Summary of March Improvement Measures: Using museum images for cover photos, making subscription magazines easier to reach, sharing articles to Stories from the app, and more

At note, the improvement team works daily to make note a more user-friendly place. Here, we introduce a summary of the improvement measures from March.

・・・

■You can now set works widely published by museums around the world as note cover images.
You can now set images of works widely published by museums around the world as note cover images. You can set them from "Everyone's Photo Gallery," a feature that allows you to use images provided by other creators as article cover images.
As a first step, we have uploaded about 500 images of works widely published by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in Manhattan to Everyone's Photo Gallery. We plan to continue making images of works published by various institutions available for creators to use.

■Subscription magazines have become easier to reach readers
When a creator starts a subscription magazine, followers will now receive a notification. We have also added a "Subscribe" button to magazines displayed on the creator's page on smartphones.
We hope to help reduce the disappointing experience for creators who feel "not enough people are reading my subscription magazine," and help them start and enjoy continuing their subscription magazines with ease.

■You can now reply immediately from the support message notification email
To help you express your gratitude immediately to those who have supported you, we have added a link to reply via email to the supporter in the support message notification email.

■We are also steadily making improvements to minor points
In addition, we have adjusted sound notes so they appear the same size when lined up with other posts, and added a flow to "Copy share link" immediately after scheduling a post. We are making improvements even in small details so that note can become a slightly more comfortable "town" for all creators.

■You can now introduce note articles to Facebook and Instagram Stories from the iOS app
You can now recommend articles you have written with care, or articles you enjoyed reading, to your friends on Facebook and Instagram via "Stories." You can easily "share" to Stories from the button at the top of the screen, so please give it a try.

■You can now register images to Everyone's Photo Gallery from the iOS app as well
We have added an "Images" item to the account screen. Images used in articles are displayed there, and you can register them to "Everyone's Photo Gallery" from there.

■We have made various other minor improvements to the iOS app

・Organized items in the account tab and renewed the design
・Enabled tapping to enlarge or download images within articles
・Made it easier to understand where an image will be embedded when dropping photos from external apps on the iPad post screen
・Added a character count display to the bottom right of the post screen

■Thank you messages are now displayed in the Android app as well
Thank you messages are now displayed when you "like" an article on the timeline or follow a creator. Images and messages will pop up.

We consider improvement items based on the feedback and requests we receive from all our creators. We will continue to work on creating an environment that makes creative activities easier, so please feel free to share your opinions with us.
