Notesnook

PM
Velocity5.0

End-to-end encrypted note-taking app with task lists, web clipper, and team collaboration.

Notesnook is in a stabilization sprint, hardening its 3.4 line across desktop and mobile.

Current state
Notesnook shipped its 3.4 minor across desktop, Android, and web, then spent the following week issuing rapid point releases. Recent work centers on database reliability — SQLite module-loading and migration errors — plus a Linux startup-crash hotfix and backup/attachment fixes. The 3.4 beta also carried a security fix for stored XSS in HTML export.
Where it's heading
The cadence is maintenance-heavy: five point releases in roughly a week following 3.4.0, most fixing regressions in SQLite handling and platform-specific crashes. This reads as post-release stabilization rather than new capability, with desktop and Android kept in lockstep. Feature work from the 3.4 beta — trash management, date-format handling — has landed and is now being hardened.
Prediction
Expect the point-release stream to taper as the 3.4 line settles, followed by a 3.5 beta opening the next feature cycle. No directional shift is visible in these entries.

    Notesnook Desktop v3.4.3

    Another desktop point release in the post-3.4.0 stabilization sequence, tracking the Android line closely. The content is a blog pointer, indicating an incremental maintenance drop rather than new capability.

    Notesnook Android v3.4.4 (internal version bump)

    A version-bump-only release adding a mobile bump-version script — internal release plumbing with no user-visible change. It reflects the tooling side of the rapid 3.4 point-release cadence.

    Notesnook Desktop v3.4.2

    Fixes the SQLite module-not-found and migration errors that dogged the 3.4 rollout, and improves bulk-attachment UX and backup filename handling. A representative stabilization drop cleaning up 3.4.0 regressions.

    Notesnook Desktop v3.4.1

    A hotfix for a Linux startup crash (missing sqlite-fts5-html), otherwise identical to 3.4.0. It underlines that SQLite packaging was the main 3.4 rollout pain point.

    Notesnook Desktop v3.4.0

    The 3.4 minor for desktop, landing the beta's feature work — trash management, date-format handling, and a stored-XSS export fix. Its low-detail entry belies that this is the release the subsequent point fixes were stabilizing.
