Not huge? I beg to differ. Searching for icons instead of scrolling will be a big timesaver.

But are we in “Ursula Le Guin True Names” territory? Where you have know the name better than just “weird fish”? :slight_smile:

Is it possible that this release broke “sharing” to Drafts on iOS? I don’t see it in the app list when I hit the share button in other apps any more. I’m on iOS 14.2.
