What’s New

Version 3.14

This NotePlan update is all about auto templates, making it easier to organize your periodic notes! With auto templates, you can set a standard set of tasks, notes, and checklists for specific note types. Once configured, these templates are automatically loaded when you open the corresponding note—no need for extra clicks or taps!

Customize it further: insert a different task list for weekdays and weekends, for example. Let’s break it down:

AUTO TEMPLATES

There are two ways to set up auto templates.

1. Open an existing template or create a new one under "Templates" in "Smart Folders."
2. In the template, click on the calendar icon in the top right to set your auto-insert options (note: the icon only turns blue if an active rule is in place).
3. You can configure templates to be inserted based on specific frequencies, such as daily, or on certain days of the year—like January 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.

Alternatively, you can also set up auto templates directly while working in calendar notes.


SETUP AUTO TEMPLATES FROM CALENDAR NOTES

First, ensure “Show help text (and template button)” is on in Settings → Markdown.

1. Open an empty calendar note (daily, weekly, monthly, etc.).
2. Click on “Insert Template”, then hover over "Auto-Insert" and choose a template.

To remove the template click again on it in the menu (it toggles it on/off). Or go into the template and open the recurrence settings by tapping on the calendar button top right.


OTHER IMPROVEMENTS

- Paste plain text with Cmd+Shift+V
- “Move” renamed to “Schedule”
- Fixed repeat crash (minimum now set to 2)
- Improved formatting when pasting
- New filter option: 'past including today'
- Fixed link alias issues
- Improved cursor positioning after auto-inserted brackets, you can hit enter to jump behind the closing bracket.
- Added shortcuts for opening notes in new window or split view
- Fixed link-tapping crash on iPad
- Resolved layout issues with empty event titles
- Fixed importing of weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly notes from Obsidian
- Improved importing of file attachments from Obsidian
- Changed 'Preferences' to 'Settings'
- Fixed dragged in events created timeblocks and renamed the event in the note
- Fixed dragged in tasks with sub-tasks for creating synced lines from the references didn't make the subtasks synced lines

Great all in one productivity system

I started using the app recently and it really helps me get all the information from meetings and other work during the day in one place. The automisation and smart features are very useful and I'm finally able following up on my tasks. The app can also be used to implement the GTD (Getting Things Done) workflow which works great for me!

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your review and your kind words! :)

Indeed GTD is one of the main use cases, besides Bullet Journaling and PARA!

Best,
Eduard

Looks promising but UI is not OK

The top of the app menu overlaps with the iPad pro top icons ( wifi, battery, … ) Bad design for expensive app

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your review and for taking the time to write one. 

This sounds like a bug, please try to restart NotePlan once. If it's still there, can you share your exact iPad model and iOS version? We will check and fix it then.

If you have any trouble using the app, or if you have any other questions or suggestions, please don't hesitate to let me know directly: hello@noteplan.co.
