#### Components
Joplin note is an open source application for note taking. It is very swift and  notes can be saved to different notebooks for proper arrangement. The application still need to make some adjustment or improvement to make it more fantastic for users, one of such features that is missing on the app is as stated below.

### Proposal
I am suggesting the favorite/star button be added to joplin note so users can enjoy the benefit of this feature which is to identify users favourite notes or article for the sake of accessibility. When users long press any article or note, the star favorite button appears at the top of the screen so users can easily add desired note to the favourite category. Adding your notes to favourite would also help access the note easily when there are numerous notes on the app. It would make the app more exciting when users can distinguish between important and less important notes.

#### Mockups / Examples
The first screen shot shows the feature is not available. To use this feature, users should simply "press hold" any note they wish to star as favourite and then click on the star button as illustrated on the follwing screen shots.

#### Benefits
Favorite shows the rate of priority of the notes saved on the app, it separates the important from the unimportant notes or articles and saves the stress of locating them.  This feature if implemented would add more value to the application thereby attracting a wider user base.
