Perfect substitute for Goodnotes

I started using this app ever since Goodnotes started changing the subscription style. Not only does it obtain all the desired features that can be found in Goodnotes, it includes certain functions which Goodnotes does not possess.
However, obvious enough, there's is always space for improvement. I'd like to suggest on adding subtags. Due to my way of taking notes, I classify a lot of my papers using tags. As I have multiple subjects, it makes it hard for me to search through the tags for each subject. It would be extremely helpful if I can categorise each tag further.

Other than that, I highly recommend Noteful as a notetaking app.

Good app, but can do some improvements

This app is very good, the writing feel and the use ability is very well done too . A thing that can add to make it even better is the ability to search keywords in notes made so that there is no need to flip through many many notes. Thank you.

Favourite Notetaking App So Far

I’ve been trying out a lot of Note taking apps especially since I’d need it for studying, and so far Noteful has been the best by far from having all the features I need without much issues or bugs. All while coming up to a decent and reasonable price compared to some apps that are way too overpriced or have gone too far with too many unnecessary features for a note taking app.

Only issue so far I’ve experienced consistently is the palm rejection not working every now and then, i.e. when I take my hand off the screen and then put it back down to write, the screen will jitter thinking I’m using my finger and do things like undo, move the screen, or zoom in/out.
