Feature Request: Customization of DEVONthink page

Feature Request: Customization of DEVONthink page…

No need for tags, and trash is only referenced once in a while… let users hide and rearrange the home page…more than just the options of Smart Groups. If one does not use tags, don’t forge the tags under global. Maybe the databases are the most important so let us move that to the top. This page would also be a good spot for favorites, right?

Tags aren’t forced onto the Home screen.
They can be shown in the database via DEVONthink To Go’s Settings > Databases & Groups > Unify Tags. disable this if you don’t want them there.

Also, there are no required global smart groups. Tap the Edit link and enable/disable as you wish, noting the Favorites are already there.

that helped thin it down a bit - thank you.

(maybe favorites needs a heart instead of a star looks like the asterisk used for all documents, and, ratings.)

Apple used a star to denote favorites in Files.app. We followed suit.

Sure, this wasn’t meant to initiate defense of decisions. Don’t be afraid to step out when needed from Apple (and that is coming for a massive apple fan since I was a kid and that is all I use.) When you have two icons looking so similar, it is a problem for anyone including apple, ada etc. Not recalling an asterisk as a primary icon…and in the grand scheme of things this is just a small petty icon. Accommodating batch import of photos to a single note, basics like that could certainly higher priority.

No defense of actions here. Just reporting the why it is the way it is.
