Description of Note Taker HD

Zoomed ink, PDF markup, photos, shapes, typed text, folders and tagging, extensive AirPlay control, and much more. The latest upgrade of one of the first note taking apps designed specifically for the Apple iPad and now also available for the Apple iPhone, Note Taker HD has long been known as a powerful and stable application for writing and organizing handwritten notes and diagrams. Note Taker HD can also be used to annotate PDF files. It can shrink your writing so you can easily fit a lot of text on a page. You can read the reduced-size "ink" as if you had written those letters with a very fine pen. It gives you solid functionality and control to produce the pages you need. Documents are flexibly organized by tags, date/time last modified, favorites, and more, with a scrolling list of thumbnail images of part of each page to help you find them later. You can email one or more pages as a single PDF file, "Open In" other apps, or, if your device supports it, print. Note Taker HD lets you create pages by writing on the screen with your finger or an iPad/iPhone-compatible stylus. You can either write directly on the page for large drawings, or have the "ink" you write shrunk down. You can write in large letters on the screen rather than trying to make tiny motions like a pencil. You just keep writing and Note Taker HD automatically adds new writing next to the old. To quickly correct mistakes, it has multi-level undo and redo buttons as well as an eraser -- just drag your finger over the page to erase the "ink" under it. You can zoom in and out on a page using the pinch gesture while viewing or editing. The Zoomed Editing window lets you see both a zoomed-out overview and a zoomed-in close-up writing area at the same time. You can use "Open In" in other apps send PDF files to Note Taker HD for annotation. Other features include: - Pages organized into documents and folders - Typed blocks of text with optional borders - 60+ highly customizable shapes - Insert and crop images from Photo Albums, Pasteboard, or the iPad/iPhone camera - Custom backgrounds from images or PDF pages - Free templates and clip art on the support web site - VGA/HDMI/AirPlay support with zoom, pan, and a moveable pointer - Wrist guard to avoid inadvertent touches - Layout variations better suited to some left-handed users - Optional fields in output footers like in a word processor - Extensive built-in help - Smooth and crisp ink on screen and in PDF output - Share editable copies of your documents with others - Backup to a single file for off-iPad/iPhone storage - Password protected folders - Support for the iOS Data Protection API - Support for languages written right-to-left - Full-screen preview mode - Automatic advance and auto-return in zoomed editing - Copy/Cut/Paste between pages, rotate/resize ink Note Taker HD was designed and programmed by Dan Bricklin, the same person who over 40 years ago came up with VisiCalc, the pioneering electronic spreadsheet that made working with numbers on a personal computer so easy.

Leave a Review Note Taker HD
  • It will become priority software

    I don’t remember exactly when I started using NoteTaker HD, but it was long enough ago that it has been one of my first installs on several iPads by now. It is a favorite because of the many things it can do, and therefore because of all the solutions it provides me, as I process through all the dang information that moves across my consciousness every day. And, because Dan Bricklin is so engaged with the product (in the videos, responses to questions, etc.),I feel a personal connection to NoteTaker HD, unlike other soulless apps from God knows who. NoteTaker HD does so many things that, if you are new, you should allow yourself time to just play and wade into it. Before long, you’ll start to realize the power you can have to organize and manage all that information, and you, too, will have lots of wow moments and priority downloads onto new generations of iPads.

  • Solid as a rock, year after year

    I started using NoteTakerHD in 2010 on my iPad 2, entering data into my homegrown social work encounter form, imported as a .pdf and saved as a template. I chose NoteTakerHD because it was the only note taking app password protected and encrypted to HIPAA standard.

    I have used this app every working day since, now installed on an iPad Pro 11 inch. Never a glitch. Stone cold reliable.

    Other apps for taking notes may have more features, but I trust this only this one for my psychotherapy notes, all sensitive, health-protected documents.

  • Makes the iPad Great for Work

    I turn to this app on a daily basis for my job. Whether for annotating my reviews on a PDF report, creating a flow diagram to help a group with developing a process, filling out a form for HR, or just using one of the many useful templates that come with the app, this helps me focus on getting my work done effectively. I have enjoyed using this for at least 10 years. I have tried a lot of other note-taking apps, but this one alone stands the test of time. The developers have my deepest gratitude; my iPad would not be useful to me without this app.
