Multiple Profiles or "Notebooks" or "Workspaces"

Create different profiles if you want to split private and work for example completely from each other. This could be solved by adding an extra hierarchy to the folder system separating the folders from each other, like `/Private/<Notes|Calendar|Filters>` and `/Work/<Notes|Calendar|Filters>`

If I can add the ability to choose in the iPhone focus filter setting for the app.

Gadwood Excellent suggestion to make one vs the other visible. This sounds better than my initial thought process of having separate folders in Finder. I think it's better if you pick which folders to simply hide as you describe it.

I recently had an issue where noteplan syncing accidentally got turned on for my work computer, and merged all of my personal notes from home with my work notesto appear then. I'm mostly concerned with intellectual property disputes; if my personal project notes start appearing on my work machine, I don't want it to then appear as if I was using company equipment to work on personal projects as it may give them a claim to my work. This is where not only a separation of notebooks would be beneficial, but the ability to selectively sync those notes between machines as well.

Mark Nagengast: Thanks for sharing this point, never thought about this but that's a valid reasoning as well.

This is a feature I am really interested in as well. It would be great to have tags and autocomplete be unique to a notebook to avoid mixing topics.

For me this would make NotePlan a lot more valuable.

Is this still possible because it would be absolutely incredible!

I'd love to be able to switch between workspaces in NotePlan. Something like the Obsidian plugin Workspaces Plus - https://github.com/nothingislost/obsidian-workspaces-plus

I was exactly thinking of this! Even if it's technically OK to mix work and private tasks, seeing private todos while you're at work and unable to achieve them can be sort of distractive. If you want to push the feature further, maybe you could have a "single profile view" in which you would read/write stuff for each profile you have, and a "multiple profile view", in which all the data of all your profiles would be merged (for reading only, because obviously if you write something, we can't define the profile it'd belong to). This way: when you want to focus on work or at the opposite you don't be bothered by work, you switch between "single profile views". But when you want to have an exhaustive view of your day/week, you switch to the "multiple profile view". Of course, as this is a feature probably useless for a majority of people, it should be hidden by default.
