Owl 1.2 - Text editing improvements

October 11, 2024

For this update we’ve focused on improving the text editing experience.

There are two new buttons in the toolbar:

• An Emoji button makes it easier than ever to introduce emojis and special characters. And it works for titles too!
• A Link button allows you to create links without having to remember the keyboard shortcut (it’s ⌘K, by the way!) or searching for it through menu bar commands.

Another major improvement is the support for standard text autocorrection and substitution options. Owl can now check your spelling and grammar and correct typos automatically! You can toggle these options in the 'Spelling and Grammar' and 'Substitutions' submenus when right-clicking on the note editor (they are on by default).

And there’s more! We’ve fixed many bugs and refined the copy-pasting experience.

Owl 1.2 is available on the Mac App Store.
