Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Trivial way of linking to another note irrespective of client - Android app being my most used situation, but should work anywhere, even offline without needing to look up online information such as URLs or IDs.

Describe the solution you'd like
Adding text which matches the title of another note to a note creates the link. no additional meta data or markup is actually added to the note, the link is created on the fly in the app (or web page)

Change a notes title, links to it break. Shoganai, user problem. No need to try to handle this.

This would work in addition to other, explicit, link types. perhaps add a toggle to enable this feature so people who don't like it won't have spurious links throughout their notes.

Additional context
For me the killer feature of Tomdroid was always the auto linking of notes. simply adding text to a note which matched the title of another note was sufficient to create a link to that note.

unfortunately Tomdroid appears to be dead and is no longer working on my new phone.

The primary thing for me is NOT having to manually write complicated link syntax on my phone, which is where i mostly use this.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Try to resurrect the Tomdroid project, but i am not an Android developer.
