A great app for taking notes. Transcribing notes written with the Apple Pencil works almost flawlessly, even with my terrible handwriting and it's simple to fix what didn't convert perfectly. I only have 2 issues I wish would be fixed or added. There is no auto-sync system in place. It is minor, but if I want to view notes on my Mac written on my iPad I must first touch the sync on the iPad and then download on the Mac. Every other note app does this without the extra steps. The other thing I wish would be added is a dark mode for PDF. Dark mode for notes is great, the screen goes black and the text is white making it easy to read and write at night. The PDF is still white. Notability is the only app that switches the background to black and the text to white making it easy to read at night. With these two additions this app would easily be 5 stars.
Great App in Comparison to What's Out There
C2GR
If its about comparing, this app gets a 5-star rating because there is nothing else better out there. I've tried multiple options and none gave me the the same easiness for writing.Nonetheless, as a user, I give it a 4-star rating because there are some items that need to improve such as the usage of keyboard (for some reason it jumps sentences some times), the mathematical part lacks adding more math terms (specially computationals), moving objects, etc.There should be a "feedback" option in the app and perhaps have a "comming up" updates to know if there are plans to improve in areas where we've given feedbacks.Overall, great app, amazing pricing... I'd be willing to pay an annual membership for this app, perhaps for the one-time pricing you're unable to invest in improvements as much as its needed.

Great for hiearchical list notes
HisDrewness
I was looking to make the switch from pen and paper to electronic notes for my daily note taking. I'm a software architect and my daily note taking mainly consists of hiearchical lists like ToDo and DoneDid reminders. Nebo excells at lists and bullets. I just write in an indendetd style as I would on paper and Nebo figures out my intentions and converts my hand written lists to beautifly typed and idented lists -- like magic.I love how I can go back and edit and add additional items with eased. Being able to and free form notes to my documents is awesome as well. Prior to Nebo I tried GoodNotes, Noteability, Apple Notes and Microsoft One Note. They all have their strenghts and weaknesses, but for my purposes Nebo was exactly what I needed. One area of improvement would be automatic syncing of notes to iCloud/Dropbox/Google. Right now syncing is a manual process.
Developer Response
We're super happy to hear you're enjoying Nebo – and we're grateful for your support ✨Thanks also for letting us know what exactly you love about the app! The auto-sync is on our roadmap. Mila
One of the Best IPAD ONLY Note Apps
Dons
I find Nebo to be one of the most natural pencil based notes taking apps on the Appstore. I love simple things like scratch to delete and the convert to text function works very well IMHO. There are a couple things that keep it from being GREAT in my world. 1) There isn't a functional MAC App so I can see my notes and even edit and organize further. Competitors do this. 2) It would be awesome if there was built in functionality for FlashCards like RemNote. RemNote is not pencil oriented but it does have this flashcard feature for students. Overall though, just for the iPad pencil note taking part of this.....Nebo rocks.
