  • Love Noteshelf

    I’ve been using noteshelf for a while and don’t often leave reviews. But this is just one of those apps/platforms I find incredibly useful. It’s become my go to place to make notes - as I always know where they are and can more easily find notes instead of flicking through pages and pages on a paper notebook.

    I do wish this was a available on desktop PC, to simply type notes and be able to read notes. Using it with Evernote means you can then look up notes on desktop when synced - if Evernote can do it, there’s no reason why Noteshelf can’t! Either way it’s still my go-to note taking platform. Love it. And the templates they have on offer for things like daily schedules. Well worth using.

  • BEST NOTETAKING APP I HAVE USED!

    I am not one to leave reviews but after trying every note taking app under the sun, I can finally say have downloaded the last one l will ever need to
  • Almost everything I want

    I’ve tried all kinds of note taking apps, and this is the one I wouldn’t want to do without! It’s excellent for annotating files. I use it for all my essay marking. On the iPad with an Apple Pencil it’s pretty much exactly like writing with a pen on paper. I love that it doesn’t flatten the annotations like other apps do. I can reopen the file hours later and still erase and add annotations. I also like the new options for customizing covers. Makes it really easy to differentiate and identify notebooks for particular purposes.
    The main area for improvement is file import/export. Even though the function implies you can do multiple files at a time, you can’t. Super frustrating doing them one at a time. The exported files are also embarrassingly huge.

  • Seems capable

    This seems like a really capable note taking app, the one feature that is a deal breaker for me is not being able to nest folders…

  • Stays the distance and strikes the right balance

    There are many (many) alternative products in this space but IMHO very few get the right balance between ease of use and too many features as well as Noteshelf.

    I’ve been a user since the very beginning and never regretted it

    Noteshelf has a fantastic ink algorithm (80% of the experience) and introduces new features/fixes without making the UI clunky and inconsistent.

    Mac version syncs nicely (though don’t expect the user experience to be as smooth as for IOS.)

    Great Job!

  • Incredible Tool for Professionals!

    I’ve never written a review for an app on the App Store, but this one merits the time. As a professional (federal prosecutor), I had long been looking for a flexible and adaptable note-taking application for the iPad. I love the fact that it is easy to create your own notebook covers and note pages. I’ve been able to create note pages similar to Cornell notes that are modified to suit my needs as well as to do lists that exactly suit my requirements. I’ve also created color coded covers that I use to help organize cases. In addition, I love the fact that you can enter data in a number of ways—typing, writing (works great with an Apple Pencil!). You can import .pdf, audio, photo, and other files. Finally, unlike many other apps, the developers seem to care about their product. Updates and added features occur with an amazing regularity. I highly recommend this product. Carrying an iPad with the Noteshelf app installed is far easier, making you more productive and more organized than carrying a bunch of references and notepads around. Noteshelf is one of the few apps that I have found where you get far more than what you have paid for.

  • Great app

    I like that pencil best in writing
  • almost the bast note app ever

    I have bought every note app availed, and this is so close to being my favourite! I genuinely think the handwriting is much better on this app than any of the others. The ONLY reason this is not a solid 5 star review and my go to app for everything is that there are some significant bugs specifically when attempting to insert photos. If this is not something that you need to do regularly, choose this app, it is the BEST! If you pull photos or screenshots into you notes on the regular, you will be annoyed at the process of loading the photo to the app, going back into the photo section, and adding the pic, not only is that mildly more laborious than other apps, it crashes consistently, Albeit the first pic of the writing session seems to always work, it is subsequent photo uploading that will not work consistently. For my purposes, this is a big issue and I use the app, but can’t let go of the apps like GoodNotes that in my option are inferior, but consistent in this much needed function. Many of the other bugs and glitches have been remedied so I am hopeful that this one will be to in time and I can give the 5 star review that it otherwise deserves and delete the other note taking apps from my devices. Fingers crossed!

  • Awesome note-taking app!

    This is now my go to application to take notes. The addition of the pen tool bar is a real time saver when you find yourself switching pen colors or types in the same document in order to emphasize elements of your writing. As a teacher, I use noteshelf2 to document my complete solutions to homework and test questions which has sped up my grading process especially looking for partial credit opportunities.

  • Still the best.

    I’ve used Noteshelf since it first came to the App Store. It has the best most natural handwriting engine out of all the notebook app available and the developers continue adding great new features. Highly recommended.
    Update: It’s been over 5 years now and still the best, nothing else comes close. All updates just keep making it better and the handwriting is still as smooth as ever.
