Changelog

What’s new in Monoshiri Memo.

v1.5.3

2026-08-29 Latest

Checkboxes are larger and easier to see. The strike-through on a completed item now covers only the text, not the marker.
Typing - [] without the space now becomes a checkbox too.
Fixed empty table cells collapsing, which made them hard to click into.
Fixed the “This Mac” tab appearing on iPad, where it cannot be used.
Opening a .md from Finder now opens just that file. Use the button in the list to open its folder.

2026-08-28

A URL written on its own now opens in the browser on a plain click — it used to need ⌘ or Ctrl. To put the cursor there instead, click just before or after it.

2026-08-26

Fixed the × for deleting a table row or column vanishing as you moved towards it, so it could not be clicked. The buttons sit outside the table, but they were only shown while the pointer was over the row or column itself.
Fixed the cursor landing on the wrong line when you clicked in text that follows a fold, a diagram or a formula. Those blocks were measured at the wrong height, so every line below them mapped one row off.

2026-08-24

You can type straight into table cells. Enter commits, Tab moves to the next cell, Esc cancels. A button at the top right of the table switches to writing the Markdown by hand.
You can add and remove table rows and columns. Hover the table for the + at its right and bottom edges; the × above a column or left of a row removes it.
Shift+Enter breaks a line inside a table cell. A Markdown table holds one row per line, so it is saved as <br>.
Renaming a file or folder, or dragging it somewhere else, updates the links that point at it. The note you have open is fixed too.
Trashing the note you have open closes it and returns to the opening screen. The same happens when you trash the folder it sits in.
Fixed a problem where a line break inside a link's label could break the way the note is displayed.
Fixed a problem where an image whose file name contains a space would not appear. The <~/images/desk photo.jpg> form is understood as well.
The second level of nested lists used to be the same colour as a link. It now has its own, and the colours adapt to dark themes.
Diagrams have buttons at the top right too: + / − to zoom, and ⟨⟩ to go back to the original notation.

2026-08-22

You can search the text of every note in the current location — type in the box at the top left, or press ⌘⇧F. Folders you have not opened are covered too.
Collapsible sections are supported. Insert one from “Collapsible” in the / menu and click the bar to open or close it; the contents sit inside a frame.
Text width can be set to Normal / Wide / Full from “View”.
The file list can be shown or hidden (⌘\, or the button at the top left) — on a wide screen too, so the text can use the full width.
Right-click a .md file in the Finder and choose “Open With” to open it here (Mac only).
Coming back from another app refetches the note, so edits made on another device are no longer overwritten with a stale copy.
Switch between “Google Drive” and “This Mac” with tabs. The app always starts on Google Drive (Mac only).
A “Create a new file” button appears when nothing is open.
The / menu and other popups close with Esc or a click outside. A new page can also be created inside an existing folder.
“Disconnect” is now “Sign out” and has moved into “View” at the top right — it sat next to the sidebar toggle and was easy to hit by mistake.

2026-08-19

Now available on iPhone. On narrow screens the file list becomes a drawer — open it with the button at the top left, or by swiping in from the left edge.
Formulas are supported. Wrap them in $ for inline math, or in $$ for a block, and they are typeset as you type.
Click a footnote reference or its definition to jump to the other one.
Code blocks keep their syntax colours when you add a file name, as in ``` `js:app.js ```.
Margins and button sizes now adapt to the width of the screen, and the line you are editing is no longer hidden behind the keyboard.
Fixed a problem where text could be missing when opening a Japanese PDF.

2026-08-16

Type / at the start of a line to open a command menu for headings, lists, tables, images, links and more.
PDFs now open inside the app — scroll through the pages right there.
Links are shown as just their label and open with a click. Move the cursor next to one to get the original markup back for editing.
After following a link you can go back and forward (⌘[ / ⌘], and the browser's own Back button in the web version).
On Mac you can now open and edit a folder on your computer instead of Google Drive.

2026-08-14

You can now attach documents such as PDF, Excel and Word. They appear in the note as a file chip — ⌘/Ctrl + click to open.
Files and folders in the left list can now be dragged onto another folder to move them.
Fixed an issue where pressing Enter in a list could insert an unintended blank line.
Fixed an issue where, while typing a name, the Enter that confirms an IME conversion created the file straight away.

2026-08-11

Released the browser version — use it at app.monoshiri.jp with nothing to install.
Added support for Google Drive’s “Open with” menu.
Refreshed the themes; six are now available.
Made permission granting at sign-in more reliable, so the first connection goes smoothly.
