We have been able to find a great note taking and to do list system with Notability. They have been outstanding in the features that we needed and we have no issues with it to date.

I love that we were grandfathered in to the pricing, because the amount of subscriptions we are forced to have for apps today is ridiculous. We got grandfathered in at $8.99 for life, so that was nice. They have unfortunately switched to the subscription model for new users though, which was disappointing. I love the personal customization options, and the robust document editing capabilities. I also live the filing system. It is neat and organized well. #### Cons The inability to use it on windows systems and devices. We do not use MacOS, so we can’t use this app on our laptops. Only mobile devices. #### Reasons for choosing Notability We didn’t want another subscription fee each month on top of the 23 we already have 😵‍💫 --- ### Notability: Unleashing the Potential of Digital Note-Taking - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Angelica B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Pharmaceuticals - Company size: 5001-10000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for free trial - Reviewed: June 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Notability proved to be a crucial tool for recording and compiling research findings, meeting notes, and study materials during my internship in the university's Department of Pharmaceutical Development and Research. I was able to take notes, highlight crucial details, and annotate PDF documents with ease because to the app's user-friendly design and plethora of writing options. The option to record meetings and courses was especially helpful for later listening. Even when working from different places, Notability's synchronization across my Apple devices made sure I always had access to my notes. Overall, Notability greatly improved my productivity and organization while I was an intern in the pharmaceutical industry. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros A broad feature set makes Notability a remarkable option for digital note-taking and organization.

The synchronization features of Notability allow for smooth access to notes on many devices, assuring consistency and ease.

Furthermore, Notability provides sophisticated organizational features like folders and tags that make it possible to efficiently categorize and retrieve notes. Overall, Notability gives consumers the tools they need to advance their note-taking. #### Cons Even while Notability succeeds in many areas, there are a few things to keep in mind. One drawback is that Notability is only available to iOS and macOS users because it was initially created for Apple devices. It's possible that users of other platforms won't have access to all of the app's features. Lack of real-time collaboration tools makes it less ideal for collaborative work than some other note-taking apps, which is another possible downside. Furthermore, even while Notability offers good handwriting recognition, it could not be as precise as other handwriting recognition software. Despite these minor drawbacks, Notability is still a strong and functional tool for personal note-taking and planning. #### Reasons for switching to Notability Due to its concentration on handwriting and annotation features and its flawless connection with the Apple environment, Notability stands out as a top option for digital note-taking.

I have been using Notability since it became available. It has had a very good roadmap and the company has been very careful not to convolute the tool with unnecessary features.

A true workhorse of note taking. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The ease of use and UX are way better than any other similar tools.

No incentive was offered Notability offers exceptional note-taking & sharing flexibility to carry on my work. 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. As such, I always draft my work reports (& personal notes) using the reliable software, & will continue to do for the foreseeable future. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Ever since I started using the app nine years ago during college, I was easily able to write down notes, sketch important details on snapped photos of the class whiteboard from my iPad mini & even share my notes to classmates in PDF format. Upon graduating & starting my engineering career, Notability has remained faithful with its feature-set & stability to continually support my productivity requirements. The highly-detailed, yet small-sized PDF exports of my notes are easily shareable especially on sites that have upload limit. The ability to move around & resize writings & inserted photos without messing the note page ensures content tidiness, & the wide selection of page UI options substantially elevates the note-taking experience. #### Cons I have absolutely no complaints with the app. It's just great. #### Reasons for choosing Notability What compelled me to try Notability first among other considerations were the reviews praising the user interface & overall experience. So, I installed it & gave it a try (& kept on using it since then). --- ### Simple & Amazing Organization with Easy Features - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Bree H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: E-Learning - Company size: 10000+ employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: November 2021 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered My overall experience has been fabulous. I have used Notability for two years now and tried many different note-taking applications, but this is the simplest and user-friendly app I have used. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros My favorite features about Notability is definitely the organization of notes. You can create folders that are easy to access with as many separate notes as you need, and you can create categories to separate the folders. Everything is super easy to access and create as a user. Importing and exporting are easier than making coffee. The Lasso Tool in Notability can move things around, make them bigger or smaller, copy it, and duplicate. You can turn handwritten words to text, and you can even keep recorded notes! #### Cons There isn’t anything super specific that is outrageously bad, but this is definitely not an app for drawing or being creative. It’s only function is to take notes in all different ways. #### Reasons for switching to Notability Ease of Use --- ### Notability, multifunctional Note taking app with many built in features, great for Students - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Naja H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Medical Practice - Company size: 10000+ employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Overall I think notability is a great software and I utilize it every day for hundreds and hundreds of notes over the course of my higher education. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Some of the things that I like the best about not ability or the ease of organizing different courses or topics and the ability to put in multiple different tabs within a specific course or within a specific project. Additionally I like that you are able to directly back up your notes into another storage feature such as Google drive or box. #### Cons Some of the things that I like the least about this software are that if you are running out of space on your device it is extremely difficult to upload the notes to be used. You would need to delete some notes or back them up somewhere else and then delete them. Otherwise as you are trying to open the notes up it just says downloading from the cloud and that typically takes a long time if it even downloads at all. ## More reviews [Next reviews](https://www.softwareadvice.com/productivity/notability-profile/reviews/?page=2) --- Notability Reviews, Pros and Cons - 2026 Software Advice
