  1. Calendar View

    I create content. I would like to see all my posts / videos / podcasts in a calendar view, using different fields depending on what I need to see. (due date, publishing date, editor delivery date, etc) Tana just implemented this and it's great to replace tools as ClickUp, Asana, Trello, Monday and Notion that are widely used for content planning. Capacities can do much better!

  2. Reminders for Tasks

    Should be able to use the '@' sign to set a reminder back to that object

  3. 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.

  4. Native Callout Block for Highlighted Content

    Capacities currently lacks a dedicated callout block for visually and semantically highlighting important content (e.g., notes, warnings, definitions). Quote styling is a possible workaround, but this is not semantically explicit and does not provide consistent visual differentiation. Suggestion: Introduce a native Callout block with: – Predefined types (Info, Note, Warning, Important, Example, Definition) – Subtle background styling or accent border – Optional icon support – Full nesting capability – Compatibility with object references (@objects) – Proper Markdown/HTML export support A structured callout block would significantly improve readability and documentation quality in longer knowledge objects. It would also align Capacities with established PKM editing standards.

  5. Reading mode / Lock blocks, lock page

    Would love to be able to lock a page to prevent editing, it's annoyingly easy to accidentally create a new line break and a shortcut-toggled page lock would take care of that. Even better if locking at the block/item level was an option.

  7. 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

  8. Merge Items and Tags

    I have created some objects which are very similar or tags which cover the same area. It would be good if we can merge the tags, items to a single one. The content of a page could then just be appended.

  9. Notifications/Reminders for Tasks

    It would be great for a reminder/notification to appear at a specific time for a task, ideally for Android/iOS but also desktop and web.

  10. Image sync unreliable

    Steps to reproduce: Copy image from iPhone to a daily note Open desktop version and go to the calendar on the day of the note The image is there on the iPhone version but on desktop I get this fail message I've tried rebooting as suggested on another bug, but is still not working.

  11. 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.

  12. 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.

  14. Emails as unique object type

    It would be great to have the option for forwarded emails to be saved to their own unique object type in addition to the current functionality of appending them to the Daily Notes.

  15. Page Version History

    It would be great if I could roll back a note by 15mins-1h whilst i'm working on it in case I delete something I wanted to keep.
