Exceptional Note-Taking with Smart Writing and Organization

Excellent apps to take notes. I like the way it corrects my writing, also the spelling check even if I am handwriting, I love how easy it is to organize all my notes

Excellent Writing Experience, Canvas Navigation Needs Improvement and crippled single payment plan.

(one) best writing experience using apple pencil so far, even the native notes are no match in this aspect. I'm coming from a long-term experience with pencils and digital writing, been using ThinkPad convertible notebook/tablet (x220T) throughout my MBA, and back in the day, there was no apple pencil, so this machine got me through along with the MS OneNote. And today, you don't have to lug your notebook around, an ipad is more than enough for your studies. Now I also use an e-ink android tablet, which tbh is noteworthy subpar in terms of palm rejection causing much trouble when you write and pencil tip is also gets a bit off when jotting around the corners. so the ipad is much better in terms of writing experience, yet, there is a catch, native notes, ms Onenote are not handling the pencil well, and this is the are where goodnotes catchup. (two) and yes, YOU CAN ADD PDFS/files/whatever to the section and all these docuements become a part of the section as well. and they stay SEPARATE, i.e. not embedded into the notebook, like Evernote or OneNOte does. that's probably something boiling down to a personal choice however i prefer GN's approach because I annotated so many PDFs inside the Evernote, and there is no visually organized way to have a look at all the files, theyre hidden inside the evernote's notes.

Effortless Note-Taking and Organization Made Simple

I appreciate how helpful this tool is for taking notes, and I find it quite interactive, which keeps things interesting. It's very simple to create folders, upload photos, and add notes directly to them. Organizing both notes and pages is straightforward, so I never feel confused or overwhelmed.
