Handwriting
Best writing engine
Some feature requests
I like the writing smoothing in this app- it’s why I switched from GoodNotes 6 but there are a few things I’m missing. Firstly, why can I not flip selections horizontally or vertically? Or rotate things whilst ensuring the size is kept constant. It makes it really annoying for me to draw more accurate sketches of things like plots. I would also love to have the writing box feature from GoodNotes in here. Also I wish I could edit curve paths after having drawn them like in GoodNotes. Please work on your image editing and curve drawing tools!

Absolutely love BUT.. lags…. Now pls fix
I just got an iPad and I tried all the “popular note taking apps” but I wasn’t satisfied with the way my handwriting turned out it was always messy even tho I knew it wasn’t my handwriting itself it never appealed to me. But this app! I’m so glad I found it it’s a hidden gem! Writing on this app with my pencil is soooo smooth and my writing is exactly how I write on an actual paper I love that it glides smoothly and doesn’t glitch I just got the pro version and I’m so happy thank you I hope this app gets the recognition it deserves 🤍
Hi 👋 so far it’s good however my fonts change automatically back to the original font even tho I changed it it’s kind of annoying cause it ruins the words I highlighted. And when I write with the pencil sometimes it writes way to boldly (I’m applying no pressure) even tho my setting is only set to 0.9 it gives me uneven words some letters are too bolded than others
ANOTHER UPDATE; nov 4 2024 this lags a lot , even the eraser lags like crazy then the app shuts down… plzzz fix this this is my favourite app for university plsss

Good but
It is exactly what i am looking for I just wish you could log into it from a different device
Amazing!!
Really love this app, going to college soon and im very excited to use this while studying!! ✍️
Very sad and disappointed 😢
I was starting to love this app, I thought it was better than my previous app which I had for a very long time, but I never had issues with the other one like I just have with this one.
Here is what happened, last night I had all my notes and information there on the app Element Note, the next morning all was gone!!! Just like that, I tried to put documents back, but nothing is working, it shows that the document or book is there but the pages are simply blank, is not showing any information or notes that I had. Most of my documents just disappeared on all my devices. I had 53 documents, now it says that I only have 8 and in those 8 the document won’t open and my notes are gone! 😔 so sad because I invested a lot of work with those notes. I think I’m going back to the previous note taking which it was Good Note and didn’t have any issues like this. I was just looking for something different and better improvements, but at the end wasn’t worth it! I prefer safe than more nice and cool tools.

Love it, but needs a few changes
I truly love this app, and the handwriting features here are better than any other app I’ve tried. This is the main feature that keeps me coming back, but there are a couple things that prevent me from using this as my main note-taking app. I’d love the app even more if just a few things were changed/added:
1. It would be great to be able to scroll through a document one single page at a time (rather than the continuous scroll which is the only option right now). I like being able to focus on one page at a time, and seeing the edges of the 2 pages on either side of the one I am writing on feels distracting. This is one of the main things that keeps me from using this app as my main note-taking app.
2. It would be nice to be able to add pictures with sharp corners (rather than rounded) or at least to have the option to choose whether pictures have sharp or rounded corners.
I really hope to see updates that include these features in the future, as I would love to use this app for all my note-taking and digital planning needs. I think it has the potential to be truly great, and I would love to see that happen!

Love the Interface; would love some changes tho
I recently bought the full version of Element Note. I love the UI - it’s clean with nice animations. I also love the pen stabilization feature - very nice for when you want your handwriting to look natural or smooth. For me, the biggest drawbacks for this note taking app is that the final handwritten notes are not that sharp. I can see its pixelation even from a distance. Please don’t rasterize the handwriting - I am not a fan of the low res look. Another issue that i take is that i cannot preset a desired thickness for my pens. I would love it if there was a way for me to have custom thicknesses preset for me… would save me a lot of time. I’ve been using Freenotes for a while and they have this bangers feature where you can switch to the eraser for only one turn of use. After that, it automatically switches back to the previous tool that i was using. This saves a lot of time and i would love to see that implemented here. I would love it if you would implement these changes that I have suggested. I’ll give you a five star review the day you do that. Happy developing!

Easy to master and get started!
I love to try different note taking apps in search for the one that will stick. I just started using it yesterday and love how it’s just the right amount of functionality to take down notes with my Apple Pencil and do some light formatting. I’ve struggled with others that have robust complicated functionality - cluttering up quick access to tools with things that I’ll never use. Really impressed with this app! I don’t usually write reviews unless they are deserving.

Amazing!!
I love everything about this app! There's so much you can do and create with all the helpful templates and pens and brushes. For those who like/ed scrapbooking, think of this app being able to digital scrapbook. I love the writing feature on it too, different papers to write on, lined or not. It's perfect for me to pull out my IPad and just start writing with my Apple Pencil!
