  2. Move top icons away from new multitasking button

    Since the apple software update there’s now a button on top of the screen to help split the screen but it’s annoying cus it gets in the way if it was moved to the side it would help

    In our latest update, we moved the top icons slightly down from the new multitasking buttons so they're not SO in the way. Download the latest version in the App Store and let us know if this works better for you now. Thanks!

  3. Single page view / vertical page

    Would like the option to have a single page view where I can have my iPad and page in portrait mode. The two page view makes it hard to write on since it shows up so small. A single page view would allow me to use my full screen to view my current daily page.

    You can currently import fonts into Zinnia! On the font selection menu, there is an icon directly to the right of the search bar. Tap that, and you can choose to import any font you have on your device. If you have any issues or have questions, email us at support@zinniajournal.com

  5. Calligraphy pen writing tool

    Now that smoothing has been introduced (yay!) I’d like to see a calligraphy tool introduced to do custom lettering. I tried using the highlighter tool (because it is tapered) with max opacity, but I wasn’t getting the small skinny up strokes and thick downstrokes that I wanted with the highlighter. Plus, if I use a light shade with the highlighter and run back over a section, I can see where I went back on my letter.

    We have some exciting news - introducing Zinnia's calligraphy pen! We tailored its design to the new Apple Pencil Pro, and it works beautifully with the Pro's innovative Barrel Roll feature. Don't have the new Apple Pencil Pro? You'll still be able to write wonderfully with the new calligraphy pen.  


    After selecting the calligraphy pen: Hover your Apple Pencil Pro, see the brush head preview, then roll your pencil to see how your strokes will line up. With the Pro's responsive stylus, you can create thin and thick, dark and light lettering that looks and feels just like real-life calligraphy.

  6. Folders / shelves - to organize by month, topic, or archive old journals

    Organize journals by month, topic, or have an "archive" folder to put old journals.

    Could also put folders inside a journal, so for example, what this user requested:

    In a 12 months planner, I want to be able to close Out months when I’m finished with them, but easily reopen for reference later as needed. Or if my journal has several topics, be able to open and close those topics and work within one space at a time. Page organizing.

    We have some exciting news to share - folders are here! To create a new folder, just tap the "+" icon in the upper right-hand corner. To move a journal into a folder, you can long hold on the journal using your finger or Apple pencil and drag and drop it into the folder you want. You can also move your journal to a folder using the three dot menu in the bottom right-hand corner of the journal. We hope you love this new feature! 

  7. "New page" icon at the top of your journal, not the bottom

    When you open a journal and you want to add a new page. You can open that new page from the beginning of the journal instead of having to scroll through all the pages to get to the ads new page feature does my head in every single time

    We have resolved this by having the New Page button float on top of the list of pages so it is always accessible, regardless of where you are in journal pages view.

  8. Click links without having to also click ‘go to link’

    I want to be able to navigate throughout journals quickly and when I click a link I have to also click go to link. It’d be nice to be able to turn that off and just go to link without having to click that. I’m trying to switch from zinnia from Goodnotes and this is a must if I’m going to make the switch.

  9. Tabbed journals with dividers, index hyperlinks, or table of contents

    Being able to click between dates in your journal or entries to help organise (which can also mean tabbed journals are an option) would be fantastic.

    • Thanks to everyone for your amazing feedback on these features.
    • We now have linking in Zinnia, and have been adding more and more tabs in the Studio, so you can now manually create your own dividers and linkable tabs. 
    • This feature request seems to be a blending of a few different requests, so I have created a new request called "Automatic index and table of contents," which you can access and upvote here if you'd like. I'm going to close this feature request since we have implemented linking and tabbed dividers in the Studio. I have also collected all of the comments and feedback and have referenced them with the team. Appreciate all of you!!!
  10. Distribute & justify text options

    Comparable to left/center/right text alignment. Spreads/spaces out words and/or paragraphs to fit the full text box margin to margin!

  11. Place images from folder

    I have my phone backup in dropbox and it would be great if you could add a photo/image from a file folder either on the ipad or in a cloud folder.

    You can do this in Zinnia currently! Just go to your folder on your device, select the image, copy, and paste into Zinnia. You can also do a split-screen with Dropbox or whatever file folder you are using, along with Zinnia, and drag and drop the images into your journal. Hope this helps!

  16. Create and save custom color palettes, including recents

    Idea 1: Ability to create a palette of colors that could be used, for instance, throughout a themed journal or page. This would also allow the ability to save frequently used/favorite custom colors.

    Idea 2: Hi there — I’m LOVING Zinnia and have spent hours today making journals and calendars. Something that’s taken tons of time and is very repetitive is having to use the color picker to select custom font colors for each new text box. It would be wonderful to have a recent swatch menu like the one you provide for the ink colors in the drawing part…

    We're so excited to announce we now have color palettes! Check out the latest update and see it for yourselves - it's seriously a game changer. Create and save your own palettes, or choose from a selection of curated Zinnia palettes. This also comes with a new brush menu, where you can add unlimited pens to your toolbar!


    Please let us know how you like the update :)

  17. Enable Zinnia to be open twice in split-screen mode on iPad

    Similar to Microsoft Word, it would be amazing to be able to open Zinnia twice to reference multiple journals or pages at the same time (example, I could have my journal’s calendar open while I look at my notes from a school notebook to cross-reference upcoming quiz dates).

  18. Crop, mask, or erase parts of content and photos

    Just a few examples: I would definitely want to apply, for instance, a paper texture behind (or into) a frame. If the frame is hand-drawn I may want to create a mask that follows the contours of the frame. Or if the frame and texture are of different proportions I may want to crop the texture so it fits. Or I may not want to scale the texture down, so I would create a mask to reveal a portion of the texture at 100% of size.

  20. Move pages between journals

    I have a few journals going and I accidentally created a page in the wrong journal…so I tried to move it but couldn’t.

    I would like the ability to easily move pages or content from one journal to another…

    You can definitely do this in Zinnia :) When you are in the pages view (where you see all pages in a single journal), tap on the page you want to move, then tap the "move" button. You can then decide what journal you want to add this page to.
