We need a powerful note editor like Typora
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.
It also supports using pandoc to import and export documents, which is very convenient.Export to PDF with bookmarks. Go further and export or import. More formats, including docx, OpenOffice, LaTeX, MediaWiki, Epub, etc, can be exported or imported.
Automatically match common MD editor characters,Auto complete pair of brackets and quotes like a code editor. Also, There's also an option to auto pair markdown symbols,…

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…

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"

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.

- Important - Crucial information necessary for users to succeed.
- Warning - Critical content demanding immediate user attention due to potential risks.

Extend report concept to become dynamic plex filters
The reporting function allows you to choose a combination of types, tags, and search criteria to return a set of matching Thoughts. Suggestion is to extend this concept to filter the set of visible Thoughts and Links in the Plex.
Examples:
Select the ":Location" type and view the plex geographically, showing customer sites and navigating via cities, countries, and regions. Disable the filter to bring all the other context back.
Select either "#Services" or "#Licenses" to view sales opportunities relating to services projects or license sales.
Select ":Person" type and "#ReportsTo" tag to generate an org chart view. Add ":Location"…

New Calendar Function
I would actually like to plot out when I created thoughts. It would be a different perspective on my thought creations. I don't need it to connect to an actual calendar item like Google Calendar, I just want to see a dot on a timeline that shows me what thoughts I created on a specific date.
That way, if I know I was working on a project back in April, I can slide the slider to April, then see a set of dots for each thought I created in April. Have it zoom into the day, hour, minute or as…

The note indicator in the Plex area and the back link in the note area can be hovered for viewing and editing like the Hover Editor plug-in
The note indicator in the Plex area and the back link in the note area can be hovered for viewing and editing like the Hover Editor plug-in in Obsidian. This is simply great. We need more powerful note editing functions.
The recent list below the Plex area allows you to view older ideas by scrolling the mouse wheel, which is very useful for users with small screens.

Separate background customization from thought Types
Currently the only way to customize thought backgrounds, a valid use case on its own, is by assigning a type that has one associated by it. This renders the typing system useless.
So for my (creative) work flow, I want to assign backgrounds and types, but they are not linked. Types are supposed to work cross cutting across the plex, but this breaks if your background-requirements are not exactly the same.
It would make more sense to have background simply a property of thought itself. Or of tags with some sort of priority system, but that would be complicated in…

Button to (temporarily) disable navigation in any Layout
The Mindmap Layout is unique in that clicking and activating a node doesn't navigate to it. For bulk thought updates (like renumbering them for example, or mass note updates), this is super useful!
But why not enable this mode of thought activation in any Layout? There's plenty of space next to the Layout button to switch between 'normal' mode and 'locked navigation' mode.
Or else allow a ctrl-shift click on a thought (or similar) to activate without navigating.
13 votesIn v15, both mind map and the outline layout now work this way. At present we are not planning to enable this for the normal layout.

Enable AI prompts to use content from TheBrain thoughts.
This would be a GAME CHANGER for me. I understand TheBrain uses an External AI tool to generate its responses and that it does not use the content of the brain as a custom large language model (though that should be a long term aim!). However, it should surely be easy to create a custom prompt that retrieves information from the Brain that can form part of the prompt that is sent externally.
For example, with AI tools I am currently creating prompts like, "Summarise the following", "Show any common threads in" etc and then I copy paste the content…7 votes
