Are you a teenager who believes that spending time in cute notes will make you learn? This app is for you. Otherwise you have so much better and free alternatives. VERY IMPORTANT: Be aware that if you end a subscription you will not be able to access any note, and that they will COMPLETELY DELETE your files 14d after. And all that subscription money for fancy cute features, but still you cannot access your note on a computer. Again, a teenager app. Free, serious, cross-platform PDF ann: Zotero.

Dear user, as stated in our policy: https://tinyurl.com/3av9yudz, if the subscription was not renewed by the end of the 14-day grace period, cloud-stored notes will be removed. There are both in-app and email notifications sent prior and by the time of expiry. Feel free to contact us if you have other questions. Thank you.

Best Sync between iOS and Android. Previously i was using OneNote for its sync capabilities, but i started having issues when i installed my emplyer office suite. In addition to the great sync, Notewise is feture rich when compared to OneNote, multiple pen tools, page templates, settings and the lasso tool is more coapable. 100% recommended

I wish the screen scrolling could be from rigth to left; it's more fun than scrolling up and down , like a real book. I also want more freedom in cropping images, a feature to save stickers, and more tape patterns. Everything else is great. There's a slight lag, but it's forgivable. 💗😌👍🏻
