Here is a list of 30 major features and improvements made in Notezilla 9.
1) Android and iPhone apps now support formatted text
Notezilla apps for Android and iPhone/iPad now support text formatting such as bold, italics, highlighting, bullets, numbering etc. Earlier versions supported only plain text.
2) Create offline sticky notes
Many users wanted “selective” syncing in the Windows version of Notezilla. Meaning, they didn’t want all the sticky notes to sync with the cloud as some notes may contain sensitive information.
We have added the feature to create “Offline sticky notes” in this version. When you create an offline sticky note, it is never synced with other devices.
3) Snap sticky notes to grid on Windows desktop
This is yet another feature that many customers requested. They wanted to tidy their Windows desktop by having the sticky notes arrange automatically when moving them close to each other. We can also call it “Snap to grid”.
4) Duplicate a sticky note quickly
Now it is very easy to create a copy of a sticky note. This is useful when working with standard templated note content such as checklists etc.
5) Markdown support adds several benefits
Notezilla 9 defaults to 'Markdown' way of formatting text. Eg. When you type **Beautiful world**, it will show as Beautiful world.
Markdown will also allow you to add inline checklists, inline hyperlinks, tables, highlighted text, dark mode compatibility, cross-platform compatibility and lot more. The phone apps also will use markdown to format the text.
You can switch to the standard editor anytime that the previous versions supported.
6) Dark mode
The new version supports dark mode. If you are using the markdown editor then Notezilla will automatically used lighter text color on dark backgrounds.
7) Auto-arrange sticky notes in Notes Browser
Neatly arranged sticky notes will allow you to be more productive. The new version arranges the sticky notes automatically when ever you resize a sticky note or the Notes Browser. This avoids overlapping and cluttered sticky notes.
8) Show sticky notes on desktop by memoboard or tag
Notezilla 9 adds the ability to quickly bring all sticky notes belonging to a memoboard (or tag) to the Windows desktop. You may be grouping various sticky notes by tag or memoboards (folders). With just 2 clicks you can instantly show all those sticky notes on the Windows desktop
9) Multi-select sticky notes and move around to organize/group them
We have added the ability to multi-select desktop sticky notes and move them around so that you can tidy your Windows desktop. You can also multi-select sticky notes inside the Notes Browser. Hold Ctrl key to multi-select.
10) Charming new sticky note colors
The new sticky note colors in Notezilla 9 for Windows are beautiful! The more you will see them, the more you fall in love with them :o). You will see these colors in the phone apps too (Notezilla for Android, iPhone/iPad).
11) Access sticky notes from the new taskbar button
The new version brings quick way to access the desktop sticky notes in Windows. You will see a new Taskbar button when Notezilla is running in the background.
Clicking on this taskbar button will give you instant access to the desktop sticky notes. You can also access the desktop notes using the Alt+Tab keys. Right clicking will let you create a new sticky note from the taskbar’s jump list.
12) Temporarily disable sticky note reminders using 'Do Not Disturb'
You can now temporarily disable the reminder pop up messages using the “Do not disturb” feature. The reminders that you set on sticky notes will not show up for the duration you set. This feature is useful especially when you are in a meeting or presenting something from your PC/laptop.
13) Flicker-free typing and resizing of sticky notes
You will be surprised at the richness and smoothness of the user-interface (UI) in the new version when using pictures, typing text inside a sticky note or auto-arranging sticky notes.
14) Sort lines and checklists
When you have ticked off few checklist items, you can send them to the bottom of the list by sorting the checklist. Or you can individually move a line up or down (even using the keyboard).
15) Insert tables inside a sticky note
Notezilla now allows light-weight tables inside sticky notes using markdown on Windows. You can represent a table as plain text and it automatically renders as a table inside the sticky note. Notezilla phone apps for Android/iPhone/iPad also has support for tables.
16) Inline hyperlinking
The new version supports inline hyperlinking that many customers requested. You don't have to paste long clumsy URL links now inside sticky notes in the new version. Supported in all platforms - Windows, Android, iPhone, iPad.
17) Add hyperlinks pointing to other sticky notes
Yes, this one is interesting. You can link one note to another. You may have some sticky notes with standard content that you wish to refer from another sticky note. With this feature you can add hyperlinks to other sticky notes.
Before setting a hyperlink, go to the sticky note which needs to be linked, right click on the sticky note, go to Properties and set a note id.
18) Improved tagging of sticky notes and searching them by tags
Quickly search for sticky notes using keyword like #tagname. Earlier version required more steps.
Also, setting new tags to a sticky note is lot easier in this version.
19) All matches are highlighted inside found sticky notes
When you search for sticky notes by a keyword, Notezilla now highlights all the matching keywords inside a sticky note. In the earlier version it highlighted only the first match and the user had to press F3 to go to the next match.
20) One-click button arrange sticky notes inside a memoboard
In the new version Notezilla auto-arranges notes when the Notes Browser is resized. Or when a sticky note is resized. This is very convenient compared to the behavior in the previous version.
However, if you disable the 'auto-arrange' setting or if you move sticky notes around, just single clicking on the 'Arrange Notes' button will set all sticky notes in the right place, neatly.
21) One-click button to restore sticky note from the Trash memoboard
Restoring a sticky note back from the Trash memoboard is now one-click away.
22) Supports more than 90 spell-check dictionaries
Notezilla 9 has added support for the most popular Hunspell spell checker engine. You can now select from 90+ dictionaries.
23) Back and forward buttons in Notes Browser to navigate between recent sticky notes
Quickly browse through recently accessed sticky notes using the Back and Forward buttons in the Notes Browser.
24) Directly edit a sticky note from the reminder popup window
Very often when a reminder sticky note pops up, we wish to update some value in the sticky note. Now, you can directly edit the sticky note from the reminder window before dismissing the reminder alarm. Just double click inside the sticky note to edit.
25) Sender's name shown on sticky note's title
This version shows the sender's name directly in the sticky note's title, right aligned. Earlier version showed the name only on hovering the mouse pointer over the toolbar icon.
26) Create new sticky note from within a sticky note
Like Windows Sticky Notes, you can now create a sticky note from within a sticky note right from the note's menu.
27) Create new sticky note from Windows desktop
Directly create new sticky notes by right clicking on the Windows desktop background.

Avoid multiple clicks and create a sticky note directly from what's in the clipboard.
