Provide a customisable template library
This would allow me to organise all of my own visios' using meta data (leaving the visios in each of the specific customer folders). Then I would have virtual folder for high level architecture, component diagrams, network diagrams etc.. I would like further views to allow me to slice and dice by industry etc..

Enable opening Visio drawings in Visio Viewer from Outlook for Android/iOS
When using Outlook managed with Intune MAM, deeplinks will not work as they remove these types of URLs due to security concerns. As a result, we can't open Visio drawings attached in an Outlook email. The Outlook team from Microsoft support has confirmed that this is by design and that this type of hyoerlinks within the app might be disabled in the near future. Would like to see this feature enabled.

Make an android version
I don't want to have to get my surface pro out just to make a diagram, an android app would be so much more useful.

Mail the Visio (to a printer)
I can now see the Visio, but to be able to use it, I need to either print or send it. My printers at work support email-printing, not AirPrint. So, a PDF output to an email would be very valuable.

Make it possible to annotate drawings - like the 'Draw' function in OneNote/Word/Excel/PowerPoint etc.
Viewing drawings is great but the ability to annotate drawings within the app on iPad would be beneficial so that working ideas can be explored and then transcribed once back on Visio desktop client.
Functionality should be exactly like the 'Draw' ribbon menu from all the other iPad Office apps.

How to get out of search mode?
The search button opens a search bar, but there's no obvious way to get back from searching without doing a search. I stumbled on it - click on the document again, but that's not intuitive. There should be a cancel option somewhere in the search bar.

Feedback button hard to find
It is really unclear from the release notes that the feedback button is the second one from the left when a Visio file is being viewed. Why on earth wouldn't this be available from the main page (documents list) as well? Frankly, some of the icons are hard to identify. The right-hand one is easy (full screen) but the second-from the right apparently zooms back to full page view, which is unclear (and should be disabled when already in that mode, right?).

Add support for Google Drive in Places
So far it looks like only local, One Drive and One Drive Pro are supported for opening Visio files. As a heavy user of other online services as well, adding support for Google Drive, DropBox, etc. would be really useful. I suspect you can integrate these from the application's own sharing APIs (i.e.: if Google Drive is installed, you get a hook for it).

Visio is crashing complex pages on my 9" iPad Pro
I have a 9" iPad Pro with the latest update from 9/12 of Visio. I can open files from local (uploaded via iTunes) and OneDrive, but several of them are crashing when loading. These are not large or complex documents. If you have a direct messaging method, I can share the files with you for testing.
