In the desktop version of Joplin, I’ve noticed there’s a note history function that lets me restore a note to any previous state from its editing history at any time. But why isn’t this feature available on iOS?

Last I saw it's not implemented because it's considered a non essential feature for mobile, as the reasoning is you can recover any note data from history when you next use a computer, if you're on the go.

It's not ideal, but it's just considered low priority to implement

For reference, I'm linking to the note revision viewer logic on desktop. A mobile implementation would probably:

  • Use some of the same revision-related APIs.
  • Use the mobile NoteBodyViewer to render and display the content of the current revision.
  • Be added to the list of screens that can be navigated to in the mobile app.
