4"

Create an integration with IFTTT/Zapier to allow for automated workflows
Custom Actions such as to create a throught, maybe in a particular place or with a particular parent throught (by ID if needed) as I'm sure not all throughts would be available in a drop down.

Allow a way to Explore (and favorite) Public Brains
Like it was possible in the webbrain.com/explore apparently. Other the listed vs. Unlisted feature doesn't make much of a difference. And allow the search of Public Brains in the Desktop Client, as well as the ability to download them for offline use.

Private Hosted Sync Server Support
Allow me as a user to host my own sync service that I can use for air-gapped networks. This would allow me to share my brain with my local devices that cannot directly reach the Internet.

iOS To Do List Sorting/Filtering
The iOS To Do List doesn't presently allow sorting by Name or Date Modified like the Mac/Windows version of the To Do List does. It's not even clear what sorting logic the iOS list is currently using ... it seems to put modified thoughts at the bottom, but there are confusing inconsistencies. At the very least, it seems like the iOS To Do List should be sorted by Date Modified by default (with To Dos from the last modified notes at the top).
Better still would be to allow for a user-controlled sorting choice, either by Name or Date Modified.

I would like to use an AI tool like perplexity or even internal Brain AI to search all thoughts and attachments
Right now the Brain ai tools go to the web to get their results. I would like to use all the information I have in my brains as the data source instead or in conjunction with the WWW. So this search could be from within the brain or via an external ai tool like perplexity

Enable an OFF switch for the AI tool
This is a personal thing for me and maybe other users may feel empathy for me. I do not at this time favour the inclusion of the AI function and would appreciate if a user off switch would be best for strange users such as I. Maybe to make it a usage preference. I wanted to say I often pause using TB since the inclusion of the AI function. Yes I do know I can use it or not, yet the exponential evolution of AI is unsettling to this older mind. Sorry guys, I just have to say what I…

I hope you can refer to the markdown software Typora.
Its mathematical functions are quite powerful, with inline mathematical formulas and formula blocks, support for non-English characters, and center-aligned lines.The rendering process is processed by MathJax.
