Anecnote v1.4.0
Anecnote v1.4.0 is a big step towards making your notes available wherever you need them.
This release expands Anecnote beyond the main app with a new Share Sheet extension, configurable widgets, and an Apple Watch companion app. The aim is simple: make it easier to capture notes from other apps, review important notes at a glance, and keep useful note views close to hand.
Apple Watch app
- Browse notes from Standard Views and Smart Views directly on Apple Watch.
- Use filtered views such as Starred and Action Required when you want to focus on the notes that need attention.
- Open notes on Apple Watch to read their full content and note details.
- Anecnote syncs lightweight note snapshots from the paired iPhone, keeping the Watch experience quick and focused.
- Recently synced notes remain cached when the phone is unreachable, so useful notes can still be available when you are away from your iPhone.
Share Sheet extension
- Save text and web pages directly to Anecnote from other apps.
- Web pages can auto-fill the source URL and page title.
- Article content can be captured as plain text or Markdown when available.
- Shared notes can be edited before saving, including title, content, source, category, area, tags, starred status, and action required.
- Tag entry supports searching, matching existing tags, and creating new tags.
- The Share Sheet respects your custom labels, categories, and areas, so captured notes still fit the way you have configured Anecnote.
Widgets
- New configurable Smart View widgets support saved Smart Views and Standard Views.
- Supported views include All Notes, Starred Items, Todos, Recently Added, and Recently Modified.
- A compact Smart View widget variant shows more notes at a glance.
- A new Add Note widget opens directly into note creation.
- Widget note rows open the individual note, making widgets useful as quick launch points as well as glanceable summaries.
- Widget headers and “+ more” links open the specific Smart View.
- Widgets show helpful metadata, including starred and action-required indicators.
Fixed
- Fixed an issue where the Add Note button could be hidden or inaccessible on some iPads when the sidebar was too narrow.
