Commented on pCloud sync for filespCloud sync is in version 1.3.7, on the App Store now, with Smolpad Pro.

A pipe table reads as a grid as you write, Tab moves between cells, Return adds a row, the Table button on the formatting bar starts one, and a table pasted from a chat lines up on arrival.

Marking this one done; the other points stand as answered above.Commented on Not syncing1.3.6 is on the App Store now, for Mac, iPhone and iPad, and it carries the fix from this thread: a Mac joins iCloud as soon as iCloud Drive is turned on, and asks again on its own if iCloud is slow to answer at launch. Settings › Storage also says what iCloud is doing now, so a…Commented on Build Version1.3.6 is on the App Store now, for Mac, iPhone and iPad, with the build number next to the version in About. Thanks again for the suggestion.Commented on Formatting of Table and Extended MarkdownThank you, and you were not missing anything: Smolpad had no table support until now. It is in the tree for 1.3.7. A pipe table reads as a grid in the editor, with the header bold and the divider row dimmed, and bold, links and code inside the cells still work. Tab moves to the n…Commented on Proposals of management of imagesPoint 4 is built: a note whose picture file has been moved or deleted now shows a small frame with the picture icon and the file's name instead of a blank line, and clicking it still reveals the link so you know which file to put back. It is in the current TestFlight build, and i…Commented on Not syncingThe fix is on its way: Smolpad 1.3.6 went to App Review tonight, and it checks for iCloud Drive again each time it comes forward, so a Mac that misses the first check joins on its own. Settings > Storage also gains a line that says what iCloud is doing. If you would like it befor…Upvoted Formatting of Table and Extended Markdown Commented on Not syncingAwesome, thanks for reaching out. Glad we got it working 🎉Commented on Not syncingGlad it is working. It should have from the start, and the reason it did not is on our side: Smolpad checks whether iCloud Drive is available to it once, when it opens. If the answer is no at that moment, because that switch was off or because iCloud Drive was still getting ready…Commented on Not syncingThank you, that path is the answer: your Mac copy is keeping notes in its own folder and has never been let into iCloud Drive. The list you checked is for a different kind of iCloud sync, which is why Smolpad is not on it on any Mac. The one that matters is on iCloud Drive's own…Commented on Not syncingOne correction to what I wrote above: the grey is not about the window. Your Mac's accent color is set to Graphite in System Settings > Appearance, and Smolpad draws that card in the accent color, so on your Mac the selected card is grey where mine is blue. The meaning is the sam…Commented on Not syncingThanks for the screenshots, they help. The grey cloud on the Mac is not a dead button: that card is the selected one, and the Mac draws the selection in grey whenever the Settings window is not the active window, which it is not while you take a screenshot. So iCloud is chosen on…Commented on Not syncingThanks for checking that, it explains it. Your Mac copy is keeping the notes on the Mac itself, which is why it is missing from iCloud’s app list and why the phone and iPad only see each other. Smolpad on the Mac joins iCloud only when iCloud Drive is turned on for the same Apple…Commented on Not syncing@plaidski what version of Smolpad?
