About

A web note-taking app for creative people that combines the best from text editors and whiteboards. Think, write, and organize your thoughts based on cards and tabs. Structure and enrich all of your ideas in one place. By creating an infinite canvas where cards, much like sticking notes, resemble a neatly organized collection of inter-related ideas. They serve as units of thoughts with clear borders, displayed on a squeaky-clean white canvas. To preclude the document from becoming messy as the number of cards augments, we betted on clear-cut and intuitive functions. They include drag’n’drops; deep dive; tabs within a document; embedded pictures, videos, and links; sub-pages. As a result, the users get a well-organized, easy-to-navigate space. Rather than providing bits and pieces of scattered information, the tool gives you a bird’s-eye view of the cards creating the big picture. Our app offers a collaborative space for teams, sharing cards, and elaborating on ideas.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • 1) The app has many size options. The different pen sizes allows me to highlight just enough text or write supper small or super large. 2) The app is great for annotating. Porting PDFs to Notability is very easy. It also has the tools one needs to annotate (pen, highlighter) but isn't bogged down by too many options. 3) I find it exports well. I find that the app is good at exporting my notes over to places such as Google Drive, where I can then share them with my classmates. 4) Amazing audio-annotation feature. I have hearing loss, so the audio recordings that are synchronized with the notes I take in class was the selling point to me -- this feature does not disappoint. 5) It has efficient organization. The app also allows me to be highly organized. I love being able to make a file for each semester of school and then have individual class folders within. 6) The app has good pricing. The app has two subscription options of $2.99 monthly or $11.99 annually. I find that for the effectiveness and ease pf the app, this price could be higher.
  • 1. There are a lot of tools to create detailed and attractive notes. 2. It allows adding audio, pictures, and other media to the notes to make it more brief. 3. It helps in keeping all the notes organized. 4. All the saved notes can be searched from a universal search button. 5. All the notes gets stored on the cloud securely.
  • - Notability is a great application to take large notes or articles because of its tools. - There multiple tools to add colours, pictures and element to make the notes more detailed and brief. - Created notes gets organized in a manner that they can be accessed easily in the future.
  • Notability's mobile version is a super convenient and has an appealing interface. The notes card is very attractive and adds a minimal touch. You can store notes in multiple ways that include, by writing, recording and scanning the documents.
  • It's a portable version of notes that offers you anywhere to write and store notes. Intuitive user interface. Handwritten notes option. Scan and store feature.

Cons

  • 1) Notability is a subscription service. The app only runs on subscription options, which can be annoying if one stops using it for a long period of time, so say the summer break from school. 2) Templates are slightly complex at first. I found that the app defaults to a blank page for its template, and it took me a few days to figure out how to change this. 3) The special shapes are tricky. Making special shapes with the pen feature, such as curved lines and arrows, can be tricky. I find that the program sometimes fails to see the difference between a hand-drawn curved arrow and a straight line.
  • 1. The price of the application is a bit too high compared to other alternatives. 2. Saving notes to Google Drive is a hassle.
  • - It serves the purpose, but it gets complex to use and does not have a simple UI. - It is difficult to gets around the application initially.
  • Not, very cost effective in platform in my usage.
  • It worked great for me. Nothing to share about cons.
