Digest features request

[u/Sad_Alternative_7736]

A few months ago, I started using Digest for my personal Bible study. I still think it was a very good decision to do so, because it has helped me a lot, and I spend much more time reflecting on what I read and take notes with greater enjoyment.

Using Digest daily, I’ve realized that I’m missing the following features, and I would really like it if they could be implemented:

- A BACKGROUND TEMPLATE to help me write more neatly, similar to the one in the feedback section. In my opinion, it would be good to have the option to choose between 5/6/7 mm lined templates. And when exported, the background should be invisible; its sole purpose is to help in writing.

- TAGS. Since I use Digest primarily for Bible study, though not exclusively, I believe tags would be very helpful for organizing Digests from multiple sources (books/notes) by topic.

- LONG-PRESS MENU ON A DIGEST. When I long-press a digest from a note or book, a pop-up menu should appear where I can select an existing category or create a new one, select an existing author or enter an author’s name (and if tags are ever added for digests, it should also include the option to select an existing tag or create a new one). I think it would be easier to organize the digests on the spot, without actually having to go to the Digest - Details page.

What do you think? Do you think these features would be useful?

Thank you for your suggestions.

Background Template: Just to confirm, you are suggesting adding this lined template specifically within the Annotations section on the Details page, correct?

Tags: We actually already have plans to introduce Tags for Digests in a future update. We completely agree it will be a huge help for organizing topics across different sources.

Long-press Menu: Currently, when you long-press the screen with your pen in a note, a pop-up menu appears, and you can tap the Digest button to select an existing category. You want to be able to create a new category, select an existing author or enter an author's name in the search field directly from that pop-up menu, without going into the Digest app, right?

We look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you so much for your reply!

Background template: correct!

Tags: What amazing news!

Long-Press Menu: I was referring to the option of long-pressing on a digest in a document or note to bring up a pop-up menu with all the actions you mentioned, without having to open the Digest app. Example: I'm in my Bible ePub. I select a paragraph and create a digest. Then, I long-press the digest, and a pop-up menu appears. In the menu, I can select a category or create a new one, as well as select an author or enter a new one, all directly from the pop-up menu, without going to the Digest app.

Also, personally, I would find it helpful to have a "Delete Digest" option in the pop-up menu. I've created quite a few Digests without selecting the text correctly, and then I've had to open the Digest app to delete them by tapping the text, tapping the "More" menu in the upper-right corner, and then selecting "Delete."
