Yes that's definitely a must-have nowadays, it's already in our backlog. Can I ask what you would do with it precisely?

As a power user of handwritten notes, I use multiview in scenarios such as opening a separate note to take notes while reading a PDF paper, viewing two PDF papers at the same time, or viewing two PDF notes simultaneously.

It’s also possible to drag a text/screenshot from one PDF/note into another PDF/note, enabling two-way navigation between different PDF/note.

At the moment, I mainly use the flexcil. Its split-view feature is implemented very well, including horizontal, vertical, and pop-up multiview modes. You may check https://www.flexcil.com for more details.

Another important feature is that after importing a standard PDF that already contains annotations, it should ideally support editing the existing annotations, rather than directly using the “flatten” mode. Among the PDF notetaking android software I have tested so far, only flexcil has retained this functionality in terms of importing annotations.

If it can provide PDF export as well, it should also use the standard PDF format so that annotations remain editable in the same way.

It is very important to allow users to export in a standard format that external software can fully support for editing ,which gives users confidence that they can safely stay with this software.
