  1. Citavi is widely used as a reference management tool in academic environments. I would prefer a close interface so that TheBrain can also be used for academic work.

  2. Taio is pretty much one of the few apps you can copy from AI like Perplexity and Copilot, if pastes as a markdown with * all over, by changing the view type it’s clean and can be copied into word etc.. love their box for code, clean and neat, lots of different types of code to choose from

  5. Currently when you fold a heading the information under it is hidden (standard behavior).

    However, when you navigate away from the thought and then activate it again, all headings are expanded. It would be nice if the fold status of headings is saved with the note it retains fold status after navigating away.

  6. To elevate TheBrain's capabilities in its next version, we propose an advanced integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) that deeply understands and utilizes the application's unique structures—Plex and Notes. This integration aims to transform TheBrain into a more intuitive and powerful tool for knowledge management and creative workflows.


    1. Context-Aware AI Agents

    a. Deep Integration with Plex and Notes
    • Global Contextual Understanding: Enable AI to access and interpret the entire brain's structure, allowing for more coherent and contextually relevant content generation.
    • Semantic Awareness: Allow AI to recognize and utilize the relationships between thoughts, enhancing the relevance of generated…

  7. I would like to be able to tell sync status just by looking at the Cloud icon. I have attached a visual of one possible solution.

    This would be useful in several situations:

    • My Brain is having a sync problem, but I don't realize it until days later. This is because I have to click on the little triangle to see the sync status, but there is nothing to prompt me to do that if I assume sync is automatically happening like it usually does.

    • I'm stepping away from my desk, and want to make sure my latest…

  8. When items in a Table of Contents wrap to two or more lines, it can be difficult to distinguish between the different items in the list.

    I suggest adding formatting that makes it easier to see where each new item begins. I've attached a few possibilities.

  9. 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…

  10. 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.

  13. It's possible but through a rather convoluted way.

  14. 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"

  15. 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.

  16. 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.

  17. At the moment the biggest unit on the screen when you max zoom out is year. Should be at least century! I understand that most of the people are rarely need more than a year of navigation, but for historical events it would be so nice to have at least an option to have several centuries on screen!

  18. Currently we have the ability to enter a custom prompt, but it's a manual process each time. It would be great to be able save my custom prompts as a template so they can be easily re-used.

  19. I usually use the BB to keep ideas, comments, URLs, images, and so on, from LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Captures made by my phone - always in the phone. Now I have a BB full of material, and I hate to go there, and begin to understand what did I kept that or for what.
    I suggest:
    Rename the link (it does not work properly in my Android-Motorola Edge 40 Pro), and make it work, perhaps beginning with a key such as two or three characters...
    then sort the info in the BB, and all those could be massive taken to…

  20. (1) HIDE the admin features from public (logged out) view. Public readers of a shared brain do not need access to these features, and they only add to the confusion of an already unusual interface.
    * To-Do List
    * Reports

    (2) Move the Home icon to the far left of the toolbar (between the name of the brain and the thought type icon). This is where most users are going to look when they want to navigate back home.

    (3) Move the Pins icon back to its previous location, immediately to the right of the tags icon. From a design…
