    Thank you SO much for making an app that works properly with Voice Control. So many word processing apps have numerous bugs or inaccessible elements that make using Voice Control impossible or frustrating. However, there is a strange little bug. My voice control is set to US English, which means that I should be able to dictate brackets [] by saying “Open bracket/close bracket” or “Left bracket/right bracket.” But when I try to dictate brackets in uFocus, those commands produce parentheses () instead. The Voice Control command list notes that calling parentheses brackets is exclusive to UK, Australian, and Indian English, which I am not using. In all of my other apps, I can dictate brackets [] by saying “Open bracket” etc. The parentheses substitution only happens in uFocus.

    I can work around this; I mentioned it mostly because it’s so unusual. I haven’t seen this before. But seriously, thank you for this app. Whatever you’re doing that makes it work with Voice Control, keep doing it that way, please.

      I was unable to reproduce the issue: with English (US) selected in Voice Control, saying “open/close bracket” inserted brackets, while with English (UK) it inserted parentheses. I’m also not familiar enough with accessibility settings to tell if any of those have an influence. I’m afraid the only thing I can suggest at this point is to ask the Apple support or write at discussions.apple.com, although I wouldn’t be surprised if the answer you get from both is that it’s the app’s fault.

    Thank you for that great app.

    I have a feature request: A collapse button for every paragraph headline within the editor.

    In the outline section it is already possible to click on the little arrow to toggle between showing just the main headline or also its subheadlines.

    The same functionality would help me within the editor itself to hide or show some paragraphs. The toggle-button could be the “#” itself.

    I use the app a lot for lists. Sometimes I want to see all subcontent of the first healine and all subcontent of the last headline at once. This functionality would help hiding unneccesary content in between. It gives me the opportunity to show all important stuff at a glance without the need to scroll.

      I see how collapsing a section could be useful, but unfortunately I couldn’t find a straightforward way to do it. I’ll look some more, but at the moment I don’t have high hopes that I’ll be able to implement it without investing very much time, which I never seem to have enough of.

    As of 11/7/25, the Sidebar in the iPhone uFocus app won’t open. The Sidebar icon does not respond when you tap it.

    Therefore there is no way of creating a new document, or opening other documents on the iPhone.

    I updated the iPhone to the latest operating system and it still does not work.

    The desktop app works fine.

    Please advise. Thank you.

      I just published a new update that should fix that issue.

    Hi! Great, clean app. Only one question/request 😉 Any chance of allowing importing from another app, in particular, Bear? Thanks.

      I think the best way to import documents from another app would be to look for an export feature in that app that creates one or multiple text files that you could then move into your uFocus library.

    I really like the application uFocus, it is very simple. The most annoying thing is the effort to save files until I discovered an app: https://antinote.io/ which does not require a file name. The use process is very silky, but its other experience is far less than that of uFocus. I hope uFocus can learn from its concept and make saving files history.

      According to their website: “Antinote is designed for quick temporary thoughts”. I designed uFocus for writing permanent texts and to give users control over where their documents are stored, so filenames are a requirement. If you don’t care about the names of the files, you could link a folder as a library and then quickly create new documents with a default filename from the Library menu or with the keyboard shortcut.
