Best Note App

I am loving this note app. I’ve tried all the majors in search of the perfect one for me. Notability and Goodnotes have rested on their laurels, Noteshelf is getting there, while Zoomnotes has everything but is complicated and has a clunky UI.This app has exactly what I want. Here are the standout features for me.1. Even though it’s feature rich, the UI is simple and easy to use. Navigating, changing settings, and just doing anything in general is so easy and quick. Everything is where you expect it to be.2. Tags and nested tags as a way to organize notebooks has become a feature I didn’t know I needed. It’s so much better than folder structure. Finding info on a topic across all of your notebooks or individual notebook pages is amazing. They’ve since added folders as well.3. Layers are awesome. Zoomnotes and others have implemented layers, but they’re just so simple to use with Noteful. There are things the app is missing like handwriting to text conversion or a writing zoom tool (Zoomnotes has the best one if your interested in adding one), but I don’t use those so it doesn’t matter for me. All the other things it does so well trumps the missing features. At 4.99 it’s a bargain.

Enjoying it!

I left Notability to begin using Noteful. It has worked out great for me. If you are a person who likes to use the zoom box, you should try this app. There are a lot of customizable options and tools that make using the zoom box very efficient. I also love filing system & the use of layers in the notes. This app would be a five star app for me if it also had a recording feature. I don’t necessarily need that right now, but I know it’s something that I would find useful. Other than that this app is very well designed, and I have been happy using it. even if notability fixes some of the features that they messed up/removed recently, I probably won’t go back unless I really need the recording aspect.

Supreme digital planning and note taking

After the disappointment from GN6, I made the change to Noteful. I love all the extras even if I don’t use them as much such as the ruler, UI customization, tags. As a digital planner, I really like the style customization option and the washi tapes are cute. Adding stickers is not as easy as with GN. If you use the add image option it doesn’t allow you to add a picture straight from files, it needs to be on your camera roll which I don’t like. I would love to have an option such as GN elements where I could save my hand-drawn stickers saved as 1 element that I can easily copy. In Noteful is tricky because only the lasso will do it and you have to Make sure to get everything in the selection. The Duplicate option is a game changer and I hope it never goes away. Hopefully they move the delete option a bit forward on the list and make it red or bold. The nesting bookmarks for outlining your digital notes it’s amazing. I use this to create a digital notebook for my lab notes since lab notes can get messy quick this keeps everything nicely organized. Even though I have some pet peeves, these don’t negate the fact that this is a well built, well thought out app and that’s why it gives 5 stars. Also, the developers update every other week and it does seem like they do read suggestions from users.

Noteful: the new king of writing apps

After 2 other well known writing apps cost themselves customer loyalty (one because of a terrible update, the other because of another tired bait-and-switch tactic of charging a subscription for an app already paid for), I went on a search for an alternative. One where the developers respect their customers and listens to feedback. One with a respectful privacy policy (which definitely was NOT the case with one of the aforementioned popular writing apps). And one that refrains from this greedy trend of charging subscription fees instead of a one-time reasonable price.In Noteful, I think I’ve found such an app.One-time price? Check. Clear and concise privacy policy? Check. Feature rich? Check, check, and checkmate. This app has everything I need. It’s layout is beautiful, it’s UI is intuitive, and the developer seems committed to the user base.One more “note” about privacy: when a developer has the talent to make an app this good, yet still has a privacy policy that makes it very clear that data mining is not part of his business structure? THAT is the kind of developer who we should all be supporting. In fact, I would encourage this developer to consider putting in a tip jar, because users like me who are fed up with apps cavalierly violating that basic principle will gladly contribute regularly to someone doing things the right way. Thank you, Noteful.

Overall great

Overall I really enjoy the app. Only thing missing for me personally as of right now is the ability to create links. I truly need those links so that I can go back and forth within my notebook with ease for my studying and the information that I need. It makes it harder when I don’t have the links, which affects my time management and productivity. If that can be added would be much appreciated. Ultimately, I do love this app. And I hope the the links will be added soon, so that I can use just one app, instead of multiple. Thanks for all that you do! This app is wonderful

Almost the best.. except for the search option and txt recognition 😭

I enjoyed using this app a lot. In fact it is my go to note taking app at this moment. But I really miss some features from other options such as the handwriting recognition and universal search. It will be a lot more helpful if I could convert my hand written notes into texts. Another important feature that I find really useful is the universal search option which can even recognize your hand written texts and show up on the search menu. As a student it is very helpful to be able to find out what I have written on which page from the search option itself. This will be my humble request to the developers that they should add this search feature in future updates. I hope it will be the best of the best note taking app after these minor tweaks.❤️

This is the note-taking app you are looking for!

I was devoted to Goodnotes and Notability since 2016 and would not have seen any reason to change until this year. If you are a serious user then you will understand what I'm alluding to (and I don't like to bad-mouth the apps that used to serve me well). There are now many more competing apps for note-taking and presentation than there were 7 years ago. I tried out about half a dozen of them after reading reviews and watching many tutorials. I decided to switch to Noteful, which does everything I used my other note-taking apps for, but also does more, and does it better. The transition was extremely smooth. I fell in love with the app. The one-time purchase of the very reasonably-priced pro version was a very easy decision. I am telling all my friends and students about Noteful. As a bonus, I am even sleeping better at night.

New user, so far I am impressed

I can tell the app is really well thought out, excited to see how it grows and what new features can be added - I’ve been searching for an app that I can use to consolidate all of my note taking and journaling, which is right now spread across so many apps that have some of the features I want but not all of the ones I need.This app so far has been covering about 90% of my use case needs, and I’m ready to see how I can implement it every single day for work and life. I already feel so much more productive

The potential to be better than GoodNotes and Notability Combined

As a medical student, this app has surpassed my expectations. Although it is missing some key features seen in other note taking apps, the features included already are refined and intuitive. I would technically give this app 4 stars, but the extra star is for the potential I see happening within the next couple of months for two reasons. The company is very receptive on ideas and additions you would like to see in the app and, judging by the version history, they have been adding features and improvements monthly (at times weekly).Although it hasn’t replaced my other main note taking apps yet, I paid for the app to support the developer and I could see it becoming my primary note taking app in the coming months!Things I would like see in the app include- ability to search words in documents from the main menu- handwriting search function- auto backup to other cloud drive services- dark mode- import personal templates - ability to change pressure sensitivity of apple pen (not as essential as the other features mentioned)

Smooth But Lacks Image Import

I thought i would give this a try because it was recommended by PaperlessX, and paid for the upgrade because it was only $5. Even if i don't find I use it long term it is a small price to support development. I feel it offers a very nice writing experience with a clean interface, and layers is an interesting feature. However, it seems to be missing the ability to open image files from the Apple File manager, as i can with Notability and Goodnotes. This is important because I often export slides from powerpoint as png images, or get images of the internet, and annotate them during class when I’m teaching. I realize i can convert them to pdf, but that is an extra step and my other apps handle that for me.
