iOS Widgets with Thought Note Content or List of Thoughts
I'd love to see an iOS widget for TheBrain that displays the note content of a selected thought and another option to list the last x number of created, modified, or accessed thoughts. I'm only asking to show the data. Tapping on the note would bring you to the thought note in TheBrain, and tapping the thought name in the list option would open that thought.
Apple Notes widgets are excellent examples of a thought note content widgets. I've attached an example of the Thought Note Content.
Widgets enable background sync for the app on iOS, which could be an…

Actionable Grid View (as alternative Plex view)
As an alternate to the Plex (I don't see using both at same time) have a filterable list (think simple spreadsheet or grid) where you can filter and sort columns. Columns would be adjustable but at minimum Thought Name, Type, Tags, Create Date, Update Date, Attachment Exists. You would select on the grid and the note would be visible. The idea is you could mass update Tags and Types, or you could rapidly move through a list of notes.

Better mouse hiding (temporary) when using the keyboard.
I'm a primarily keyboard user. My mouse usage is very sparingly. (Keyboard navigation is much faster)
One of my biggest complaints when using the option "update displayed content on mouse hover or keyboard highlight", is that the mouse location takes precedence.
The issue is the thoughts content preview doesn't work as expected when navigating with the keyboard. If the mouse happens to already be in the area where another thought comes into during the reposition process after activating a thought, then that thought content is shown. Because the content preview is not the new positioned center thought, but the thought…

Enable opening thought links on iOS via other apps
Please enable opening thought links in TheBrain app on iOS (and Android).
I use e.g. OmniFocus and DevonThink next to TheBrain. On MacOS I can post links to relevant thoughts into those tools and easily access the thoughts as needed.
However, instead of opening in TheBrain, on iOS these links do nothing. This limits cross-app workflows significantly on mobile

Dynamic link to MSOffice
It would be very valuable to have a dynamic link capability between Thoughts and elements in MSOffice, especially Outlook. I am not talking about file links, but more like a direct interface so that a person in a Thought can be dynamically linked to their Contact in Office.

Allow item text size to be based proportionally on the number of children and/or jumps and/or parents. This might be handy in any view,
This would convey the importance or influence of an item. Optionally this could be done based on the number of clicks an item has. I think the basic concept has been termed "tag cloud" or "word cloud".

eml (Email) file support
Treat eml files like PDFs. Just show the to, subject, sent date, and body fields as if it were a PDF like document. I know that there have been a number of discussions on this subject, and the hangup seems to come down to issues with an email client. The common denominator is the eml file format. Allow us to attach it to a thought and view it's contents without launching an external app. Let us worry about how we get the eml file in the first place.

Display backlinks and mentions in Web Client
I have used The Brain for years, but like many people I can't install programs on my work computer and must rely on the Web Client that syncs with the local installation on my personal computer. Backlinks and mentions are critical features for me, but they are not displayed on the Web Client. I would expect there are many in my situation who really want these features on the Web Client as well. Thanks for considering this.

After clicking on the local path, the brain appears in the front-end application window, not in the background.

AI Assistant
Currently AI in the brain can be used to generate thoughts and content within thoughts.
I believe that the next logical step is to get some AI analysis of content and thoughts into The Brain.
I would love to have the ability to click a thought point, and drag as though I were creating or linking a thought. Then when I let go, normally it gives you a "create thought" bubble which lets you either search or name that thought. This could be above, left, or below.
But instead of requiring you to start searching, make the AI do the…

add a "read-only" mode to the settings for on-line access.
I want to be able to navigate my Brain in no-plex mode without instantly triggering the edit mode everytime I touch the screen. My only option is to log out of TB, which then means I can't see private thoughts etc.

Make note links color editable based on thought types etc.
I have thought types for people, organizations, etc. It would be nice if, when I put links to those thoughts into notes, if I were able to adjust their link color based on their thought type.
For example, if I set up People thoughts to be highlighted as green text color in Plex, I also want links to those thoughts in notes to be shown in green instead of the standard link color set up in the notes theme.
In Obsidian, this is possible with a plugin called Supercharged Links ( https://github.com/mdelobelle/obsidian_supercharged_links ).

Match web client note formatting with the desktop
Our previous web client faithfully replicated ALL of the note styling and formatting from the desktop.
This duplication was lost with the launch of Vulcan, and I would very much like to see it restored.
This duplication would include:
* All note background colors (including replacing the default grey background)
* All note fonts
* Much, MUCH lighter weight horizontal rules that do not dominate the page3 votes -
Display current page # of attached PDF displayed and page count. Perhaps in the vertical slider or next to printer icon.
Adding footnotes to exported reports/pdf. I understand that MATH functions of laytext work in the notes editor. Could latex functions like \footnote[N]{foot note text} and or \textit{italic text goes here} be added to the report export function. Love the note editor however it does not quite yet replace a word processor. Work around is to write in editors then cut and paste to laytxt.

Keep outlined notes contracted as in Logseq
Note editor should be improved. I’m using Logseq as an outliner instead of the Brain because in TB you can’t contract and expanded outlined Note. The contracted outline will be expanded by default when you open the note again.

Work on the IPAD APP!
It is not consistent at all. I cannot type into child thoughts, sometimes when I launch the app the brain does not show up, it’s just a white screen. Why is that? TheBrain basically does not work on IOS. Brains are viewable on IOS but it’s very difficult to “work” on IOS. Would love for you to get back to me with these issues.

New Feature
Provide support for X Cards. https://developer.x.com/en/docs/x-for-websites/cards/overview/player-card
This would allow users to embed Brains or elements of brains perhaps, into posts on X.
With X Communities beginning to take off, this would make use of TheBrain as a value add to communities.
This would help on other communities too, like Skool.
