Notes Writer Pro 2024 Positive Reviews

Best combo of PDF annotations and note takingI have been trying to find a notes App that worked better with PDF annotation (in addition to being good at note taking), but one HUGE drawback of other note taking Apps (i.e. Goodnotes, Flexcil, Nebo, Notability) is that every file has to be imported to be used, and therefore becomes a duplicate, non-sycronized file (not a big deal if you just use it for notes only). Well, NotesWriter fixes that! All files can be saved natively in the iPad Files folder and useable by any PDF program, not just Noteswriter. To me that makes NotesWriter a near-perfect combination of Goodnotes and PDF Viewer. Considering other PDF Apps charge a subscription, this feels like a steal. You even get a lasso/clipping tool, the ability to scan pages in, and a ton of page templates (all of which most free PDF Apps don’t have). PDF Expert and PDF viewer are the most similar, and have a bit smoother look, but this is slightly better than those if you want note taking abilities. Note to Developers: The layout/user interface could still be improved: if the toolbar was customizable (like PDF Expert), if the view layout was more full screen (neither Reader or Presentation mode are as good as PDF Viewer’s layout), and if the handwriting had a simple zoom feature and was recognizable (like Goodnotes). Great job!.JaggnerVersion: 15.7.6

What a team “NotesWriter Pro and its Developers “I’m so very impressed! I suffer from insomnia so at 5:00am Arizona time I downloaded the new update. I was actually excited because I see great things in the horizon from this team. Well, I was sorta hit in the gut when I fired up the application and it immediately shut down. I took action and sent a text to Zendesk, not because of my disappointment but because I could tell by their program description they were very excited also about the release. To my surprise dialogue started immediately ( don’t know where they’re located but maybe they’re early birds) I sent a description of the problem and photos. I sent them so much I thought they would block me, lol. Well this went on for most of the early morning and by now I figured they had to be on break, sleep or eating but was I surprise when I found the new update proudly sitting in the Apple Store this afternoon. NO! I don’t normally write reviews or anything else this long but they truly deserve all the credit I can bolster, I’m sticking with this team! Thank you so much for standing behind your words!.IskaratVersion: 14.0.1

Fantastic app!!I have been taking a training course that references PDF documents with 300 to 400 pages each. While the instructor makes a presentation, I need to quickly highlight text and images on the corresponding (password protected) document, and annotate it with commentaries and diagrams. At times I need to take a picture of a complex diagram that the instructor draws on the board and insert it into the PDF. Notes Writer allows me to do all that, and presents me with a multitude of editing options that I use to adjust and revise my notes after class. I reported to the Studio 5 Team a couple of small usability issues and suggested some enhancements to the app. I was surprised by the immediate same-day courteous reply addressing my issues, but more so when two weeks later two of my suggested enhancements had been added! When I initially searched (about two months ago) the internet looking for best-in-class apps of this type, Notes Writer did not come up on any of the lists. I find this very strange because the competing apps that are listed appear to be inferior. Go figure....PlacenteroVersion: 10.7.1

Amazing app with continuous horizontal scrollingThis is the only note taking app on the App Store that has continuous horizontal scrolling. Neither GoodNotes nor notability nor any other app I know of has continuous horizontal scrolling — they can only show one page at a time in horizontal scrolling mode. Continuous horizontal scrolling alone makes NotesWriter the best note taking app for me, as it makes productivity so much greater on large devices like the 12.9 pro, where the ability to work on many pages at once is feasible. My only wish is that stroke erasing is added in a future update, then this app would be perfect..Teacher dad.Version: 15.2.5

It’s the perfect app but...NotesWriter has the potential to surpass GoodNotes and Notability in my eyes but it’s just missing a couple of things. I’m constantly drawing diagrams for my engineering courses and it’s a hassle having to switch to the shapes tool. Instead, it would be great if I could just draw the shape and hold the pencil to create the shape. Also adding a feature where you can zoom in on a specific area and still have the whole page available to look at. Furthermore, it would be nice if I could format my notes like I would in LaTeX and still be able to use my pencil when taking notes. I really love the ability to include equations into my notes. Plus having the ability to snap things would be great. For instance, if I’m using grid paper I would like to draw line along the grid so that it could snap onto it. I find it annoying that when using the scissors tool it’ll include other pieces of my writing that I did not intend to. Usually when I write my notes it’ll glitch out and cut out small pieces of the letters I wrote down. Like it’ll cut the bottom part of ‘t’ but when I switch to the eraser the bottom half reappears and disappears when I switch back to the pencil. Maybe include the option to delete an entire line stroke. Including the option to switch back to the pencil after erasing would be nice. By including these features and removing those bugs it will definitely make NotesWriter the most efficient note taking app on any device!.XHellboyVersion: 13.4.7

It was good and i liked it a lot.But now it gets slow when i opened or wrote something. The pen feature was been changed. After using easer, the pen has changed automatically the pinned color on the top which was i did not use at the time. And also i hope there are more option to change the pinned color that i made myself. I do not like some pinned color a lot but as I mentioned before it has changed automatically pinned color I did not use after easer. So I have to go back to the color i used at that moment. During the class it is very annoying me a lot. And the other one is please add note feature while i was taking note from downloaded document. When i need to add note, I have to edit and every time. UPDATE. Issued what I had were fixed but still some stuff do not like.....Kylie0722Version: 10.7.9

RewritingI used to love this app to the point that i shared it to all my friends. I used it to create a stationary & at first it was great, but then they removed the resizing of the vectors i added & i was left with crop only. Then my most recent problem, which is super annoying is that when I have a full page written & I want to go back & fix or delete or add a word the process to do so is so frustrating. Im giving a 3 star because I still like it but needs a lot of work. I dont get it it used to work before but with the updates it has gotten worse in my opinion, & I have the paid version..LcrystalmVersion: 15.1.5

Love this app!Bought this as something to use with my Apple Pencil. And it works fantastically. My favorite part is that I can use different paper looks in the background. As a designer, this is priceless. I love being able to use graph and field note paper for accurate design. Plus the lined paper background make sure the page is neat and mimics real world writing. Now, as for drawing, it is good for getting ideas down. It lacks opacity control and canvas rotation. In my opinion these are not deal breakers. I have other apps for drawing. Overall, this is worth my money. In fact, I use it everyday..KtwinbVersion: 13.3.3

Useful App but could use some improvementsHello, I have been using the notes writer app for several months now. I really enjoy it but I feel like there are some improvements that you could add to the app to make its use much more effective. 1. Split screen should be able to toggle between top/bottom to right/left 2. There should be an ink setting that responds to pen pressure 3. Add the ability for the app to read handwritten text so you can search for a handwritten word in a document 4. The colors that are available in the top right of the screen should be able to be customizable 5. For the feature that allows you to “add page after page __” there should be an option for that added page to be from a template 6. An added page’s format/template/features should be editable after adding it to a document 7. There is an app called Nebo and it has some excellent “shortcuts” for handwritten notes and it would be great to have those on your app as well Thank you for creating such a useful app and I hope you will take some if not all of my comments into consideration..MegumeowVersion: 13.4.3

Best note taking app for the price!I was struggling on deciding between Goodnotes and Notability. When I came across this app and its free version. I tried out the free version and was ready to give the pro app a try. For the price, this app can not be beat. It includes the best features you would find in either (goodnotes/notability) and then some. I highly recommend this app for note taking, making lists, etc. A fraction of the cost, with all the features? The support for this app is also incredible. The team is constantly listening to its users and making adjustments. Thank you Notes Writer Team!.EddjaureVersion: 10.8.6

Lots of TemplatesI was testing note apps and was very pleased with most features. It has a larger amount of template/paper choices and the ability to use your own photos to customize the covers - and best of all - it’s not a subscription. I love that it’s like buying a physical notebook instead of having to pay monthly. I hate subscriptions. Some things I’d like to see in future updates: A Ruler like the Blankbook app, a double tap undo, and a smoothing control for the tools. If it had these things, it would crush the other apps..Misstex89Version: 14.3.5

HopeI am very impressed with your application and also admire the existing additions and diversity, but there are some things that I hope will be present in the next update, for example you create shapes using pen tools to work quickly, and also deal with the specific text without affecting the rest of the text inside the text box, and I can also add It is placed under the line and through it on any text on the page. I apologize if there is a mistake in some speech because my language is weak, thanks.Ali_@_QadiVersion: 14.1.7

Love this app!This app is literally like having several notebooks in my hand. And if I need another one I just create it. I can even make the cover from my own photos which is huge and incredibly easy. Another plus is adding to my books documents I already have or download. It is an answer to everything. It finally allows me to use my iPad the way it should be used and just a great gaming device. Another plus is how quick the company was to answer a question I had, even on a Sunday. Customer service has made a come back here..KarobinsonVersion: 10.6.5

Great for crochetThis app is easy to learn and visually appealing. I could see so many uses for it, but I mainly use it for crocheting. I no longer need to print out patterns or carry around a pattern book and pencil. I can use the PDF from electronic patterns or scan the pages of a book. I can also keep notes directly on the patterns, and I’ve organized everything in folders. I appreciate having all the features I needed in the free version, but I am happy to pay the subscription in exchange for more storage space..31@;n3Version: 15.7.6

Turn off button shapes & increase contrast for cursor.You must turn off “Button Shapes” & “Increase Contrast” so you can see the cursor on your iPhone screen. NotesWriter tech support found this solution, to the disappearing cursor, very quickly for me! That is the only problem with this very powerful and nimble app for document creation. This app reproduces cursor control found on computer keyboards, greatly increasing the accuracy and speed of document creation on an iPhone. I now use this and 2 other apps to do all my documents from the ease of my recliner. If you write, buy this app..ScubnubbicVersion: 13.1.6

Extremely useful!I can honestly say this app is helping me go paperless! It’s extremely helpful for pdf docs to annotate, organize, and store. I went from the free version to the pro.. worth every dime! There’s so many more features.. my rebuttal to the comments about paying for upgrades; I haven’t seen it, but if I have to.. What’s the problem! These programmers work hard to put out a quality product not only that they are very responsive when you contact them with a problem. Don’t sleep on this one it’s a great App. Keep you the good work y’all!.Slimgoody51Version: 10.8.5

Great, multifaceted and functional appI had been using the free version of this app for a few months. Decided that this app was well worth it for the features I was using it for. I mainly use this app for note taking and annotating PDFs. I am able to draw and create figures using the drawing tool that are very easy to use and super helpful. I’ve yet to experience any problems regarding lag or losing files. I hold that never happens to me... Until further notice, I am very satisfied with this app and would recommend it to other students like myself..D12 for takeoffVersion: 14.2.9

The BEST PDF readerIf you’re working in the academia like me, reading papers must be an indispensable part of your daily life. Many papers/books in PDF form contain *HYPERLINKS* to other parts of the document. This app beats other rival PDF reader apps with a VERY USEFUL FEATURE that most other apps lack: A *BACKWARD/FORWARD BUTTON* to allow you to jump back and forth between the pages, which saves tons of time scrolling. TL;DR: This app allows you to go back and forth through hyperlinks, a feature that unfortunately is absent in most others..LinisacVersion: 5.1.1

Amazing! Best of all combined!I am shocked that this app does not get the attention it deserves. The attention to detail is amazing. The quality, layout and options are far superior to Notability and GoodNotes. It’s as if they listened to all the problems the competitors have and improved upon them. I was going back and forth between Notability and GoodNotes.....until I found this gem. I hope this company is in it for the long haul because they are the only note taking app that gets it. Thank you so much. I appreciate all the hard work..GhostCavVersion: 13.1.4

Very good! Could use some small improvementI like it so far. 5 stars, with some suggestion/questions. Please let us organize document order in folders. I know we can order them by title or date, but I would like it to go whatever order I choose. Need more instruction on project. The instruction videos talked nothing about it. Also I noticed I could move a document into a project, but didn’t find any way to move it out to iPad folder. Basically the instruction are of old version and need to be updated. Need to customize default setting of scan. I would like to have colors on by default. Sometimes I set a cover but after sync it went missing. And app crashes randomly with selecting and modifying stuff or with syncing. That’s all I have now. Will add anything I found. It is a good app in general..BeninaxVersion: 10.7.9

It is really good HOWEVER ...It’s a bit laggy using Apple Pencil, second i wish it saves the last option template you are using. Third the color of pens are far up ahead on the right, I wish we can customize toolbar. Also, the shapes tool I was hoping it is straight forward not two times click. Last the docx. Files can not be written or “taking notes” by Apple Pencil only texts option which I don’t like. However, 4 stars for the AMAZING handwriting this apps gives I wish they fix the laggy issues & i’ll give them 5 stars Indeed..It’s CreamiVersion: 14.2.7

Great app, great customer supportThis is one of my favorite apps to use on my iPad Pro for business. During meetings it’s great for taking notes. Very easy to use and fast. You can record your notes if you prefer or, easily insert a drawing into your notes. This app also works great with PDF’s and typing your notes. I have contacted customer service multiple times with questions and they always respond quickly..CddtrVersion: 13.5.5

Not good anymoreUsed this for classes last couple of years and first two years it was great but now it literally crashes when I try to use certain features and erases all the work from the past 15 minutes or so. So a whole page of notes will be gone and the automatic backup will only have the work from the 15 minutes prior to it crashing. So disappointed because retaking notes is annoying. Fix it because I am pretty sure it is the extra features causing this!!!🤬.Mia9013Version: 15.7.8

Still LearningI am in nursing school and felt that this would be great to keep up with the tremendous amount of paperwork that we use. The app is good but too time consuming and frustrating when attempting to scan documents. Having the templates are good but I should be able to scan into already created projects instead of the general pages. I’m still learning to use the app more fluently. Will leave another review as the semester goes on..RoniKa2015Version: 10.9.0

Great! Just a little laggyThis app is great. I use it for school and it’s totally worth paying for the pro app. It has tons of more storage, it’s easy to organize all my notes and I can export select notes to send to my teachers. The only problem that I’ve had is that I’ve noticed the more files I have, the app starts to lag a bit. I have like 5 folders full of different pages of notes so the lag is understandable but it is something that could be worked on. Other than that, this app is great!.Lexi 🩷🩵🤍Version: 13.6.3

Useful ToolOnce you become familiar with the functions this app has to offer it is a very useful tool. What is important is that after you have made your selection of any online article then convert it into a PDF, whatever notations, highlights, data entry on forms, signatures, et cetera, will not disappear when sent via email or transferred to another app. There is a manual on how to use this app that is quite helpful. SLW.CoffybearVersion: 15.3.5

Great app with one issueThis is the best app I used for PDF, it really work much better than the others. Using the pen is very smooth, and it open multiple files at the same time. There is one issue I wish they can solve it, when opening a pdf as full screen, the app leave a little silver bar at the top and it does not make the page actually be full screen. I know it can be done since I have seen it in less capable apps..TheapplovrrVersion: 15.1.4

Can’t create new projectsRegardless of how many times I tap the “+” button and then “New Project,” nothing happens. I discovered I can still duplicate existing projects as a temporary solution. The problem likely isn’t related to Dropbox syncing. Is there something I’m missing? Developers, if you could please investigate this issue I’d be quite happy UPDATE The developers resolved this issue. Thank you!.JerryObergVersion: 16.3.1

Good App with odd bugs here and thereI’ve been using this app as a replacement for the default Notes app and it’s been working out for the most part. The latest update did introduce a rather annoying issue where undo/redo is completely broken on Scribble/SCB documents when using the Apple Pencil toolbox. There’s some other minor issues, but that one has to be the most distracting..Kevin SanoVersion: 14.1.7

ProblemI am trying to do mock up of web site changes. When I enter a picture and then try to move it around the picture freezes and it takes several tries to get selected and move around. This is also occurring with the text box. It is frustrating. If this cannot be fixed then I want my money back please..CoyoteinvalidoVersion: 13.3.8

This app is my best friendI love this app. I used to keep 2 or 3 notebooks with me at all times, now I just need my iPad, my pencil, and my Notes Writer app. Not a fan of one of the new features though. The undo button is bad UX. Instead of being able to undo multiple steps, now we must push the icon and then push undo again for each step we wish to undo. Too many steps..JustJeffCrosbyVersion: 16.0.5

Great app for notes, mild issuesLove using for annotations and notes, but current updates has substantial lag when writing notes. Additionally, I wish I could use cut/clip when doing split screen, and it is a big hassle for my notes that I cannot. Overall a very good app.HohohahahaVersion: 13.3.0

Love the app, but please bring an option to disable auto scroll up if tapped to top of the screen.I am using the app full-time but hate to scroll back 300 pages when I tap the top of screen when putting my apple pencil. I know I can go to a specific numbered page but having this as an option is far more convenient..Ege-guresVersion: 17.0.9

Great but some issues. Not the same template for added page and no hand written searchIt is a good note writing app but there is no way to search youe written notes, which is available in other note taking apps. And there is no way to enable autobackup to onedrive. *URGENT ** The other issue is that if I add a page to my notes, it doesn't have the same template as the previous pages and you can't apply the same template to this new page! There is some format fo this new page but they are different with previous pages. So add the same template to new pages from the first place!This should be fixed. **UTGENT 2** In the split view, there is no way to swap the documents. I wanted to write in the above one but I couldn't swap the documents. Further, I wanted to have vertical split, not horizental split. Add swapping document views and vertical documents view in Split view. Thanks..IncredibleUserVersion: 14.1.6

The full app costs $21.99cadOkay I’m back! This time I’m using NotesWriter to annotate sheet music (or tabs) and I’d like to request utilizing the white pencil or marker to erase certain parts for screenshots or images in the scribble page. It can also be used on black paper but yellow on the notepad paper. I’m having trouble sizing my texts from copy+paste..Out of 5 starsVersion: 16.3.8

Wonderful!This is wonderful for working online, especially now, with the lockdown, I really advise to use it..I've tryed thisVersion: 15.3.1

Well…It has plenty of features but also has a habit of slowing down and even crashing, for its price there are better options. Update: The lag issue has been addressed, but the app is also rather clumsy with adding pages. Sometimes it takes a few seconds, other times it’ll take 5 minutes before crashing. Also you’re unable to move several pages at once..LollylaffylarryVersion: 15.2.8

Great App - Just Need One ThingThis is a great app for teaching and writing notes over PDFs. I use colours a lot to facilitate the teaching, and then I like to move what I’ve written to different locations on my document. When the colour changes, however, I have to move each individual colour separately, they’re not grouped together. I’d like an option to be able to group my annotations together to modify as needed. Thank you!.Aleya.123Version: 13.6.3

Scissor and highlighterI’m giving it 5stars because I really like it because it makes me feel that I am really writing on the paper but the two thing that it make me annoyed is the the scissor that which cannot be do it by individual like when I am trying to scissor them to fixed my writing( just a word) but it give it all sentence so can you fixed that...and also the highlighter which when i highlight my word it not going to straight rite a way..BOOTRUSHVersion: 14.0.4

Good app but with some issuesThis app is a great tool over all and it’s easy to use, however it lags occasionally. Also accidentally moving a folder to itself somehow makes it disappear, is there a way to recover the lost items??.Lmwu1128Version: 13.6.4

Great note-taking appUPDATE: version 13.1.7 introduces substantial lag when erasing and sometimes writing. I too considered notability, but after the ‘last position’ save function had been fixed for good, I am not going with other apps..User17262Version: 13.1.7

A Worthy Notability ContenderVery impressed by the level of customization that this app has. It is also one of the very few note taking app that allows two documents open side-by-side, so that you can annotate a PDF and take notes at the same time. Also love the reading view of PDFs that mimics the turning of pages like a physical book. Would very much love to have this app be available as a choice to ‘open in’ when other apps allow you to share items. Notability does have this ability, which gives it an edge over Notes Writer Pro. If the developer can add this feature, then it will be leading the pack!.KidsndogVersion: 11.0.2

Great AppI really considered buy Notability but after using this App there was no turning back. There’s lots of competition in this field but this application brings simplicity and functionality right where you want it. Highly recommend this App for note taking on templates, PDF’s or blank paper..Mivie-ManVersion: 10.9.9

Notes Writer Pro 2024 Negative Reviews

Very DisappointedI have been a customer since you began with NotesWriter. Since then I have updated to every new version that has come out. When you started with NotesWriter it was without a doubt the best app of it’s type available. But now and for some time there have been problems with saving a file, with moving a file, and with even moving from one version of the notes apps to another. It has been frustrating to say the least how you started with the very best product available and each time you’ve added or upgraded, the app has suffered a degrading of abilities and become less reliable. I have put up with this and worked as hard as I can to overcome but it is past time for me to let you know that by continuing to make this more and more capable of different things in different abilities you have diminished the services of what you started with. In other words perhaps too much of a good thing reduces what you already had by cramming too much into it. I truly hope there is a way for you to return to the quality you had and the reliability you had with the first. I have faithfully paid you each time for the upgrade only to find that it was not an upgrade but a downgrade. I would be satisfied if I could just have the very first product that I bought which did everything that I, and I am sure most of your users were satisfied with, but you seem to have made that unavailable. What a shame. It was perfect for wordprocessing and writing sermons and manuscripts..Exousia1Version: 11.0.2

Poor customer serviceI have the old Notes Writer on my old IPad Pro. I purchased a new IPad Pro and the old app transferred when I set it up, but then it wouldn’t open on my new Ipad. It shows it is there but just blips open and closed. So I was dumb enough to pay for the Notes Writer Pro thinking this would fix everything. I upgraded on my old Ipad to the pro from within the old Notes Writer thinking the files would just switch over. No such luck. I have written several times for help & after a week, they might get back to me and give me instructions that get me no where. I have begged for help and the things they tell me to do don’t go to the screens they say it does. I have even reloaded my new Ipad in hopes that would work but it doesn’t. I would really like to get my money back on the Notes Writer Pro since it is obviously useless to me and no one wants to help. If they would just call or give me a number to call so I could tell them what shows up on my screen where they are saying something else should be showing up so we can figure out the problem. I don’t recommend upgrading. I am going to have to go to a different program and just copy and paste all my documents since you can’t get help with this app. I have been using it for years and never had a problem before..Elizabethm870Version: 13.4.8

Good usage, but DELETES SOME NOTES??I’ve been using this for about 2-3 months now, initially loved it because of the accessibility and the ease of using it. It auto-saves everything after you exit the page, you can open powerpoints and PDF and write over it, and I just enjoyed using it over all. However, for some reason, my notes from MANY documents were deleted and missing? I have no idea how this happened. I tried backing up the files because there were a lot of them in the trash which, i thought, maybe those were the deleted files—wrong. They were all just blank pages of the documents names that weren’t deleted. I tried to update the app, since maybe that’s why it’s acting funky, closing the app and reopening—none of which worked. Now, I’ve lost a LOT of my notes that were IMPORTANT and am anxious about using this again for anymore notes! I will be unsubscribing this because I pay for this app and since there hasn’t been any solution to my problem, even checked online, I won’t be using this anymore for anything crucial. Disappointed..Mary 9476Version: 13.6.4

Broken AppIt looks like I will have to stop using the app I paid for three versions ago. The last huge update has broken the app on my iPad. I was LITERALLY importing a document when it crashed. It now force closes two seconds after I open it. I have contacted the developers several times, and their latest answer (after I installed two more updates) was to use it for a few days and see how it does. HOW DO I DO THAT WHEN IT DOESN'T OPEN? Luckily, I had linked it to my iCloud, so many of my documents are saved, but it didn't back up everything it was supposed to, so some things have been lost. I also can't open up the documents I made in the app in any other app, so those are gone, too. I have given up, and am moving to Goodnotes 6. I am very disappointed, because it was a good app before they decided to break it, even though it did have its glitches. Update: the app is updated to the most recent iteration, and has been the entire time. It still closes immediately upon opening..Munchkin4125Version: 17.2.7

So disappointingI have used this app for years and I have a serious love hate relationship with it. But I am at the point where it has failed me so many times when creating important documents that I don’t think the organization aspect (which beats all other apps IMO) is worth sticking with this app anymore. I have reached out to their customer support more than three times and have not heard back. I’m so disheartened by this. The app doesn’t have a save feature to save your work as you progress and the backup feature that is setup doesn’t consistently update with the work that has been completed. I just lost two hours worth of writing because the app crashed. Not having a save feature is a joke. Update- this now happened two nights in a row despite additional safety precautions being taken (flattening, saving as pdf and then writing more). This app fails with consistent use. Once finals are over I will be seeking a different application..TeaforaghostVersion: 15.1.3

Super Glitchy. It’s always freezing!This app has been great and I’ve been relying on it for all my note taking for my premed courses. However, after the last couple updates the app has become increasingly glitch prone. It freezes on me regularly and forces me to close it and then reopen it without being able to save my work so everything after the last save is lost. Its super annoying and incredibly time consuming to have to re-write those notes all over again! Please fix this issue. I love this app but if this continues I’m going to have to find a more reliable note taking app UPDATE: 3/3/21 This app is STILL super glitch prone, probably more now than before smh. I know its not my iPad because I have PLENTY of space... Notability is great and extremely relatable I have never had one issue with it, but it doesn't have all the features NotesWriter Pro does... Guys, people love this app, please fix this issue in your next update!.CheomaVersion: 14.2.9

Note writer seems tremendous, but, it has some serious issues with just the simple stuff.I’ve just lost a days worth of work because the auto back up is a fail. It repeatedly failed to save updated work. It goes white, completely blank and when it refreshes all your new additions are gone! There should be a visual save button instead so we know we have a current copy. The migrating documents also failed. It would close when I got to the page where I select destination. The free version is even worse. If you have used the max files allowed it will block you from saving but triggers a pop-up to buy the latest version instead. It refuses to save or migrate any files to the new app even after deleting files in the old app! Stupidly unintuitive. Upsetting when you trust it to hold onto your documents and then loses the latest version..AztcqnVersion: 14.4.0

Very BuggyAm dissatisfied. Buggy on iPad. When choosing to insert text, you have choices in the toolbar for Underline, Cross out, etc. It doesn’t work. And you cannot even BOLD text here. You have to actually do a regular text box for that. If I choose lined paper and want to insert text, in order to have text editing you MUST choose a text box option. It then inserts a solid white block with your text…this is put OVER your lined paper. ?? Also, I started some text and it was at 18pt. I changed to 20pts and it went to 48 pts!! I cannot get it to go to 20. Even if you try +1 increments, it jumps to 48pts. And when editing text, even if you have BLACK color chosen, it changes it to GREY?? Inserting photos is a crap shoot. When trying to resize, it squeezes the image, not resize. Leave the program, come back in and the photo is a different size! For the expensive cost, this app is poor. Not good..CaitnahVersion: 14.4.0

NOT made to be used with digital pencils!!I just bought this worthless app for $7.99 on the belief that because it CLAIMS that it was designed for “pencil, touch, mouse & keyboard.” However, when I installed it, neither my digital pencil would work nor could I write with the touch of my finger on the screen. This app is a WORTHLESS PIECE OF JUNK and the developers LIED about the fact that it would work with TOUCH and PENCIL!! I WANT A REFUND and to see that this so-called “APP” is taken off the Apple Store!! I would give this “app” a 0 star if that was possible!! Update: Just got notified that I had a “developer response” to my previous review. However, when I clicked on the notification, there was NO “developer response” listed. So not only have they LIED about what the app could do, but they LIED about responding to my previous review and I HAVE YET to receive a refund for the money I wasted on this WORTHLESS APP!!.Armychick45Version: 14.1.0

Very bad experienceIa first i was in love with your application and i even stopped using all of other annotation apps until the problems started like lagging and refreshing when new changes are made even deleting my annotations once i get out of the app not to mention the page number lagging when quickly moving between pages (a thing that a simplest annotation app can easily and smoothly work with) and what really annoyed me that recently I can’t record voices more than 2-9 seconds and i am a medical student so you can imagine how wasting time is to me and also imagine how much time will require me to re-organize every lecture in another app after deleting yours! Hope the next time i try this app to be far better from this.M_ExtraVersion: 16.4.1

Was my fav note taking app, but…..This was my favorite note taking app and even paid for pro version, however the amount of bugs make it unusable at this point. The worst its done is delete pages of notes, but the thing it has started doing daily is changing my font to a random font o free text which is how I type my notes. It will change all my font to this random font and then everything will become misaligned and I have to sit there for hours fixing it. This is unacceptable for a pro product that I am paying for, especially when there are plenty of free note taking apps out there that work just fine..AriesMixie29Version: 16.3.2

Deleted my notes after purchasing proI created some free notes in the app. As soon as I paid for pro my notes were removed. How can I trust the app to keep my notes safe? Will my notes eventually be deleted? I love I can have notebooks, it when my indie gets deleted, that’s a problem. I’m planning a very long awaited pregnancy that’s extremely high risk and I need to share info with my mom, aunt, husband, mother in law, and my healthcare team. Devs: Look into why info deletes when someone signs up for pro. Luckily, only a generic birth plan was created. I couldn’t imagine using my detailed birth plan and it getting deleted. I’ll give this app a week to see what it does before I report it to Apple and request a refund..Bookstanista.comVersion: 16.2.4

Corrupted my files, stick with pen and paperVery disappointed in the developers of this app for giving me the false confidence that I could store extremely important notes on here and not lose them. I spent hundreds of dollars on a GRE course and saved all of the notes that I took during that course on this app. Now they’re corrupted and I can neither retrieve them nor restore them. My GRE is in a week. Your help desk was utterly useless when it comes to resolving this issue, which is surprising given that I’m certainly not the only person that has experienced this. For those of you reading this, don’t trust this software. It’s obviously not where it needs to be in terms of reliability. Stick with pen and paper..Elsp9882Version: 15.0.2

Laggy and slowI have 10.5 iPad Pro and I tried the trial version of this app to see if I would like and it did get it’s job done. Due to free trial limitations, I purchased the app and trying to support an app with a low total number of reviews. It was a mistake. As more tabs are opend, and heavier the pdf files become, this app slowed down significantly. I click the eraser and it will literally take 0.5 full seconds to change to eraser. Also, sometimes one page becomes blur and it will only come back to normal if I click other tab and click back. Another issue was not erasing stuff and it will erase like full 30 seconds later. I switched to Notability and it is a heaven. It feels like I was using an iPhone 4 and switched to iPhone X. I highly recommend people to avoid and just get one of the most popular note taking apps. There is a reason why people chose those apps and loved for a long time. Sorry developers, you guys worked hard and I wanted to support smaller sized developers, but you have to at least provide quality products. Very respectfully,.LeonelParkVersion: 13.1.5

Upgrade didn’t transfer documentsFirst I upgraded from an older free version to a newer one. I had to manually move my documents but luckily I didn’t have that many. Then I had too many and had to upgrade to pro. Again, all my documents didn’t transfer. It doesn’t just upgrade the app you’re actually using, it downloads a new version. But when I opened the new version, none of my documents were there, no matter if they were located on the iPad or in the cloud. This is a major problem that wasted a lot of my time, and considering the price of the pro version, should not have been an issue..J1549Version: 10.8.7

Once Good, Unfortunately Terrible nowI used to use this app for half a year but after the latest set of updates, there’s been this weird glitch where if I take my Apple Pencil near my already hand-written notes, it white-outs the writing. If I’m drawing multiple pictures near each other, it will start to erase the picture drawn beforehand. I made sure all settings were correct and no overwrite option was present. The eraser wasn’t selected or anything. I’m unfortunately switching to Notability now because of these untimely defects. I have another semester to go and I can’t have malfunctions..Monsieur_SunVersion: 10.9.98

Just bought and struggling to useI purchased this app as I was using the free version and I really liked it. I was looking for something to use as a notebook from my PT school notes and writing with my Apple Pencil. The app has been working perfectly all day, but as soon as it switched to night version and I had moved to use a different app things went downhill. I went back to the app and realized that all the handwritten text I had created in the color black is completely switched to white text and I can’t get it back and idk why. I just spent hours studying and writing my notes and now it was all for nothing. What is going on and how do I fix it?.DramagabbiVersion: 13.5.5

Change in writing utensilI have used this app for a 9 months now and I have loved it until the new update. I thought the update was great until I found out that all of the pencil/pen/highlighter settings have been replaced with the apple versions. It writes completely different and some of the settings don’t allow for you to change the color very easily. It’s been too simplified and I hate it. It’s so frustrating to use and not at all what I want in this app. I use this every day and now I’m considering finding a new way to take notes so that I can have a better feel for writing rather than a light whispy touch that the apple version portrays..MaaaaaddddogVersion: 13.1.1

Bogus!I am writing this negative review after giving these folks ample time and chances to fix the issue with Notes Writer Pro. I have lost important briefing notes among valuable information on SEVERAL occasions. I have reached out to their crappy customer service reporting the issue. All that they said was to install the update from the App Store. I did that and explained to them via a video recording how the text is getting erased/lost. Seems like that got them cornered and in a bind and they stopped responding. DO NOT BUY THIS STUPID APP. You will regret. I am reporting them to Apple and am also raising a dispute with my credit card company. STAY AWAY from this crappy app, folks..BGA80Version: 14.1.5

InstabilitéDepuis la dernière mise à jour L’application est devenue vraiment instable elle se ferme sans cesse Y a t’il qqc à faire Merci.Le Jack paiemVersion: 17.0.1

I do not recommend the app!I bought the pro version of the app to batch export my notes and highlights on pdf. but in a 500 page pdf, this application wants me to copy the notes one by one. However, on the sales page of the pro version, it was written that there is an export. Also, if you want to delete highlights and notes, you need to delete them one by one. Moreover, it is necessary to click the delete button twice at a time. I am using Ipad pro with M1 processor... I do not recommend the app!.Yeni umutVersion: 16.2.7

Lost all my workI spent two hours writing solutions to problems for my students. This app overwrote the file with an earlier version. All my work was lost. I downloaded all backups and could not find the last version.._unsuVersion: 16.0.5

DO NOT BUY !!!THIS APP FROZE after 30 pages of writing- i loved the feel of the app so much i was using it to write my book—- BUT NOT IT’S ALL GONE AND I’M DEVASTATED ! It lost my writing, my drawings, everything it just crashed and refuses to show me my work ever again- I have come to warn other users to not get this app. I hope no one else loses their hard work like I had. :( do NOT TRUST. Take screen shots of your work before you close out . But more importantly- take your business somewhere else..ScarlettWhimVersion: 15.4.2

Not very goodThe app is constantly corrupting files I’ve been having to rewrite notes very often. Even the backup files are corrupted..Velto678Version: 14.3.5

Waste of moneyMy files do not import. I’ve updated the app, restarted my device and it will not upload my documents. So disappointed..Alc1982%Version: 14.3.4

Don’t UpgradeI was trying the free version and decided to upgrade using the link inside the app. I would advise against this as I now have to applications on my screen and cannot seem to transfer files from the free version to the paid version. Perhaps there needs to be more guidance about how to transfer the files especially as the link is in the app. Disappointing as I’ve just spent 20 bucks and have to go back to an old app but more reliable..KatherineTruemanVersion: 14.2.9

Major issuesEvery time I write notes the app closes randomly super often and it is very annoying because I have to re open it and find the page I was writing on. Also it doesn’t let me undo changes anymore for some reason so if I accidentally delete something I have to restart. When I’m writing fast there is so much delay to the letters I’m writing and then the app decides to glitch out and close. I spent around $10 on this thinking it would work well but rather it is super glitchy and unreliable..Isabeller0815Version: 14.2.1

GlitchyIt glitches sometimes and lags. Kind of a pain when I’m trying to take class notes..Stacey1096Version: 14.0.2

Functionality not thereSpent 20 minutes trying to figure out howTo change folder cover watched YouTube video on how to do this The app in the video isn’t the one that I have or the one I thought I bought looking for a refund.PesssedVersion: 14.0.2

ReviewThe app is really cool but when I’m trying to play voice notes that I’ve taken in the slides, sometimes the audios I take don’t play. I contacted the customer care no one responded. Please fix..SalmarrhVersion: 13.3.2

HIGHLY DISAPPOINTING— CNTRL + B BOLD button Not Working. — Randomly RESETS the Font to COPIN or whatever that font is. — Does not AUTOMATICALLY Move your Typing to the LEFT after inserting Image. —Cannot CROP images taken by the Camera — DELETES YOUR ENTIRE NOTEBOOK AND LEAVES A “(NULL)” TEXT. To Everyone of you giving this 5 star or 4 Star. WHAT in THe HECK is WRONG with ALL OF YOU? BLOODY HELL..MrploxyVersion: 13.1.7

BEWARE App replaces text notes with “(null)”For the past 3 days I have written the same note and my iPhone eventually saves it as “(null)”. Interestingly their other note app “Scrivo Pro” does not have this issue but lacks any sharing function because it depends on this app for that. Syncing is not possible to disable once activated and both apps have functions that do not work. If Kairoos Solutions is reading this, please stop copy pasting your code, your customers know you are doing this and it shows. To get sharing to work on Scrivo Pro you MUST have noteswriter pro installed. I am looking elsewhere for a good writing app.KevonCraneVersion: 13.1.5

Always quits when opening a pdfThe app just quits when Opening a PDF.采莲小和尚Version: 13.1.1

Lots of lag?Good app. Very simple but I get a lot of lag (especially with erasing and highlighting). Any way to mitigate this issue?.Element9300Version: 11.0.5

Doesn’t work with Apple PencilDoesn’t sense the pressure, and now the curser jumps randomly while writing and the writing looks terrible. I left a review couple months ago, and the team asked me to write an email, then I wrote an email but received no feedback at all. Very disappointed..HswgzufkrhshVersion: 10.9.0

It’s an okay app but not greatIt’s got most of the basic functions needed for note taking but I’m super disappointed after getting the latest updated version of this app. The app runs super slow, writing shows up extremely delayed which makes note taking in class very inconvenient..JennywaslavskiVersion: 10.8.8

Unable to write with my Apple PencilUnable to write at all. Worse than the free version..KanxheksVersion: 10.7.0
