Note issues can be input directly as text in a built-in editor #226

All note issues can be input directly as text in a built-in editor, this will be a huge challenge, but I think it should be a must-have feature as a real NOTES entry in the future, it can bring all user quite a convenient and efficiency. maybe this will lead to a significant reconsitution with the whole product, highly recommend bringing about this great function as a long-term plan.

You mean right in the list of notes? As in WorkFlowy/Dynalist ?

Some improvement for quicker input/edit is definitely needed, I'm just not sure if that type is the way to go.

Perhaps no better anwsers, but I'm sure that is one of the best way to improve efficiency in outlining app, Obviously Moo.do, Workflowy, Dynalist have great performance on note issues entering, but your app has more individualized approach for note items editing, and the great reminders is a definite advantage compared with above apps, so make good for deficiency on entering issues, maybe become a most pressing demand of high priority in future.

We need something for smoother input, this issue can be for whatever that might be.

I think a quick-edit mode in the settings could benefit this app a lot, as currently the time it takes to add notes makes it infeasible to use Orgzly in a fashion similar to other outliners.

Update: I have started experimenting with this a bit in my fork. Seems like the main things to do are:
