Effective and improving
Thanks for this thoughtful app, which is getting better with every update. Adapting to its possibilities is a pleasant experience. Appreciate the privacy.

Very good note taking app
It’s replaced the other ones I’ve been doing and for a much more reasonable price. The only issue I’ve had so far is that importing PDF’s is a little quirky sometimes, which I believe may be related to iCloud sync. Otherwise, it’s fast and so far pretty reliable (only one crash losing data, which is luckily never more than a minute or two in the past)

Amazing app! It just works!!
This is an amazing piece of software the developer has put their heart and soul into. This has primarily replaced almost anything I’d normally use a pen and paper for. I use it primarily for taking notes in class and journaling, occasionally to make to-do lists and scribbling things I need to keep a track of (Excellent for ADHD). The developer is amazing a responds to questions, concerns and feedback almost immediately. The only 2 features which make me go back to GoodNotes is the lack of support for converting , your notebook to LaTex and the lack of a zoom video with an auto advance feature allowing me to keep my notes tidy and write complex differential equations or working with proofs etc. (kinda important for STEM majors). Other than that kudos to the dev and thank you for making such an amazing application.
P.S. Noteful gets a lot of reviews as inexpensive alternative to GoodNotes/ Notability but I find that this application is richer and very intuitive to use. And, my handwriting looks a lot better on UltraNotes compared to Noteful which seems crude in comparison.

Need some improvements.
Great app but navigation needs improvement. Suppose I made folders inside a folder or one more layer of folder and if I need to access them then I need to click lot many back back, if you see notion then there you can see that left side navigation panel you can see dropdown subfolders pages titles etc which makes lot easier to navigate and quickly reach out where you want to go. Or may be on more sub navigation panel next to main panel. But I like Notion navigation for pages and folders which makes life lot easier while working on multiple folders or pages.

Works as expected
Out of all the note taking/pdf markup apps I’ve tried, this is the most intuitive and seamless. It just works, and I’m able to handle my pdfs as if I had printed them off.
Big issues with the app (still love it though)
I’ve grown to hate the apple notes app because of no zoom and no individual pages. I came from Samsung notes on android which is the gold standard for notes apps. Never got hot or deleted items. I have been having an issue where added pages do not save when I get out of the note and that’s insanely bad. Almost not usable. This only happens when I bring in PDFs and insert pages, not on normal notes. I would love if y’all can quickly fix this because this is stressful. Also the getting hot while writing is an apple issue I guess since it’s on every iPad I have tried and in multiple apps. I also wish the duplicate function and the ruler can be dragged across page to page.

As if good notes and apple notes had a baby!
I’m an avid user of both good notes and apple notes. I’m also an artist and so when journaling sometimes I start sketching and rendering ideas. This app has the same tools as apple notes: pencil, watercolor etc.. but in the same workflow format as good notes: pages in a notebook, multiple notebooks etc.. Really love this app! For future updates I would love to see password protected notebook.

Great journal type app, some quirks
To me, this is a journaling application, not a notes app like Apple Notes, Bear or Obsdian. UltraNotes heavily relies on pen usage…It will sync your notebooks to iCloud, but you can’t use them in iCloud like other notes apps…If you want to draw or hand write, you have to click on draw, select your tool, such as highlighter, pen, fountain pen, etc…If you want to use text, you have to insert a text box then type. There is no resizing for the text box. You just have to select a larger font to adjust box size…if you are into writing journals, this is a great app, even has traditional journal covers. Don’t think it’s for me, but will keep an eye on it.

The note can be opened with editing mode in next update. I understand your pain as I also use keyboard input a lot. We're planning to bring markdown editor into app.
