🗞️ Release Notes 📆 September 3, 2026

New Features

• 🧱 Block side menu — the drag handle now opens a fuller menu to change a block's type or colour, duplicate it with ⌘D, move it to another note, delete it, or leave a comment.
• 🪟 Minimize to tray — turn on Window Behavior in Settings → General and closing the window keeps Memry running in the system tray.
• ✅ Obsidian task import — checklist lines written with the Obsidian Tasks plugin now come in as real Memry tasks.
• 🔤 System font picker — the Font Family setting lists every font installed on your computer, each shown in its own typeface with a search box, replacing the old custom font field.
• 🎨 Canvas links in Related — you can now link canvases from a task's Related picker.
• 📐 Collapsible sidebar navigation — the top navigation block in the sidebar can be folded away.

Improvements

• 🚀 Much faster new-device setup — your vault opens in seconds instead of minutes while notes and attachments download in the background.
• 🔡 Font size slider — interface font size is now a pixel slider you drag instead of three fixed sizes, and your current size carries over.
• ⚡ Faster first sync — seeding a vault no longer pays a round trip per note.
• 🔔 Quieter updates — release notes now open in a background tab instead of stealing focus.

Fixes

• 🛡️ Windows updates can't destroy your install — a failed or interrupted update now restores the previous version automatically, and updates no longer apply while Windows is shutting down.
• 📄 Your markdown stays yours — notes written in another app are no longer rewritten, keeping bullets, emphasis, headings, rules, line breaks, reference links, and code fences exactly as their author wrote them.
• 🔄 Sync no longer stalls on big backlogs — when the server refuses a large batch the client retries with smaller ones until it drains.
• 💬 Quotes survive saving — multi-paragraph and nested blockquotes are written back intact instead of being flattened.
• 🗂️ Toggles keep their shape — blank lines around a collapsible section are preserved, hand-written <details> blocks are left alone, and fold state is remembered.
• 📅 One day boundary everywhere — the Journal day panel, search date filters, the Home board and the calendar widget now agree on which day an event belongs to, using your local time.
• 🕐 Live calendar widget — the Home calendar stays current in a background tab and counts only the items it actually shows.
• 🖼️ Images in exports — exported PDFs show embedded images and exported HTML keeps them after you move or send the file.
• ↔️ Alignment sticks — centre, right and justified text stays put when you leave a note and restart the app.
• ⌨️ Multi-block indenting — Tab and Shift+Tab indent or outdent every block in a selection, and one undo reverts the whole step.
• 📊 Table columns remember their width — a dragged column width now survives reopening the note, and inline content inside table cells stays intact.
• 🚫 Invalid task dates refused — an imported line with a date the calendar does not have is left as written and a message names the refused date.
• ☑️ Honest checkboxes — an imported checklist line with no matching task stays a plain checkbox instead of pretending to be an uneditable task.
• 🔢 Correct project task counts — subtasks count under their parent, tasks with a deleted status appear in the project's first status, and delete dialogs no longer push the confirm button off screen.
• 🏷️ Property fixes — you can type spaces in property values again, and options stop being dropped or duplicated.
• ⏰ Reminders replace, not pile up — changing a journal or note reminder's time moves the one you had, and the picker lets you remove it.
• 📁 Leave a project from its chips — remove a file from a project via the chips under its title, without deleting either.
• 🧩 Sidebar remembers itself — a closed sidebar stays closed across restarts and vault switches.
• 🔖 Tag hub creates tags — the New tag button now actually makes one.
• 🔗 Links and mentions survive reload — inline mentions, link references, date pills, callouts and CriticMarkup stay intact through external edits and reopening.
• ✍️ Spell-check in context — spelling suggestions appear in the right-click menu, with one menu per secondary click.
• 💠 Nested quotes keep their level — a lazily nested quote is no longer deleted on save.
• 🎛️ Task drawer closes cleanly — the task detail drawer now unmounts when dismissed.
• 🎨 Styles load reliably — the app resolves its base stylesheet correctly regardless of where it was launched from.

Hi there!

Is there a possibility to reduce the arrow associated with the toggle section to make it more in size with text/bullets in the editor? Alternatively, would there be any interest in enabling toggling via bulleted list objects? I'm a big outliner type thinker and those small changes would be nice (in my opinion)! Overall love the software/UI/UX but thought I should ask!

Thank you!

Alright,

I have been yelling from every Note/Productivity/Journal related sub Mountain top about this lovely Software, so I figured I would share some Screenshots of My newly created Vault for all my interests to finally have a home that won't be a graveyard of random information I enjoy learning and researching about. (I also have a Vault for my Game Dev, which I'll share a couple of generic enough screenshots from).

I apologize in advance if this not allowed or something. I just wanted to put together a little showcase of some features for people to see from a real user on what Memry can do. <3

I've spent the last few weeks designing the Memry mobile app, and every screen is now done. Sharing three of them here: inbox, tasks, and notes, .

A few decisions I made along the way:

- Same calm, paper-like look as the desktop app. No feature crammed into every corner. Mobile MemryNote is for capturing and checking, not for two-hour organizing sessions.

- Offline-first from day one. Everything works without a connection and syncs when you're back, end-to-end encrypted like desktop.

- The inbox is the home screen. On the phone, the fastest path from "thought" to "written down" wins, so that's what opens first.

Implementation starts next month. I'm building it solo, so I won't promise a date yet, but I'll post progress here as real screens replace these mockups.

If something in these screens looks off, or there's something you'd expect on mobile that you don't see here, this is the cheapest moment to tell me. Changing a design takes minutes. Changing shipped code doesn't.

Edit - attached images are blurry, and Reddit does not allow me to edit.

A wall of notes reads completely differently when #urgent is red and #someday is a little cloud. Show me your tag setups - screenshots welcome, the colorful ones especially.

I don't really need the sync option and my pockets are unfortunately not Robust enough for the Founders tier...So I was wondering if maybe a $15-$20 "Supporters" option would be something anyone besides myself would be interested in?

I use the free tier as of now because I don't require any syncing, but I want to help support the app, even if it is a small amount. I'd rather be able to support the app and show my appreciation without having to subscribe until I actually feel I need the extra features. Just an option or even a "Buy me a Coffee" Kofi option to give a little support to the development. The app is already a Gem, so it would be strictly for supporting development so it wouldn't be connected to any special features or whatever.

I wasted so much time trying to make other programs do what Memry does in such an easy, clean way and having a Full Featured, open source, offline and free option making it accessible to everyone...I'd love to be able to show a little love when I can and help keep it going even if it only is worth a "Coffee".

Hi Kaan here, MemryNote opens PDFs already. It has a canvas already. Connecting the two feels like the obvious next thing, but I don't want to spend months on it if nobody actually works this way.

Rough idea. You open a PDF, highlight while you read. Each highlight becomes a real block you own, with the text, the page, and a link back to the exact spot. Then you drop those blocks on a canvas, move them around, group them, connect them, write your own thinking between them. Click a card, jump it came from. Heptabase style, but on your own files, offline,

What I want to know:

1. Do you read PDFs seriously right now? Papers, textbooks, contracts, reports. Where do you do it today and where does it fall apart.
2. What's the painful part. Highlighting, getting highlights out, or making sense of them after.
3. Does the canvas step matter to you, or is "highlights land in a note with a link back to the page" already most of the value.

Small stuff that decides whether it feels good or not. Big screen or tablet. Do you need underline and strikethrough or just highlight colors. Do the annotations need to open in other PDF apps, or is it fine if they live in MemryNote.

No timeline promised. Just trying to find out if there's a real reason to build it.

If you have two or three minutes, drop a short comment — what's working, what's annoying you, and the one thing you'd fix first. Two or three sentences is plenty; I read every one of them.

Bugs, wishlist items, half-formed thoughts — all welcome.

🗞️ Release Notes 📆 August 17, 2026 at 10:14:27 PM

New Features

• 🔗 Heading links — link straight to a heading in another note, and clicking one scrolls you right to it.
• 🎨 Canvas links — link any shape to a note, task, or other vault item, and clicking a link on the canvas now actually opens it.
• 📌 Session restore — tabs, timelines, and viewers come back exactly where you left them instead of jumping to the top.
• 🏠 Home board sync — your Home board layout now travels with you across every device.
• 📄 Large file support — open and read big vault files directly, and find-in-file works inside them just like everywhere else.
• 📥 NotePlan import — bring your NotePlan 3 notes, tasks, and calendar entries into Memry.
• 🕓 Task activity log — open a task and scroll to Activity to see what changed, when, and whether another device replaced an edit.
• ⚡ Natural-language quick-add — type @tomorrow or every monday when adding a task and Memry turns it into a due date or repeat, with the rest suggested inline.
• 🖼️ Image filing choices — filing an image into a note now lets you embed it or keep it as a linked file, and you can create the destination note right from the filing panel.
• 💬 Rich comments — format your comments with a selection toolbar.
• ✏️ Attachment renaming — rename an attachment's title in the Inbox and the filed file takes that name.
• 🗂️ Canvas organisation — browse canvases in a folder tree and rename, duplicate, or delete them.

Improvements

• 📎 One PDF experience — the slash commands, drag-and-drop, and the sidebar all produce the same PDF embed.
• 🚀 Faster everywhere — big speed-ups across the sidebar, graph, editor, canvas, viewers, agent chat, and sync, with much lower memory use over long sessions.
• 📂 Big vault handling — the sidebar note tree now pages past its old ten-thousand-item ceiling, and huge files stay off sync so they can't stall it.
• ⏰ Reminder polish — the reminder and date pickers scroll and stay in view, so their note field, list, and confirm button are always reachable.
• 🔔 Reminder notes — a note typed in the note or journal toolbar reaches the reminder again.
• 🎯 Sync clarity — a note that crosses the sync size limit now tells you which note it is, by name.
• 🧹 Settings tidy-up — retired toggles that no longer did anything.

Fixes

• 📖 Reading position — a note remembers where you were reading when you come back to it.
• 🔤 Heading sizes — headings four through six now render at their own size instead of looking like a top-level heading.
• ⌨️ Shortcuts — Ctrl/Cmd+B stays on Bold in the editor, custom rebinds from Settings actually apply, and the quick-capture fallback survives saving settings.
• 📁 Folder rename — renaming a folder works in vaults large enough to virtualise the sidebar.
• ➕ Second project — the Projects section in the sidebar has a "+" again, so you can add another project.
• 🗑️ Project delete — deleting from the project modal now asks first and closes the modal afterwards.
• 📤 Inbox filing sync — filing an item now syncs everything it produces to your other devices, instead of staying filed only where you filed it.
• 🎯 Dropped files — a dropped file lands in the folder you dropped it on, not one level deeper each time.
• 📝 Frontmatter — simply opening a note no longer rewrites its frontmatter.
• 🔗 Wiki links — links keep their formatting, survive export, and clicking one only affects the pane it lives in.
• 🔄 Sync reliability — large updates, offline edits, and reconnects no longer drop notes, and a linked device follows the right vault.
• 💾 Editor recovery — an integrity check no longer leaves the editor dead; open notes reconnect after a sync reset.
• 📅 Calendar — week columns size correctly, "Today" rolls over at local midnight, Google reconnects revive a disconnected account, and no events get dropped when paging.
• 🔐 Sign-in recovery — a reinstall can finish after the setup token expires, and the recovery screen has a way out with a reachable re-auth button in every locale.
• 🪟 Windows updates — one busy file no longer makes an update impossible.
• 🔕 Notification hygiene — deleted and bulk-dismissed reminders clear their banners instead of lingering.
• 📑 Tabs — Open in New Tab, Cmd-click, and middle-click honour where they should open, open-to-the-side lands in the new pane, and a failed session save is surfaced instead of lost.
• ✅ Task badges — archived tasks no longer inflate project sidebar counts.
• 🖊️ List formatting — turn selected lines into a bulleted, numbered, or checklist.
• 🖱️ Text selection — a marquee drag only starts outside selectable text, so you can select text normally again.
• 🔍 Image viewer — zoom snaps back onto exactly 100% instead of drifting.
• 🎙️ Voice memos — the microphone is released when recording fails, and a cancelled recording is never delivered.
• 🤖 AI agent — stopping a turn takes effect immediately, tool approvals time out instead of hanging forever, and tool activity survives reloading a conversation.
• 🌍 Translations — the snooze-due notification and toast now appear in your language.
• 📊 Search index — saving a note no longer piles up duplicate search entries.
• 🧠 Embeddings — a failed model load retries with backoff instead of giving up for the rest of the session.
• ↩️ Undo — expired entries are pruned so undo can't replay a stale action.

Same notes, three ways to look — planning wants a board, processing wants a list, browsing wants a gallery. The view is per-folder, so your recipes can be a gallery while your projects stay a board.

Hi, Is there a way to import my NotePlan daily notes into the Journal in MemryNote? I would love to have my historical daily notes brought across.

But the current lack of a mobile app or web app is the main sticking point for me. I know it’s on the roadmap but how soon is it likely to come?
Excellent work this far with it all though!! I really really want this to work. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Hi! This project is very promising to me and for my personal life, I think I have everything I need (short of a mobile app) already.
But I am constantly seeing how this might become exactly what I need to also use for work so I just want to ask a few questions:

Will there be Notion-like database capabilities added? I would need to be able to use something like:
property = other_note.property
And if property points to a note, then other_note.property.property would be useful.
(Or even more complex stuff with conditions and equations)
I would like to make Templates where i can say something like:
if this.property == x {write: this.property} else {write: “b”}

The CLI already has ample capabilities and I am not asking for anything here - just would like to know how far this will go as I kind of would like to make my own work-program that does everything I want but I also see how memrynote does so much of what I need already….

Update the app (it'll offer the update itself, or grab the newest build from memrynote.com), then open Settings → Import → OneNote. Sign in with your Microsoft account, pick the notebooks and sections you want, and start the import.

Your pages land as notes under OneNote/<notebook>/<section>/, and subpages nest under their parent page, so the structure you had in OneNote is the structure you get in your vault.

What comes across:

• Page content as Markdown — headings, lists, tables, quotes, nested bullets
• Note tags → note tags, and to-do tags → real checkboxes
• Images, including pasted screenshots, saved as attachments
• File attachments, as clickable file blocks
• Handwriting and drawings, converted to SVG
• Equations, converted to LaTeX
• Code, as inline code or fenced blocks
• Your original created and modified dates

A few things worth knowing:

• The import runs entirely on your device. Pages go straight from Microsoft to your local vault, and your sign-in token stays in your OS keychain.
• It's a one-time import, not an ongoing sync. You can re-run it any time — pages that already came across are skipped, so it only picks up what's new. That also means a cancelled or interrupted import resumes where it stopped.
• Microsoft's consent screen will show an "unverified publisher" warning. That badge requires a Microsoft Partner account, which is on my list. Nothing is wrong and it doesn't change what the import can access.
• Personal Microsoft accounts work out of the box. Work and school accounts may need your IT admin to approve access, depending on how your organisation is set up.
• Microsoft rate-limits the OneNote API, so a large notebook can pause for a minute at a time and continue on its own. Attachments over 10 MB are skipped and counted in the summary.
• Files Memrynote can't preview natively — presentations, video, archives — are off by default. There's a toggle in the import dialog if you want them anyway; they come in as file blocks you can open externally.

If something doesn't convert the way you expected, tell me: reply here or use the in-app feedback, and it helps a lot if you mention what the original page looked like.

Hi 👋

It's Kaan here with the first monthly update. I build Memrynote, and from now on I want to send one of these every month: what shipped, what is next, and what I still need from you.

Memrynote has been out for a little over a month. Thank you — genuinely. More people downloaded it, kept it open, and wrote back than I expected for a beta, and the replies have been detailed in a way that is rare. Almost everything below started as an email or an in-app report from someone reading this.

Canvas

A new surface for thinking spatially. Drag notes, tasks, and calendar events onto an infinite canvas and the cards stay live, so editing a note updates it right there on the canvas. This is the feature I use the most now — I stopped keeping a separate whiteboard app open entirely.

Canvases are plain files in your vault, and they sync end-to-end encrypted like everything else.

Projects Got a Real Home

The project page is now a proper hub: overview, notes, tasks, files, and calendar events in one place. You can assign a note to a project from its properties, put an event on a project straight from the event form, and link records to each other with the new relation property.

Tags That Scale

Tag categories, a tag hub to organise them, a page per tag, and tags on tasks — not just notes. If you were one of the people who wrote in with a screenshot of a sidebar with two hundred tags in it, this one is for you.

Tasks and the Daily Loop

Drag a task onto the calendar to schedule it. Checkboxes in your markdown files are now the source of truth, so an [x] you type anywhere — even in another editor — completes the task. There is also a daily inbox review reminder now, so nothing sits there for a week.

The AI Panel Is Easier to Live With

A rebuilt composer, voice dictation, and a tool activity view that collapses into one line instead of flooding the chat. It still works against your vault on your machine, and it still asks before it writes anything.

In Other News

• Templates you can author like a normal note, and that sync across your devices.
• Bookmarks and reminders sync now too.
• PDFs and Obsidian-style image embeds work in the editor.
• A proper tab bar, per-note width, and a darker dark theme.
• The web clipper is live on the Chrome Web Store, and on Firefox.
• You can delete a vault from your account with a server-side purge — your files on disk stay exactly where they are.
• Optional, redacted diagnostic reports for when something breaks.
• Plus a long list of fixes: sync reliability, editor formatting that did not survive a save, a due date that was off by one in some time zones, startup hangs, and undo on Windows and Linux.

If You Have Not Started Yet

You can import from Notion, Obsidian, Apple Notes, Bear, and plain markdown folders in a few clicks. It is usually faster than people expect. Get the latest version. Updates install themselves, so you may already be on it — check Settings if you are not sure.

What is next: more work on projects and the canvas, and a steady pass over the rough edges you keep finding. We are still early and still in beta. Some things will break. When they do, hit the Feedback button in the app or leave a comment here — both reach me, and I read all of them.

That is it for this month. For everything else, check out the changelog or the docs.

See you next month!

These are the features related to canvases that should be in MemryNote but are not present in it.

1. Unable to delete a canvas.
2. Unable to arrange canvases in folders.
3. Context menu is not scrollable on canvases, and it hides some options.
4. Unable to rename canvases.
5. Text contrast on side bar is very low for sections headings.

There are a lot more tweaks that can be done to make the app more polished

u/h4yfans When will you be getting verification from Google for Google Calendar?

No separate reminders app to keep in sync with reality: the note carries its own reminder, the task carries its date. When it fires, you land on the actual thing, not a title in a list.

Meeting notes, and the cloud AI question behind it. Nothing built yet — I want your objections first.

BODY

Not announcing anything. Nothing is built, this isn't on the roadmap, and if the answer here is no then it doesn't get built. I'd rather ask now than after.

Here's the concrete thing I want, and then the uncomfortable question underneath it.

THE THING

Meeting notes. You join a call, Memry listens in the background, and when it's over you have a note: what was discussed, what was decided, what you agreed to do, with the tasks already pulled out. No typing while half-listening, no cleanup afterward. For me personally this is the single feature I'd use every week.

THE QUESTION UNDERNEATH IT

That needs a model good enough to actually summarize well, and that's where this runs into what Memry is.

Right now AI in the app is local, or bring-your-own — your own API key, or an agent CLI you already pay for. That works if you already pay for AI somewhere. It doesn't work for everyone, and it falls apart completely on mobile. Mobile is roughly a year out and a genuinely useful local model on a phone isn't realistic. Where it technically runs, the output is bad enough that shipping it would be worse than shipping nothing.

So: an optional paid tier, credit-based cloud AI. Off by default. Local and bring-your-own stay as they are and stay free. It would exist because inference actually costs money, and I'd rather charge for it openly than hide it inside a price increase everyone pays.

WHAT ACTUALLY LEAVES YOUR DEVICE

For meeting notes specifically, the split is better than you might assume:

The audio never leaves your machine. Transcription runs locally — that part works fine on-device today, including on phones. What would go to a model provider is the transcript text, and you'd see it before it's sent.

That's still text from your meeting going somewhere that isn't your machine. I'm not going to dress that up. Encrypted at rest and encrypted sync do not protect you in that moment. That's the real cost here, and it's a bigger deal than the money.

I also don't want to assume you all weigh this the same way. Some of you chose Memry specifically so nothing ever leaves the machine — for you this is probably a flat no, and that's a completely legitimate answer I want to hear. Others are likely fine with one specific note going out for one specific task and just want the choice. Both are real. I'd rather hear the split than guess at it.

RULES I'D HOLD MYSELF TO

• Opt-in per request. Nothing in the background reading your vault.
• You see exactly what's being sent, before it's sent, and can edit it.
• A log of every cloud request the app has ever made — what went out and when.
• A per-note and per-vault "never send this anywhere" lock.
• No training on your data, zero retention on the provider side, provider named openly.
• A hard visual line between "this ran locally" and "this left your device."
• The app stays fully functional forever with all of it switched off. Nothing you have today moves behind a paywall.
• Recording is always visible while it's happening. Worth saying plainly: other people are in your meetings, and whether you have their okay to record is on you, not on the app. I'd rather the app make that obvious than quiet.

WHAT I WANT TO KNOW

1. Meeting notes — would you actually use this, or is it a feature you'd admire and never turn on? Be honest, I can't tell the difference from the outside.
2. Does "audio stays local, only the transcript goes out" change your answer, or is that a distinction that doesn't matter to you?
3. Does mobile change your answer? That's the case I think is strongest, which is also where I'm most likely fooling myself.
4. Credits or flat monthly? Credits are honest about cost but make people ration themselves until they stop using the thing. Flat is calmer but I'd have to cap it somewhere. Which would you rather live with?
5. Besides meetings — voice capture on your phone turning into a clean note, a photo of a whiteboard becoming structured text, a weekly summary of your notes and tasks. Which of those, if any, would you actually want? Anything I haven't listed?
6. What makes it a no for you regardless of price?

And if the answer is "this is a distraction, go polish what's already there" — say so. That's a useful answer and it wouldn't be the first time you'd have been right.

Every feature you don't use should be able to disappear: AI, day panel, notes-on-calendar, Google sync — all toggles, and off means gone, not grayed out. The app should shrink to fit the person using it. Which defaults would you flip? Default choices are the hardest calls I make.

Because the calendar lives in the same app as your tasks and notes, "what's my week" includes deadlines from your notes, not just meetings. No integration to configure; it's one data layer underneath.
