Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Numerous Language Taking & Export Files in pdf format to share in other communication softwares or email. Design is very nice and customizable.

Cons

  • Stubborn backup process, unable to back up to dropbox, OneDrive, and Google Drive. Only iCloud is able to be backup with (probably), but iCloud has no option shown in the app. Not sure only showing in apple id itself means a secured backup or not. But absolutely not worth risking your business and essential information gone. Another thing is it cannot share notes for collaboration…. I find this very low productivity when it comes to business and family activities.
