Pros/Cons
Pros
- The interface is great, the personalization in notes is excellent, the price is right, and the handwriting is exquisite. Overall GoodNotes is a 10/10 product, highly recommended.
- There are some excellent features, like the ability to resize certain portions or screenshot parts of my textbook and add it to my notebook. Also a good app for signing documents.
- Great experience overall. I love taking notes when you can make them organized & easy to understand.
Cons
- I have the feeling that one day I will receive news that the application has stopped support and that the files that it has been attacked are stolen.
- The text box feature could be better, the use lack of integration with a keyboard makes it frustrating to use.
- If you could cut and paste more than just one page at a time.
Pros
- The ease of use and UX are way better than any other similar tools. The audio recording and its synch with the note taking is a killer feature and works like a charm.
- Being able to draft my notes from my phone & continue where I left off on the bigger iPad screen is a great experience thanks to its flawless synchronization.
- It is a great product with an excellent interface and generates a great satisfaction in all aspects.
Cons
- I just came across one problem so far which is the page divider. It seems that when you use lines for your page it's the same color as the page divider and it often gets ignored.
- In the past I have had some problems using the desktop version.
- It kicks you out for no reason and deletes you work if you don’t do something.
