I purchased the pro version if the app, all things are great. One of the most interesting features is th iCloud syncing so I can read, take note, make highlights from my iPad, Mac, or even iPhone !.Specially when making a lot of windows in my MacBook Pro, the application works great in Mac as a native Mac application. But it need a boost up user experience to make it even a Mac taking notes app.One more thing I think it should be added to the application: is writing across multiple pages with Apple Pencil. Right now, when I try to draw a continuous line between pages, it gets cut off. It would be great if the line could flow naturally from one page to the next without interruption. Also when sharing multiple files to application it can’t import more then one, but since I can drag and drop them very easily I can wait. Also it will be better to add more panel that includes all favorite pens, so I can get that panel like native Notes application panel. This will make choosing pens much easier.Thank you a lot.
Being thankful
Extremely_grateful
I have tried so many note- taking apps before this and to be honest ,I am not the type to ever purchase any app under any circumstance but , this one was well deserved. I love this app over all it provides you with almost all its features without a purchase of the pro version and well when u do purchase u get features like cropping pictures by freehand and unlimited notebooks. I swear even though having 10 notebooks at first with unlimited pages was crazy good. Thank you very much noteful keep going . Although I do have one request can you perhaps give more themes and freedom of page color for me to chose since I love to have for example purple and you seem to have limited colors only available , as for the themes having more lively colors other than black and white would make studying more efficient and well set you in a good mood. Alright yet again everything is perfect thank you again ❤️
Movable Audio Widget inside the page

Hi Noteful Team,I really love your app, it’s amazing! However, I have a feature request that would make the app absolutely perfect.Currently, when recording audio, the player is fixed at the top of the screen. I would highly request adding an "Audio Widget/Bar" that can be inserted directly inside the note page. I want to be able to drag and move the audio bar freely, and place it anywhere I want (above or below specific paragraphs or headings).This would be a game-changer for many users who want to organize their recordings visually inside their notes.Thank you for your amazing work!
Amazing app!

Perfect for my students needs, especially the night mode. It saves me so much headache, literally. My current sole problem is with night mode, and that’s when some text is highlighted from the same file using regular text highlighters, night mode makes it hard to read those because the exposure of the highlighter isn’t inverted, which makes it appear as a very bright color with white text in it, making it very hard to read. I have to take a screenshot of the text in light mode and place it on top of the original text to make sure I can see it in both light and dark modes.
- New: Lock images to prevent accidental movement.
- New: Options to change folder sorting in the document library.
- Changed: Reverted to the system font picker to improve reliability with custom fonts (e.g., missing fonts or incorrect names). While this may feel like a step back in usability, it ensures the most consistent behavior given iOS system constraints.
- Fixed an issue where image flipping did not work properly on images without a mask.
- Fixed an issue from the previous version where text boxes could be clipped while typing with some IMEs (e.g., Japanese and Chinese).
- Fixed an issue where the Hand Tool’s fullscreen mode had an incorrect layout when the main toolbar was positioned on the right.
- Added 0.38 mm pen size.
- Minor localization and UI tweaks.
