Horrible compared to iPad app. Writing lags. the cover and page feature is extremely confusing. No way to utilize button on S Pen. It can make a good Delete or Undo button. No undo on two or three finger tap. No mind mapping templates. Templates are confusing. Installing a template and creating a notebook using a template gave me a notebook with 13 pages with the cover page template.

I had high hopes after looking at my friends notes with iPads. Friends, it is NOT THE SAME. At all. It lacks canvas compatibility that iOS has which is absolutely obnoxious. It won't let you upload notes into the notebooks themselves and it lags pretty badly. I was constantly behind on lectures. I wanted to like it because of long press for line straightening and palm rejection, but this is the worst app I've used for notes. That's even compared to One Note and my default app.

I have this app on my iPad and LOVE it, but here on android I can't even get past the preview. The app only allows me to swipe through the "here's what is in the app" images and will not let me interact with anything else. It also doesn't give me a way to get past the initial info. I attempted to use the new pen that comes with the Galaxy s24+ but that had the same lack of effect. Please fix this, I want to use this on my new giant phone so bad!
