If you are Pro user or Life-long learner you can activate this by going to the Labs setting and turning on “Omnibar Preview”.This will now show a preview of the selected Search result and is also scrollable and you could also interact with the preview minimally (expand and close backlink sections).We would like to get more feedback here to know if this is actually useful to your workflow and/or if you would like to see more features here.         📆 NLP for Dates in the OmnibarNatural Language Processing (NLP) in the Omnibar now recognises dates and helps retrieve the correct Daily Document.

However, keep in mind that this syncing will not be as effective as RemNote’s own syncing mechanism.⏩ Faster Desktop AppEnjoy a faster, snappier Desktop App. Loading documents, editing, syncing, backups, and more all got a significant performance boost. We won’t stop until everything feels instant. 🏗 High-Fidelity ImportsWe have created full-fidelity import support for Workflowy, Dynalist, and Obsidian.
