This is the best one

If you just want to make notes on digital paper that looks and feels like actual paper, this is the best iPad app for that and it's not even close.

Terrible

Way to expensive, poor file organisig, not intuitive menus. Not worth it!

Infinite paper request

Thank you for this app. Best writing experience.

I have a request for a scrollable infinite paper.
Not having to keep adding pages, but simply scroll left or down to be able to continue writing.

The printing or pdf format could then again be converted to pages
Hope this is a possibility. Thank you. RM

Smooth writing

I have used Notability, GoodNotes 5 and Noteshelf 2, and let me tell you, it feels so natural to write, it may lack some great features from the rest but the experience has no comparison. I will compare to a brand new Mercedes Benz..so smooth to ride...

Great little app

Thought I’d give Note Always a try, having been through many, many iPad note-taking apps. Using this app is a delight! Can’t say that about many others I’ve downloaded. The app is thoughtfully designed and the ease and simplicity of using it is like a breath of fresh air. Very nicely done. Looking forward to many years of frequent use.

Nice but lacking

Nice UI features when writing. But needs folders, continuous vertical scrolling, and an expandable tool bar. Also a way to set defaults. Bug: At page 3 of a note the background reverts to grid. In it’s current state, definitely not worth the price.

One of the most natural and practical note taking apps

I am a user of note apps and constantly search for the best app. I use both free and paid. Note Always has the right balance of natural pen feel and digital use of ink and its manipulation. I am using it for business on a daily basis. An iPhone / Mac version and some basic copy / paste / duplicate capabilities and it will become a front runner in this space IMHO.

Just Needs

Just needs type capabilities with fonts, more colors for the bigger size lines, and a big marker size with the bold colors!

It’s nice!

I agree that nothing comes as close as paper on the iPad! It’s the simple things and general approach. I tried many other apps before finding this one. I also like the way photos behave in notebooks.

Nothing—NOTHING—is closer to pen on paper

This app provides a very simple, clean, and enjoyable iPad environment for writing with Apple Pencil. It is incredible how close to writing on paper this is, even when writing in very small detail. I have 22 (twenty-two!) writing apps (notebook and sketching) on my iPad Pro and this is at least 10 times closer to writing on paper than any of them. Even the most popular note-taking apps do not interpret my handwriting like a physical notepad does (they often fail miserably). Note Always is amazing at making my writing look exactly as it would on paper.

I have only one request. I know this is a simple writing app, but if I could annotate PDFs on this, it would be absolutely perfect for me. Please, please add the feature to import PDFs. This would make it 5-stars!

Thank you for creating this gorgeous app.
