BUGS! | BUGS!! | BUGS!!! - DO NOT BUY !!!!!
This app has a lot of bugs. There’s no ruler function. Whenever I try to draw a straight line or a curved line, it auto-changes into something else. I can’t even revert it. I can only undo it, and if I try to draw that same line again, it does the exact same annoying thing.
It also shuts down sometimes, and out of nowhere it has deleted some of my notes. I tried installing and reinstalling multiple times, but nothing worked. As far as I can tell, the developers are not fixing anything.
This is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. So it’s not about recurring charges. It’s that they already got my money, and they’re not developing the product or making it better. That’s the problem.
I would not recommend Element Note to anyone. Do not buy it. If you’re going to spend money, spend extra dollars and get a better product. Spending extra dollars to get something that actually works is worth it. This app is not it. Do not recommend.

Good with unique features but not great
This app has a lot of unique features with the brushes compared to most note taking apps. I also LOVE the price and the dark mode. What I think it lacks is the ability to add links to other pages as well as some documents hyperlinks would not work. I also think it could use sticky notes feature but overall I like the app a lot.

Manual page add disappointing
I have really enjoyed this app, but the recent update makes it useless for note taking—new pages used to add automatically, now users have to manually add each new page. No longer works for classrooms where you cannot pause to manually add each new page. Please revert this to the way it was.
A nice, simple notetaking app.
Honestly, for a one time payment of 14 dollars, this is good stuff! It’s got all the features you’d need for taking notes whilst having a simple interface that is completely customizable. My only complaints is that the ‘find in text’ function seems to not work for me, and I really wish you could have multiple notes open at the same time using a tab system like that of browsers. Still, it’s worth the money imo.
Update: I figured out the issue with the find in text feature, you’d have to specify what language your notes are in within the settings. Now it works like a charm :)

One big problem
On this app I downloaded it a while back but when I try to write or draw it glitches and doesn’t work so please fix it for me because that would be really good
Please
I love your app! Personally, I think it’s the best note-taking app for iPad. But could you please add an option to lock the zoom? It drives me crazy when I’m writing and the zoom suddenly changes. Other than that, I absolutely love the app.
Awesome app!
I’ve tried this for the last few days and came here to buy it because I liked it so so much, and come to find out it’s free? That’s amazing. I very seldom buy apps but this one is certainly one I would’ve gladly paid for.
ETA: Ok, free for up to 3 notes but still it’s only $3.50 a year! I love this app. I’ve been missing NotesPlus so so bad since Apple pulled it out. But this one replaces it just fine.

Best!
The first thing I loved was how smooth it is to write as a person who never wrote with their iPad! Downloadable planners and notebooks work well on this ! It’s not clunky at all. I can’t wait to see what else they update this app with :)
Simplicity is appreciative
Much more enjoyable with less tools (like AI built-ins) no subscription, with only a onetime purchase. Highly recommend using it with pencil pro, the tool palette was very productive. I usually need stuff while on my Mac and the Mac version was also well polished in my opinion.
Needs a pin tool or other navigation tool inside the notes, like one notes menus, to skip and scan quickly through notes to find what ur looking for is a good feature that should be implemented to every note tools these days.
Overall: Great app that achieves more by adding less. Highly recommend for students:)

Possibly the best handwritten notes app on the store
I struggled with note taking apps on the iPad because they are either too basic or way too complex, and either have good digital pens or good organization tools, but not both.
This sweet little app strikes a wonderful balance of simplicity and power. Its pens are wonderful, making it a joy to write on the iPad, and the notebooks are simple and uncluttered, making my iPad really feel like the ultimate portable notebook. The interface is simple and thoughtful, so I always have the tool I need at hand while I am writing without distractions, but still have the option to edit my notebook pages or add bookmarks as needed. The stickers are fun but I haven’t found much use for them yet myself. The pens and interface are what sold me on this app.
My only requests for additions at this point would be 1) A planner or calendar page template, and 2) A way to add links from one page to another so I can make things like a notebook table of contents. Possibly also named bookmarks would be nice. I can understand omitting #2 to maintain the simplicity of the app, though.
Otherwise, I think the app is about perfect. The focused simplicity and thoughtful features are its strengths. My thanks to the developer!

Not work my application
Plz resolve this problem.
Love! Love! Love!
I’ve been looking for a note taking app that doesn’t break the bank and I’m SO thankful I found one. I especially love they had an affordable lifetime purchase. They have some really nice features that elevate the design of your notes. I can’t wait to see what I’ll be able to create in time. I haven’t been able to explore everything, but I love it to have a calendar option if it doesn’t already exist.

вылетает и снижено качество !!
Снижается качество при приближении, плохо прогружает файлы и самое неприятное просто ВЫЛЕТАЕТ И ЗАКРЫВАЕТСЯ. СДЕЛАЙТЕ ЧТО НИБУДЬ В ЖТИМ !!
New update sucks
Who thought it was a good idea to make the user scroll to delete when using the lasso? Adding the line curve is useful but everything else involving shapes is awful now, lines dont even snap to the correct length
Poor Shape Recognition
So far app is good, but i would like you to add some basic features which other famous note taking apps already have. The first one is the laser pointer, and the other one is whenever you try to form shapes, then either it won’t recognise it or it just form another shape. I literally drew a circle, it made a line out of it which is so irritating. And not even 2 or 3 times, it happens most of the time. Plz try considering it as i am a premium user. The last is the dotted pen, which are also missing

best NATURAL handwriting
Element note keeps it simple, and my handwriting looks almost exactly the same as writing on physical paper. Maybe it's my OCD but this makes it the only app I use for note taking. Wish there is a pen color bar instead of having to click on the pen each time. FYI I tried all the other note apps (e.g: goodnotes, notability, etc.) and my handwriting looks horrible on those apps (for example, my letters randomly flick or connect at the end and it is sooo annoying. like they're trying too hard to make it look natural).. Anyway, I LOVE this app. Please don't ever change this...

my favourite hand writing app
I have several hand writing apps installed on my two iPads. But Element Note is the one I use most. It has a simple, easy to use UI.
It works well with mi ESR and Apple pencils.
Highly recommended!

Only one thing keeping me back
This is a fantastic app. The only thing keeping me back from purchasing a lifetime plan is the ability to view, navigate, and edit a PDF file’s outline. This feature would make the app fantastic for reading and annotating books.
Good, but it can be better.
The app is just great, I love it very much, but there is a problem that did not exist before. When you want to align the marker line, it becomes dense and overlaps the text you want to emphasize, which is very unpleasant. Because it's inconvenient to draw straight lines by hand. Everything used to work very well
