Good, but missing some features from Noteshelf 2

I’ve been a dedicated Noteshelf user since v1 and I love it.

In general, this version is an overall improvement from Noteshelf 2, and it can incredibly perform searches on my handwriting! But (for me) the following are missing:
1) A mechanism to feedback issues to the developer (hence why I’m using this review)
2) The time, date and power level are hidden when using the app. Not very good when I need to keep an eye on the time for the next meeting! Please bring this back ASAP!
3) Switching between notebooks causes the notebook you switch to to reset the view to Page 1. This is a right pain as I switch notebooks frequently and some are 200+ pages long (so lots of additional and unnecessary scrolling to get back to where I was)
4) New page is a switch and a tap. Old version was just a swipe. Maybe there is a toggle for this? (I haven’t found it if there is)
5) The different colours on the left bar are very handy, but there needs to be 5 visible at all times, rather than just 3 (I use Black, Red, Green, Blue and Purple as ways of highlighting text)
6) The double tap to undo doesn’t work for me. Not a big issue, but would speed up my work if I could figure out why.

If the above can be resolved, the rating will be a 5 Star!

Thank you, and keep up the great work!

AI integration is awesome! Handwriting needs paid upgrade.

I slated v3 in a previous review as the handwriting recognition didn’t work. I didn’t realise you have to upgrade to paid before this feature works properly. The 20%-off swung it for me and, yes, handwriting recognition seems to work perfectly.

Note to developers / marketing, make this a little clearer, please! Either disable it completely on the free version, or have a working trial version. The current one on the free tier just feels broken, and therefore loses confidence.

Otherwise (paid version) absolutely superb.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your positive review! We apologize for any confusion regarding the handwriting recognition feature. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration for future updates. We're glad to hear that you find the paid version of Noteshelf 3 superb. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Absolutely Love this! The best!

Ever since I bought my first iPad (the first iPad) I have wanted a nice clean, clutter free not taking app. I've bought them all (GoodNotes, Penultimate, Noteshelf, Notability and all the rest - including whiteboards etc) and many have got overpriced, adopted subscription models etc but none have improved in terms of being a nice clean, clutter-free notebook...

But NoteShelf has ticked all boxed. Version 2 was already very nice but version 3 is absolutelt the best of the bunch.

I love the read only view when I just want to flick through notes and the completely hidden toolbar and, when writing notes, the toolbar is minimal. If I could add one thing it would be a couple more quick access colours but that really is nit picking.

Developer Response ,

We're delighted to receive your positive feedback! We appreciate your suggestion for additional quick-access colors. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we're continuously working to enhance your notetaking experience.
