already gave you guys and girls some information about Moleskine, the notes app on steroids.

Well the developer released an update today, and what an update it has become.

Not all the features we’ve seen in the video are there, but it’s already baffling.

Let me take the official notes from Databinge.com :

Additions:

• voice notes recording
• added cassette icons to the theme
• animate audio and camera button
• 2-finger tap (on the same row)/slide on the browser view to toggle maximise/minimize browser (use 1 finger to scroll)
• localization : French version is available (with French theme shortly at sosiphone.com)
• sorting added
• tap on status bar when in full browsing mode to toggle rearranging (status bar will turn orange)
• tap on status bar when in full editting mode to toggle auto-capitalization
• shake to go back to the previous view
• last note editted is saved if user exit directly by pressing HOME button
• on exit, a backup is created

Changes:

• popup notifications changed to slide up notifications
• destructive button for delete
• improvement memory management
• tap once in text area to toggle editting mode
• slide finger in editting mode (instead of tapping) to bring up magnifier (if you tap, if will hide the keyboard - sliding is keeping your fingers there and move around while tapping is just tap and instantaneously lifting your fingers)
• in full editting mode, everything else gets hidden to give more space
• when magnifying on text, the whole text area will shift down a little to accomodate the magnifying glass so that it is not out of range if you try to edit the top most line
• large text
• removed the option to delete a folder if it contains subfolder (makes the program more stable)
• scrolling about view
• removed instructions
• renamed preferences plist

Fixes:

• magnifier not focused
• last line of text hidden
• when transitioning to editting view, text appears large and shrinks immediately

You will notice that when you launch it for the first time, it will quite immediately. That’s normal. After that it should be fine. A lot of those features that you have seen in the video (camera, different ways of using accelerometer, are not released yet). I think the list above will get me lots of bugs report .. maybe too much to handle at the moment to release everything.

In the meantime, the developer HC released 3 theme’s with icons for your Moleskine.

I’ll show you the updated screens as well as the new themes.

This great app is available in the Installer.app through the modmyifone and databinge packaging source, see our sources page.

Enjoy
