Oooooof you all need to get some better security on your comment section, flooded with SPAM/SCAM comments. :p
But I wanted to chime in on this, as it is my top needed feature and reason why I came to this forum to suggest it.
First let me say, congratulations on creating the BEST note taking app that uses Apple Pencil and works across many all platforms. (Can't wait till I can pull up my notes on my Pixel 9 Pro). Overall I appreciate how clean and well thought the design is (this is coming from a Sr. Design Program Manager @ Amazon).
So for this feature, I want to illustrate the usecase a bit more so as I think it goes a little bit deeper than the original poster.
For me is about structured organization and hierarchy . As it is now, I generally have to create a "book" for each grouping of things. So for example at work I'll have a book for my general notes, then I have one for 1:1s, and then I have one for each program I manage, etc. At home I do a lot of crafting, so for example when I'm doing my oils - I have a book for perfumes, a book for soaps, a book for body wash. And then within each book, I have to swipe frantically through pages to find stuff. I do know you can Bookmark and create an Outline - which is pretty much getting to the functionality, just needs a bit more.
So let's take the Outline - I think this would be better served as the 'Tabs' idea. What would be great is to have it function like proper sectioning for your book.
So you create a new section, which then adds it to your Outline - each new section would be like a mini-notebook within that notebook. Creating it would give it a cover page (user can select design, much like they do when creating a new Notebook) and as a user I can quickly jump to this and add pages and tabs (so under outline I would see each section, and under each section would be named tabs).
So the use case would be that I can have a folder for Work. In that Folder I can have a Notebook for Meetings and another for Projects. Going into the Projects Notebook - I open up my Outline and I have a section for an AI project I'm working on and other for the capacity planning program I'm doing, etc. And I can see under each of these are my tabs which may be "Project Goals and Timeline", "10/10/2025 Notes", "12/2/2025 Notes", "Risks" etc.
So with a clearer structure to my notes, I can easily find exactly what I need with very little effort. Right now, I often need to jump back out to the folder and books, and then back in and then back again. Which is a slow process (speed is okay if I am just selecting a single book and going in, but back and forth feels slow so would be nice to just quickly jump to sections/pages etc.)
