One of if not the best pdf editing and note-taking apps I have found on the App Store, after using for about a week I bought the full version so that it can become my main app for school purposes. The brushes are limited but are the ones that I usually use anyway and the folder system works well for me, the only feedback I would like to give the developer and is a personal request from me is to add some tools such as a ruler, protractor and a compass for a start and then start adding a few more over the coming updates, maybe add a few more brushes for variety, implement a save feature for the users’ preferred brush, brush size, brush color and zoom / magnifying tool size so that the experience is a bit more streamlined and satisfactory. Overall great app would recommend and for the developers keep up the good work.
I love it but,

I wish i can review all pages of the opened file easily ( like by sliding right or left, or by touching numbers of pages while scrolling ). It’s important for me to move between pages as quick as possible without doing any extra steps.
Feature suggestion!

The app is great enough, but it would be nice to add this feature. I just I just suggest adding the ability to search with specific text among all the files in the app. That’s gonna save a lot of time instead of single files to search for specific information. please consider to add this in the coming updates and it’ll be great to add the handwriting recognition feature to the search and have a good day.Another feature that I suggest is when backing up to Google Drive I want to select folders instead of tags I feel folders are more neat and easy to organize instead of every time tagging my files. I’m currently only on tags instead of folders because I want to back up my files on Google Drive that’s a priority.
With a handwriting recognizing search tool it would be perfect.. yet its the best.

Thank you, its the best note taking app… but it still needs a search tool that recognizes handwriting as in the direct competitor Goodnotes5… its the tool that makes me using both apps instead of going totally Noteful, and as far as i know its the tool that splits many users’ decision between Noteful and Goodnotes… such an important tool can’t be ignored.I really hope we will see it as soon as possible… with such tool Noteful will be a complete app.
- New: Lock images to prevent accidental movement.
- New: Options to change folder sorting in the document library.
- Changed: Reverted to the system font picker to improve reliability with custom fonts (e.g., missing fonts or incorrect names). While this may feel like a step back in usability, it ensures the most consistent behavior given iOS system constraints.
- Fixed an issue where image flipping did not work properly on images without a mask.
- Fixed an issue from the previous version where text boxes could be clipped while typing with some IMEs (e.g., Japanese and Chinese).
- Fixed an issue where the Hand Tool’s fullscreen mode had an incorrect layout when the main toolbar was positioned on the right.
- Added 0.38 mm pen size.
- Minor localization and UI tweaks.
