Supernote Partner 4+

I rather love my Supernote device and the iOS app is OK. Hopefully they will get around to improving it. Its basic functionality is good — being able to sync with the Supernote device and being able to view your notes on iOS. But there are some functions that just cause the app to spin its wheels and nothing happens.

There is really only one major thing missing for me: navigation in notebooks with lots of pages of material. On the Supernote, this is done well but on the app, you have to swipe through each page manually. This is fine for shorter notebooks, but a number of mine are long.

Right off the bat… viewing my supernote stuff on my iPhone or iPad at any time? Awesome! But ALSO transferring PDFs to supernote through the LAN transfer function is cool :D One negative thing I noticed is when I want to share a file from this app to another… either the apps to choose from don’t pop up at all, or the link to the file it shares doesn’t work. If this could be fixed that would be great! Otherwise I would have to download the file to my phone or iPad first and THEN share. But I’m sure this will be improved and more cool stuff will be added as time goes by - just like the supernote itself , which I love! :D

Unfortunately the UI is very poorly designed. In order to transfer documents back and forth between the app and the tablet itself, there are several unintuitive steps that must be taken. It would be nice to have an auto-sync feature that simply uploads updated documents every so often. It is also impossible to delete files directly in the app, a simple function that you think would be standard in today’s landscape. While the device itself is one of my greatest investments, the rigid and inflexible partner app seems to only add confusion and frustration to the use of an otherwise excellent product.
