Are there any plans to add iPad support in the near future?

I would like to see some user documentation. There are so many functions that you sometimes introduce in your email newsletter, but how does this all together? And where can I look up user functionality if I forgot how to do it?
So far most docu seems to be for developers (it's a good thing that's there, of course)

Love to see a Opensource Community version of AppFlowy without paywalls to any feature.

Greetings. I recently discovered Appflowy and to me, it's like a much easier to use, much more aesthetically pleasing, and more bidirectionally or omni-directionally relational Microsoft Access. I know it has some of the qualities in terms of relational database, and I have had a tad bit of experience using Microsoft Access a couple of decades ago.

I'm very much enamored of this app and kudos to the great dev team and everyone else involved in Appflowy. But I will suggest something as a total newbie and, really - if I'm honest - not a tech person per se (although I like my tech and again, I like apps like Tana and Capacities and AFFiNE and of course Appflowy and Microsoft Access, etc.). I will humbly suggest that the nomenclature you guys use was a little confusing to me because I'm used to a flat file Kanban system, such as that by Trello. But your Kanban is way more flexible and powerful, and so it was confusing to me where sub pages were so called, but really weren't sub pages at least in my mind. They're really sub views or different views. That was a little confusing to me and it took me several weeks to get it. Of course if I had paid more attention and read more of the literature, I might have gotten it quicker, but it's a bit confusing if you're just gonna jump into it, at least for me.

I just got that little misunderstanding of mine cleared up and wanted to share my "aha" moment and do a sort of public "duh" moment for myself, having finally gotten something fundamental and discarding my own 2D view of a particular aspect of the UI.
Anyhow, love the app, and hope to learn it and use it... delightfully!

Recently tried AppFlowy after a long time and finally seems like feature complete to me. But here the things I think many users will appreciate

1. System Notifications. Current notifications only show up in the app when I have it opened.
2. Why using local AI models require login? I have Ollama setup on my PC , I should be able to connect to that without making account or having to loin to AppFlowy cloud.
3. Again template requires signin to appflowy account when it really shouldn't. I mean all other similar apps allow you to import without having to login.

⚠️ It appears that the creation of new discussion topics has been disabled here, and support.appflowy.io has been shut down. Is AppFlowy going out of business ?

[xa4hf8]

Discord requires a phone number, and I refuse to provide that information.
Can I recommend Matrix or Simplex.Chat instead ?

[annieappflowy]

@xa4hf8 , where do you want to post discussion?

I just tested posting a discussion. It works for me. Is there any error message on your side?

Would really like multi-tab support like an IDE.

[annieappflowy]

Have you tried open in a new tab?

[renjithsamuel]

Tried it, It was great. didn't know it existed earlier.

I would love to see more features in addition to this like:

1. stacking the tabs side by side.
2. I've noticed ctrl + w closes the tab, it would be great to add new tab with ctrl + t and ctrl + shift + t reopens closed tab, and ctrl + tab switches between tabs.
