I find apples note not bad

Ageee on one note is UI too chunky not user friendly

Suspect due to the last t&c leak say Evernote emoloeee can view your contents & increase in $ so is goes down hill plus change of management & boss too



Just curious. Why nobody mentions evernote?

Is the one that has machine transcription?

Can Goodnotes 4 users try this?

I used goodnotes and screen recording in iOS 11. Once done with recording, I can view the video which has audio but once I upload into google drive and watch the video from Google drive, the audio is gone.

Anyone experienced this?

good notes's search is only within the open documents right?

Seems like it is not able to search the entire collections....

Just re-test. For Good Notes.
Outside under selection or collection, sesrch functions works to search for filename.
When a document is opened,search is able to search for hand sketch info.

Good note still no global search ?

Ya I'm tried notability nit bad as good as iOS notes
But I still pick iOS notes as First & notability 2nd for the user friendly & UI
Evernote powerful but UI is suckcs now plus kept on on increase the cost

So I'm not willing to pay if only Evernote changeover it UI
As I prefer the old UI

Notability is good amongst other apps

I mostly use the GoodNotes for sketches and notes for office stuff.

I do still use iOS notes for my personal notes, keeping url address and other 'Text" base related info. As this can sync across my iPhone, iPad and MBA.

Layout is it will show the "collections", you select.

1st level, you can select the Categories
2nd level, select sub-categories
3rd level, select the documents or the Notebook.

It will layout as those rectangular as mine was set to A4 size. not like in list view and seems no place for selection.


> Does it let u have a global search from iOS spotlight & from inside app ?
I tried to search from spotlight a name of Notebook => not possible
inside the app search, there is 2 types
1 - under the sub-categories level, it only allow you to search for Documents. Meaning by document name.
2 - Open the Document or Notebook, under the menu there is a Search, only from here, I am able to search on hand written words.
