Just want to write another review (can’t remember if I submitted before), but please keep this app alive and ticking. No other app has matched the fluidity in the handwriting smoothness, the scrappiness of getting notes/drafts/documents on a virtual desk as this app has done. Only feature request I’d love is recording notes. Not sure if the latest iPadOS updates have an API to record/transcribe into a document? That would be it. Fantastic all the way through!
