Summary of April Improvement Measures: Keyword search for articles, timeline article selection, new update information section, and more

At note, the improvement team works daily on measures to make note a more user-friendly place. This time, we will introduce a summary of the improvement measures from April.

■You can now search for past articles by keyword for each creator!

You can now search for a creator's past articles. On a creator's page, you can search by entering keywords for the articles you want to read in the search box at the top right, or by entering "from:@note ID search word" directly into the search box on your home screen. We believe this improvement has also enhanced note's functionality as an archive.

The search function can also be used in the iOS app. In the iOS app, you can use the function by entering keywords from the search icon at the top right of the creator screen.

■You can now choose between "All / Following" for articles displayed in the timeline

By clicking the newly added "Following" button, you can filter the timeline to show only updates from creators you follow. We created this "Following" tab so that various readers can use the timeline according to their own purposes.

■A new section for update information has been added to the home screen. It is now easier to check updates from people you follow!

In response to feedback such as "I follow too many creators and miss their articles," we have created a section to display creator update information. Icons for creators, magazines, and circles that have been updated recently will appear at the top of the note home screen. Clicking them allows you to check information on the pages that have been updated.

■We have added emoji buttons (❤️😆👏) to the comment section to make it easier to send warm comments to authors

To make communication between creators and readers more casual, we have experimentally added emoji buttons (❤️😆👏) to the comment section. Emojis and short comments can motivate creators to continue their creative work. If you read an article and feel it's wonderful, please use the comment function to share your feelings with the creator.

■Linking your note to shops created on e-commerce sites is now easier! It is now easier to promote your shop or brand to fans.

You can now display links to your shops in the profile section of your creator page, making the "Store" function even easier to use. You can connect e-commerce sites to note to further promote your shop or brand.
note supports those who take on the challenge of their own creative work in the form of running a shop, whether they are corporations or individuals.

■ Notifications from note now appear in speech bubbles

Notifications from note now appear in speech bubbles. We will inform you about new features and how to use them, so please check them when they appear.

■ You can now create header images with Canva in the iOS app as well
