Amazing app

Notability is amazing and worth all the money I’ve spent on it. As a University student I love the flexibility that this app has with lots of easy to use controls and most importantly, lots of backup options with iCloud syncing. I also paid extra for the search and handwriting recognition which is amazing as it allows me to search through text books in seconds for either my own handwriting or text in the book. I would really like to see them add a ruler and protractor tool as there have been times when drawing diagrams or doing assignments when I have needed to be more accurate but other than that I can’t complain about anything. If you need a note taking app, this is the one to get!

(almost) Perfect.

Fantastic app for a student with an Apple Pencil. Phenomenal support for a variety of document types (.pdfs, PowerPoint) to import directly as annotatable pages.

Handwriting to math conversion is mind-boggling good, even with chicken scratchings. Some documentation for the syntax could be nice (if you’re that sort of nerd, you probably value precision).

Snap-to parabolas, arcs, squares and polygons make graphing a dream.

First-generation iPad Pros seem to struggle with losing touch focus after using an Apple Pencil for some time. This is supposedly a software issue relating to some of the first gen Pros, so who knows if it’ll ever be fixed.

Could do with some more mouse support - at this price, why not.

A little disappointed with the STEM sticker pack. There’s no 4 way axes, which seems a glaring omission considering the other inclusions in the pack. Bizarrely, the axes tick-marks don’t seem to line up with ANY of the provided square paper, which makes me wonder why it was included at all, much less charged for. I’d rather some more useful formulae stickers than pretty planets.

These are minor complaints, and ones specific to my own experience. If you have an iPad and an Apple Pencil, this is an essential purchase.
