App is decent. Updates are not great. Nebo is very slow in adding even simple features. Customer support always respond saying that they value customer's feedback, but they don't let us know if and when they would implement anything. I have submitted several requests but I have not received a concrete "yes" or "no" for a single one of them.

At Nebo, we thoroughly evaluate all feature suggestions to enhance user experience. While prioritizing features for all users, we cannot specify availability timelines. Your requests are duly noted for future consideration. We've recently updated our app with new features. Thank you for your valuable contribution to our improvement. Sebastian

I've been looking for a note taking app superior to aoneNote for a long time, and I can say enough goog things about Nebo. It offers quite a few of the great features that OneNote killed over the years, like having more than 4 pen styles and colors on the mobile, and ability to select entire sections and change colors by selecting a different pen. Multi platform support. No ongoing subscription, single time purchase (per platform), a unicorn among modern apps. Best note taking app.

Initially I loved the app, especially since I can have it on my phone and tablet. Folder structure - love it. But cloud sync is bad (creates conflicting copies every time), inserted pics cannot be cropped or saved back to the device, nebo-notebooks always open the first page, my pdf-based daily planner almost hit the maximum note content and now lagging badly. AI button in the right bottom corner is under my wrist - often gets in the way, page number field under the pen size also gets in the way
