Any idea when this feature will be added? I don't know how other people feel but for me this is more important than any other feature as it stops me adding notes!

Love this app. By far the most useful app on the device for me.
Could someone please help me please though. How do I back up my note? Have around 50 important notes now and would cry if I lost them. Read from page 1 to 14 to try to find how but there was already talk on page 13 of back up without me seeing any instructions on how to do it.

If for any reason you donīt want to backup all your data but only the notes, you can copy the folder /home/user/.conboy somewhere. All notes are stored inside this folder.

1. I have copied all my 98 notes to my pc for backup. I tried to open them on my pc to see if I could edit them but Windows could recognise the file. I downloaded Tomboy to see if that would work but it didn't. So am I write in thinking the files can only be viewed on the N900.
2. I have noticed that on my N900 at least (not sure if it is a widespread problem) Conboy has a conflict with QStar Dict. If QStar is open then Conboy freezes up and becomes unusable. Not sure if the problem is from Conboy or from QStar.

But at least I can see the contents of my notes in case something every happens to my N900.

Forget your thesis, we need syncing! Have you no sense of priorities?

But seriously -- Conboy seems currently the best note-taker available. But I have spent many hours looking for a more mind-mapping option. I am actually a paid member at www.mindmeister.com, which is close, but just doesn't work quite right on the N900. I was a long-term fan of thebrain.com (and paid for it) but that would never work on a tablet. Xournal doesn't do it for me. Labyrinth was close, but it is not currently available for the N900. Evernote is nice, but not quite. My favorite solution for tablets so far was Notecase, which is no longer being developed, but which can still be used, I think.

If it's really bothering you, please file a bug and I'll see what I can do.
