This update includes critical bug fixes for Pro subscriptions and accounts.

Thanks for choosing LessonNote to observe and document your classroom lessons! In this update we've added new features, improved the look and feel of the app, and fixed a lot of bugs. NEW FEATURES You'll find new ways to export lessons including by batch exporting all lesson photos*, printing and saving lessons as PDFs*, and exporting lesson archives to your Files (or other file storage) app. Just tap the share button in the lesson review toolbar. Download lessons from your Pro account after signing in. LessonNote Pro syncing is going away in the near future, so if you have lessons which you have not yet downloaded or exported and that are not backed up elsewhere, we strongly encourage you to take this opportunity to download and backup your lessons. Set school names for lessons. When you create a new lesson, specify the name of the school so it's easier to organize and search for your lessons at a particular school later. Alternatively, change or add a school name from lesson review by tapping on the name of your lesson. *Requires a Pro subscription (available as an in-app purchase) IMPROVED DESIGN LessonNote is subtly and slightly refreshed to take advantage of newer versions of iPadOS and new iPad models. Your lessons have more room to breathe, stand out more clearly with cleaner colors, and have improved animations. We've also taken time to improve the behavior and reliability of the lesson timeline, filtering, transition management, and more. For those of you already upgraded to iPadOS 26, you'll enjoy a refreshed design that takes advantage of Liquid Glass. BUG FIXES This update includes a lot of bug fixes. There are too many to list here, but know that we're working on fixing even more to make LessonNote a smoother, faster, and more reliable tool. If you enjoy using LessonNote or have found it useful in your research or classroom observations please consider leaving a review on the App Store. It really helps! And, if you really love LessonNote, consider sharing it with your colleagues or reaching out to Lesson Study Alliance to learn how you can get involved.

Fixed: Notes can now be deleted without a Pro subscription. Fixed: "Contact us" in settings creates a correctly-addressed email message. Previously fixed: A bug in the creation of a LessonNote Pro account.

This update fixes an intermittent crash and may resolve issues that some customers were having when trying to subscribe to LessonNote Pro. And, in case you missed it, LessonNote 4 is a big update. Here's all that's new: This is a major rewrite, 2 years in the making, with many performance and user-interface improvements! It is, however, no longer completely free. To help us afford to continue developing LessonNote, a subscription is required for recording more than 5 lessons per 12-month period (lessons with fewer than 15 notes don't count). The 5-lesson limit should be adequate for most teachers involved in Lesson Study, but a subscription allows unlimited use and includes a LessonNote Pro account, which in turn allows you to back up lessons, share seating charts, export lessons as PDFs, export photos, and search for notes across multiple lessons. Read more at https://LSAlliance.org/LNPro . What's new: • The handwriting engine has been completely redone; handwriting capture is beautiful and undo is instantaneous. • Move directly between note-taking and notes review, permitting quick editing of recent notes. • Enhanced filtering of your notes: show notes that are flagged, that have a seating chart, a photo, a typed annotation, or that relate to selected entities from the seating chart. • Includes a new photo manipulation tool for moving/resizing photos. • Support for Apple Pencil® when drawing, using undo / redo, switching note-taking tools and colors. • Other UI tweaks and refinements.

* Bugfixes

We introduce a new statistics screen that shows how many notes were taken about each student, their total duration, and how time was allocated throughout the lesson on whole group instruction, individual work, or group work. Bug fixes: * Modality (whole class, group, etc.) will always reflect the most recent transition. * A lesson can have only one start event. A second tap will shift the start event to the current time. User interface tweaks: - Lesson start/end events have their own color.
