Used to be brilliant - it’s not anymore!!!

It used to be an absolutely amazing app. Now, since they changed the ‘add web-clips’ feature, it’s not anymore. I wish Notability would stop fixing things that ain’t broken. The new web clips system is a disastrous set back!!! It’s useless!!! For that reason, I can’t give more than one star, as I really used the feature a lot and can’t use it at all now. Bring the old version of adding web clips back and I’ll give you 5 stars. This may be a bit harsh but without this feature, Notability is just one of many other apps out there. It doesn’t stand out anymore. Sorry.

Changed for the worse

I used to love notability. I’m a third year nursing student and for the past 2 years I used notability for all my notes I even paid for the premium but it was brilliant even with out that. But this year there is a limit on how long I can spend writting notes. I was in the middle of doing my notes, when it kicked me out of the app and when I went back in it wouldn’t let me edit anything or create s new page or even to write one more word. I was only on notability for possibly an hour tonight and 2 hours last week. So I do not understand how my limit is used up when that’s all I’ve used of it for the past 3 months. I do not think im going to continue to use this app. As a student I used notability to write my notes, study, planning my months, weeks, and to do lists. However I would spend many hours a week at minimum 10 hours on this app. If it is going to make me pay just to write my notes I will not continue to use it. I understand having premium for other reasons and bonuses but not for simply writting a note in plain black on a blank sleet of paper
