Nebo: AI學習筆‪記‬ 4+

My handwriting is terrible, but Nebo manages to figure out what I’m writing most of the time. I’ve written whole papers with this, and it’s held up pretty well so far!

It does struggle, whoever, with certain characters: bracketed numbers — e.g. “(101)” — are repeatedly (and annoyingly) misinterpreted. Also, other forms of punctuation which I use for Markdown can be awkwardly spaced out (e.g. “*hello*” might turn into “* hello *”, and “testing - now” might be rendered as “testing- now”).

The support for bullet points is disappointingly rudimentary. It would be amazing to be able to create complex bullet point outlines, but the app doesn’t support indented bullet points yet.

Finally, it would be a dream to be able to write and export text in Markdown. Hopefully this is in the pipeline!

(Lastly, for real: it would be great if we could paste in blocks of typed text — e.g. a copied quote from another app. It feels a little punitive to be exclusively limited to hand-writing text, even though that’s the primary input method. If we can insert images, it only feels right that we should be able to insert typed text.)

Hello, thanks to your feedback, we released a lot of new exciting features in Nebo 2.6! One of the top three features requested by our users was enhanced handling of *lists and indents*. Now the app detects multi-level lists automatically. You can create bulleted and numbered lists, and the new indentation options work with regular text as well as list items. We hope you'll enjoy it! Stay well, and do let us know your thoughts on Nebo 2.6. Mila

I considered choosing between Notability and Nebo, finally i got Nebo to have a try. I’m surprised the handwriting recognition is so great even my bad handwriting can convert to correct text, that’s a great job.

However, i was not able to writing/ sketch freely anywhere in the note, i guess maybe because of keeping this function works properly. Yes, there’s a sketch tool to set a sketch area and draw something, or even draw some diagrams, but that’s not so intuitive for me, in my opinion. This is one of the features that i think Notability works better.

The next feature i think is missing is the ability to markup something, especially between texts, images and diagrams. That’s a pain if you have something in a note, and you want to point out somewhere in an image and draw an arrow to some texts somewhere else.

One more thing, i’m not sure why can’t i revert the converted text to handwriting without using undo function; or duplicate a note that i may want to keep a handwriting copy. Sometimes i may just want to share something written in text form but want my handwriting keeping.

Feature request(it’s seems greedy but i really want this app be my only app for journaling purpose):

1. Free writing/ drawing note, or at least we can create a free writing/ drawing note without handwriting recognition;
2. Markup function on note freely;
3. Drag and drop image/ pdf from other apps;
4. Hyperlinks;
5. Side-by-side notes

Hi, thanks for your support!
We are happy to announce that Nebo now lets you copy/paste content (etxt and images) from other applications!
Please note that joining our Insider program you can test Beta features. Currently, our Nebo Insiders can test the Draft feature allowing them to take unstructured notes, make sketches on the fly while being able to integrate this content in structured notes later.
If you want to know more about it, you can read this article: http://bit.ly/Nebo-Draft.

I add your vote for other features you are requesting.

Hope you’ll enjoy this new experience!

I put 5 stars (app is amazing) and use this comment to submit a feature request. I use Nebo a lot for reading and annotating books & PDFs. I want to to have a full screen experience without the button “back” and the title of my book, and you also could think how to minimize tools like apple does in their markup for PDFs in books. Thanks!

We're super happy to hear you're enjoying Nebo – and we're grateful for your 5-star support. Thanks also for letting us know how you mostly use Nebo. We listen to all feedback, and your remarks have been noted. Best of luck, Mila
