ScribleNest
Handwritten notes & PDF markup
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
ScribleNest is one notebook for everything you write: handwritten notes, typed pages and PDFs, kept in a single library on your iPhone and iPad.
WRITE THE WAY YOU LIKE
• Handwrite with Apple Pencil or your finger on lined, grid, dotted or blank paper
• Fountain, ballpoint and brush pens, a pencil and a highlighter, in many colours and widths down to a hairline
• Erasers that take a whole stroke or just part of one
• Pinch to zoom up to 1000%, with fine lines when you're zoomed in, and palm rejection
• Add text boxes, sticky notes, shapes and tape, then pick any of them up to move, edit or delete
• Type pages with headings, bullets and checklists
• Sketch on whiteboards
• Scan paper pages or add photos, then write straight on them
MARK UP PDFS
• Import a PDF from Files, Mail or iCloud Drive and write on it
• Highlight, circle, underline and add notes in the margin
• Share the PDF with your handwriting drawn in
AI THAT READS YOUR NOTES
• ScribleNest reads your handwriting so you can search it
• Summaries turn a notebook into key points and action items
• Translate a page, a scan or a PDF into more than 40 languages, and save the translation as a page
FIND AND SHARE
• Notebooks, folders, pages inside pages, tags, favourites and a 30-day trash
• Search typed notes, the text inside PDFs and handwriting ScribleNest has read
• Share a notebook with your team, or send a view-only link to anyone
WORKS WITH NO SIGNAL
• Start a note, add pages and keep writing offline
• Everything syncs when you're back online, and anything still waiting is clearly marked
• Offline copies on your device are encrypted
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Your notes stay private until you share them
• Lock the app with Face ID or Touch ID
• No ads and no tracking
• Delete your account from inside the app at any time
ScribleNest is free, with unlimited notebooks. Questions or ideas? Visit scriblenest.com/support.
• Turn pages like a book: swipe a page sideways for the next or previous one. Swipe past the last page to add a new one. Tap the page name at the top to jump to any page.
• Lasso: draw a loop round writing, drawings, pictures or shapes to move, resize, turn, cut, copy or paste them, even onto another page or notebook.
• Rotate pictures, shapes, text boxes and notes with the handle on top, or tap Rotate.
• Paste photos or text copied from other apps.
• Move or delete several notebooks at once in Library (tap Select).
• Add the next page with + at the top; share any page or notebook as a PDF by AirDrop, even offline.
• Pictures on typed pages, Clear page, and Report a problem / Share an idea under More.
Fixes: new notes and pages open straight away offline; flipping pages no longer reloads; typed pages with pictures can be edited again; undo after clearing a page works properly.
