Whiteboard / Mindmap / Canvas / Drawing
The ability to connect multiple entities on a whiteboard and add free text. The whiteboard itself is also an entity and has it's own database. A good implementation is Heptabase.

OCR & Handwritten search
It might be a niche feature, but one that is not that common for PKMs, so it might be a good competitive edge. Personally, I know I have a huge amount of handwritten notes I'd like to make searchable into my knowledge tool, and so far there is only really Evernote that does it (or Onenote, but..).

Manual Sort
Similar to Notion's grouping by sorting functionality, I think there should be other ways to sort aside from alphabetical (asc/desc). For example, visual ⭐ ratings or statuses may not be sorted in this fashion.

Android/iOS Widgets or Quick Tile
My work flow throughout the day has been to capture info as quickly as possible. Currently I have created a TickTick quick tile on my Pixel. So even with the phone still locked, I can swipe down, click the tile, capture an idea. It's quick and easy and I can do it when I drive, am walking, or even feeding my little toddler for dinner. But because I have been trying to create my second brain within Capacities, this always means then transferring those quick captures here. So a quick tile and/or widget would really be great. A widget would probably be the more likely way to go on mobile because they can be created for Android and iOS users.

Audio Transpile / Speech-to-Text / OpenAI Whisper Transcription Integration
OpenAI's Whisper model does a great job at taking voice recordings and transcribing them perfectly. This can be great for transcribing meetings or voice notes for quick capture. It would even be cool to take voice recordings from Telegram voice notes or WhatsApp.

Daily Note Properties
I've seen quite a few people create a separate daily object to add properties to since that is not an option with the Daily Notes. I would love for properties to be an actual feature on them. The way I would use this is to add checkbox properties to track my habits.

App and Site Freezing on iPad
Whenever I go to object settings, the entire app/site freezes and I’m unable to click anything. The only option is to restart the app but if I go to object settings agin the problem continues, meaning I am unable to edit object settings at all Capacities v1.59.11; none none; Mac OS v10.15.7; WebKit v605.1.15 (WebKit v605.1.15); Tablet (Capacitor); 22/03/2026, 02:41:41; en (Europe/London, UTC+0)

Nested Tags / Hierarchy for tags
Add tags hierarchy so we can tag items very granuarly like #recipe/breakfast and #recipe/dinner which can all be viewed under #recipe.

Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, Yearly Notes
I think it would be a great addition to have Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly Notes along with the Daily Notes interface. For example, by pressing the number buttons above the calendar to create one.

Handwritten Notes & Draws
I would love to be able to take handwritten notes / draw directly in the app, or even on embeded medias, and to draw links between differant objects
