Changelog

User-visible changes by version, newest first. Details follow the in-app experience.

1.3.1 — 2026-10-09

Preview colors and type size, plus insert and selection on the mobile toolbar.

Preview

  • Preview uses a teal palette and a paper-white page; dark mode is updated too
  • Preview font size follows the editor body text size

Editing

  • Mobile editor toolbar: insert a horizontal rule, with blank lines before and after
  • Mobile toolbar: Select parent sits next to Select current line

Reliability

  • Other stability improvements

1.3.0 — 2026-09-28

Richer PDF export and clearer Back on narrow screens. In-app site publishing is gone.

Export

  • PDF export supports up to 3 columns, landscape pages, and a base body font size

Preview & Back

  • Preview font size followed the UI text size setting (as of 1.3.1 it follows the editor body size)
  • On narrow screens, system Back leaves search / filters before leaving the page

Publishing

  • In-app preview, export, and deploy of a space as a static site have been removed
  • Single-note sharing through Youlog remains

1.2.3 — 2026-09-13

Mobile indent, and a fix for the update dialog occasionally sticking.

  • Mobile editor toolbar: increase / decrease indent
  • Site preview: system Back went back first, then closed (this entry was removed in 1.3.0 with in-app site publishing)
  • Fixed the update dialog occasionally getting stuck after dismiss
  • Other stability improvements

1.2.2 — 2026-09-13

Faster preview fonts, and a fix for preview crashes on some iOS devices.

  • Faster preview fonts, with less blank screen when opening notes
  • Body text stays visible while fonts load
  • Fixed preview crashes on some iOS devices
  • Other stability improvements

1.2.1 — 2026-08-16

Builds on 1.2.0’s preview and image work with better search and tagging, smoother inserts, and more reliable fonts and Windows behavior.

Find & organize

  • List search accepts explicit AND, alongside OR / NOT and parentheses; CJK and Latin matching is closer to the text you see
  • Tag autocomplete while typing, so you can pick tags you already use

Editing & fonts

  • Insert horizontal rules and footnotes; with the caret on a reference or definition, add a definition or jump between them
  • UI and preview fonts stay more consistent, with steadier fallbacks for missing glyphs

Reliability

  • Windows: more reliable preview assets, window restore, and clean-system installs
  • Also: Mac preview copy shortcuts, dismissing tag suggestions, and Settings layout polish

1.2.0 — 2026-07-23

Focused on preview and images: SVG in notes, better math / code / footnote rendering, and clearer failures when preview breaks.

Images

  • Insert SVG into notes; GIF / SVG preview stays clearer and more faithful (not forced through the ordinary thumbnail pipeline)

Preview

  • Better math rendering and syntax highlighting in preview
  • Cleaner footnote presentation in preview
  • Clear errors when rendering fails; broken internal links no longer take down the whole page

1.1.0 — 2026-07-16

Compared with 1.0.1, this release keeps the writing-first path while adding desktop workflows, system share / import-export, and basic site publishing.

Organize & find

  • Folders are now called Spaces (still one level of scope + nested tags)
  • Note list supports pinning and fuller keyboard navigation
  • Filter fields such as search keep a query history (shortcut recall depends on the app)
  • List full-text search: multiple keywords must all match by default; supports OR, - / NOT exclusion, quoted exact phrases, and parentheses; searches the text you see (case- and common Latin-accent–insensitive)

Editing & desktop

  • Desktop: command palette, recent-notes overlay, list keyboard navigation, configurable shortcuts
  • Font size: UI size and editor body size can be adjusted separately
  • Common inserts such as task lists, tables, and formulas; template placeholders can be filled with Tab
  • Desktop supports image paste / drag-and-drop; PDF export is available from the command palette or shortcuts
  • Windows: window title is Abox Note; position, size, and maximized state restore after quit

Share, import & export

  • On mobile, create notes via system Share (a single-line URL is turned into a titled Markdown link when possible)
  • Some systems support Quick Actions from the home-screen icon
  • Settings support note import / export (including ZIP, with optional space filters)

Site publishing

  • Publish a space as a static site with in-app preview / export / deploy (powered by Everkm Publish)
  • Abox Note only covers the basic path; themes, config, wikilinks, and advanced deployment are documented at Everkm Publish
  • This capability was removed from the app in 1.3.0
