What steps will reproduce the problem?

Running v9.5 on HTC Flyer...

Is there a way to keep notebooks in a folder system for better organization?

Many thanks!

Would be glad to see this as well. If I dont want to put all the sessions in 
one single notebook it could quite come to some hundreds notebooks - how to 
organize and choose them without folders (or tags style database etc.)? And it 
shouldn't be too much work to implement it ;)

I agree with what OP is suggesting. It would be ideal if we were able to make 
folders within folders to our heart's content. For example, a main folder of 
mine might be "School". Another main would be "Other." Within school I would 
have "Chemistry" and then "Biology," etc. Within Chemistry I would make a 
folder called "Lecture Notes" and another called "Homework problems," and so on 
and so forth. Right now, as quill is now, it is absolutely inefficient when it 
comes to organization.

A more sophisticated way to organize the pages/notebooks to allow for:
- selecting pages to delete and also reorder within the notebook
- organizing notebooks in folders and subfolders

Comparing this app to a former iPad note-app that I was using: NotesPlus:

NotesPlus had an overlay in landscape-mode on the left side. This was shown 
when clicked on a toolbar button. Which made the folders and subfolders 
visible, down to the notebook and even within the notebook as a preview of the 
pages. 

Therefore a folder could contain notebooks and folders, notebooks could contain 
pages and all was visible and selectable as a folder/tree-structure - much like 
the folders in a File-explorer on Windows/Linux.

In this overlay it was possible to reorganize the folder strucure by selecting 
several notebooks/folders or even pages and then move/copy them to a different 
folder.

It also allowed to reorganize the pages within a notebook or in a different 
notebook or even export/save only the selected several notebooks/pages as pdf 
to dropbox.

Quite intuitive to include pages as substructure of notebooks in the same 
interface.
