Reviews

This App has a lot of potential
ERROr- nO fuRtheR DeTAILs

To be honest, I was hoping for an app like Notability when I got this app. It isn’t a thing like it, and notability costs $10 to download. Man the devs has a good app coming in the future but screwed it up. Not critical, just saying that I wish it had a lot more features. :(


The best app

I love it


Ótima alternativa

Ótimo aplicativo que não te bombardeia com propagandas na versão gratuita.


Fantastic!

Great for note taking! Excellent for journal writing!


Not user friendly
TammieR.

The app is not user friendly and hard to take notes and edit


Four star rating
ev. lion

The app works well with printing it has a great audio correction and the different type of paper formats are really helpful with school, but the part when you draw or write with your finger is really annoying because it is hard to write and when you try to move up and down the paper it just draws and doesn't do what I want it to do that's why there are four stars instead of five.


Pile of trash
Lugo3726294738

I wish I could give this piece of garbage app 0 stars. Doesn’t save my notes half the time. Thanks for wasting my time.


Does not work with Pencil only
Jackmac11

Real pain. It sensors finger movement and does not just work with the pencil. May be a setting but cannot find it. Else looks interesting


Love it
Jasmynn71

I never even review anything but I love this app so much I felt obligated to. I’ve been looking for an app that could easily highlight and edit notes and this app does this and more! Thank you!


Impressive!

This is a fantastic app! It has Notes, PDF annotation, and a great word processor. The writing is smooth and there are tons of options to customize. You can record audio and add it to specific places in your notes. You can put notes within notes (and add them to specific places). There are tons of paper templates and beautiful notebook covers to choose from and you can use your own photos as well. There is a continuous scroll option. The scanning feature is amazing and so useful for me! I’ve been driving myself mad trying to find the perfect advanced note-taking app and this is so close to being it. I have a few suggestions, though it’s possible the pro version has some of these that I’m not aware of (can’t find a detailed comparison of features for the + version vs. the pro version). Still debating on whether I want to purchase but I probably will. I would like to see handwriting recognition for searching. And please support hyperlinks (for things like bullet journaling) and this will be perfect! :) I would also like the highlighter to highlight under the text instead of over it.
