What’s New
Version 3.16.4
This is a quick update to clean up a few bugs after the last major release.
FIXES
- Fixed issues in the Kanban and Notes List with case-sensitive keys (i.e. keys written sometimes with lowercase and other times with uppercase)
- Fixed issues with invalid frontmatter (if you added a line separator at the top of your note and didn't follow it with key: value pairs)
- Fixed possible attachment deletion issue when moving a folder with the same name as a note that has attachments
- Fixed crashes because the frontmatter fields didn't resign the focus properly
- Fixed bug in RTF export where numbered lists had an extra space
- Fixed find bar position (CMD+F to search the note for text)
- Fixed issues with case-sensitive note titles in the properties.
- Fixed plugin download issues (the download was triggered twice by the plugin)
And other minor fixes, see the full list on our noteplan.co/changelog page.
LAST MAJOR RELEASE
This update is all about Note Properties (aka Frontmatter).
In the last two updates we have added new ways to display your notes (as list or Kanban style cards) which heavily rely on editing the frontmatter (note properties). For example to define groups for your notes so you can build a nice Kanban board.
So it was just time to make editing the note properties easier. As a bonus we have added a few default properties, like a note icon, and the note background color.
Note properties will be a central part for building more "database"-like features in the next few months.
NEW FEATURES:
1. Note Properties (Frontmatter) Editor
• Show/Hide the Frontmatter at the top of your notes
• Add, edit, delete properties through a user interface instead of the raw text
• Copy, paste and add properties from other notes (using the menu top right )
• Choose existing properties from a drop down (it picks up suggestions by scanning other notes)
• Select a note icon, the icon color, and icon style from a drop down
• Select note background color from a color palette
2. Note Icons
• Support added for note icons in the sidebar and notes list
• You can select the icon from a list in the frontmatter editor
3. Title bar with full path
• Find the full path + title of your note at the top in the navigation bar. We made it horizontally scrollable, so things won't be truncated and always readable.
IMPROVEMENTS AND BUG FIXES
1. API and Templates
• Extended NotePlan.ai function in templates (and plugin code) to support folders and a range of calendar notes ('last 7 days', or '... weeks', '... months' etc.) and a model parameter. See help docs for more ("AI Prompts in Templates")
• Fixed saving html into clipboard (using Clipboard.setStringForType(your html data, "public.html")
2. Images and File Attachments
• Fixed images shifting down when indenting on macOS
• Fixed issue where attachments were not synced due to broken attachment markdown
• Fixed attachments being deleted when editing notes through filters or search
• Fixed image sync deadlock if you have added images on two devices
3. Other Fixes
• Fix clicking on new note links created the note in root if the folder contained ampersand
• Hex colors codes are now validated in the frontmatter
• Fixed the sidebar sorting so numbers in folder names and notes are sorted correctly
• Fixed issues when scheduling folded tasks or tasks with synced lines.
4. Other Improvements
• Ignore tags that are surrounded by double quotes like "#tag", especially useful for hex codes in frontmatter
• Sync notes list settings again between devices
• Remove archived notes and templates from the notes list when opening the "Notes" header in the sidebar to see all notes
• Added search settings to the regular search to be able exclude events and reminders, to filter out recurring events that spam the results.

Ratings and Reviews
The best
I’ve looked into a lot of notetaking and task management apps over the last 10 or 15 years. Noteplan is the one app that rules them all. It really is just absolutely brilliant. Especially with the addition of the incredible automations and features that are provided by many great plug-ins that other developers have kindly written and made public.
I use Noteplan for all my task management now, which integrates nicely with my calendar and Apple reminders. I also use it for storing the bulk of my Notes and research Info. Although for larger amounts of data, what I would call the heavy lifting of my “second brain”, I do also use Obsidian. Thankfully, Obsidian and Noteplan can integrate quite nicely with Obsidian so that the two are able to work on the same data repository.
I could rave on and on about this app, but really just try it out. But, do take the time to go through the many excellent tutorial videos, because there really is so much power in this app especially in the many shortcuts and automations that it has. Without really learning about the features, it may seem a little underwhelming. Once you get familiar with what it’s capable of I can promise you it’s probably gonna seem a little overwhelming. However, it’s then just a matter of getting familiar with what you need to use.

Noteplan 3 is unstoppable!
Hi there,
I recently downloaded this app and fell in love with it at first sight(or use). I have used all other productivity apps out there across both iOS and Mac, but nothing comes close to the features Noteplan provides. The ability to access and modify my notes, tasks and calendar, all in one place, cross-platform is beyond amazing! That is the foremost thing that sets Noteplan apart, in fact, a class apart from all other apps out there. They all seem to be missing one or the other feature and the closest anything has come to meeting that benchmark, is this app. I saw that people were raving about it on Twitter as well and I couldn't help but get this. I am on a free trial right now and I am set to get the paid version of the app in Sep -The fact that I am leaving a review at this stage is only indicative of the HUGE potential and brilliance of this app. I observed also, like one of the other reviewers here, that the development team is quite responsive and I really appreciate the fact. As a fan of this app, you can expect your team hearing from me with inputs and feedback along the way - I want to see this app get better and the best! There is so much potential here and I am in love with this! Thank you for your and the work of your team to make this possible! 🙏🏻😀

When To-Do is not enough
This app is great for busy individuals who work on extremely complicated projects. If you’re a person who thinks that 24hours is not enough to get things done this app is for you. Personally I do many different, complicated things. From having a homestead and selling at farmers markets to managing a manufacturing shop and working in insurance I am in dozens of meetings every week and there’s a crazy amount of information shared with me. To remember it all is impossible. This app allows me to write it down in easy to remember tasks and link it to notes where I can see the bigger picture for all the things I need to do. The app being able to link to the calendar is incredible as well! Before the meeting I can simply press the button and it brings me back to a note where all the main ideas for the specific meeting are. Since I started using this app there has not been a day where I felt underprepared for anything since it takes 5 minutes of reading my notes to get back to speed on any of the many things that I have to work on. If you’re extremely busy, juggling multiple projects all at the same time and on some days your only free time is traveling from one meeting to the next, I can’t recommend this app enough.
