Used to be worth it.

I initially bought this app for 10 bucks 3 years ago and it was the best thing ever for college but it’s been unusable since it updated to goodnotes 6. I had access to unlimited everything before and now I have access to practically nothing. And of course they want you to pay a subscription now🙄

Keeping a way

‏ started well, then it became more quality, then fell to the lowest level and it became not worth downloading as well as the amounts paid for nothing
