## What is INKredible?

“INKredible for iPad is an excellent note-taking app” - TUAW
“This New Handwriting App For iPad Promises To Be Quite INKredible” - AppAdvice.com

It’s amazing how pen and paper, two inventions dating back to thousands of years ago, have been almost irreplaceable. Until now. 
Inheriting the best inking feature from the popular Notes Plus app, now with its own automatic palm and wrist rejection, INKredible will make writing on an iPad feel as good as, or even greater than, pen on paper. You have to try it to believe it. It’s incredible!

SIMPLE

INKredible has only ONE single mission: to create an outstanding writing experience on an iPad. It is meant to be distraction-free. In fact most of the time, you will not see any UI controls or buttons, just a blank sheet of paper to write on.

BEAUTIFUL

With more than 3 years of R&D in vector-graphics inking technology, we are confident INKredible - with a sophisticated manipulation of Bezier curves - will make your handwriting look more beautiful than on paper.

Even more specially, it will look good in any resolution, for printing or displaying purposes. Just zoom in and you will see why INKredible is unique among other handwriting apps.

… and, well, PERFECT!

OK, the INKredible writing experience on an iPad might not be perfect, but it is as close to perfection as you can find.

It is FREE. Try it today and see for yourself.

### 3/5 — No notebooks in iPad?

*2024-12-31, version 2.0*

I like how I can individual on my Android phone, not sure why we can’t on iPhone.

### 5/5 — Different app

*2024-09-03, version 2.0*

What’s the difference between note plus and note plus x?

### 5/5 — Invaluable

*2024-03-14, version 2.0*

I keep this app in my dock.
It’s my go-to when I need to take quick notes for example while on a phone call for work.
I can then export the notes as or when needed, or import them into notes +.
(The calligraphy stylus is the best of any note taking app I have tried).

### 2/5 — Limited value

*2023-12-18, version 2.0*

Superficial instructions that offer no real information.  Seems there’s no page set-up, other than default (which is ???).  Theres a “print” function, but no apparent way to set-up this, either.  On the positive side, it makes handwriting look pretty on the screen.   A pitty there’s no apparent way to use it.

### 5/5 — Nice and smooth

*2023-09-22*

I use this app to calm me down, it’s a very smooth and effective. One thing I noticed is that it kind of fixes your handwriting and makes it very smooth! I haven’t stumbled into any problems yet so that’s why it’s 5 stars!

### 1/5 — Erases previous stroke

*2023-05-13, version 2.0*

Yeah as others have said, in calligraphic mode it sometimes erases previous stroke.  This is very annoying making the app useless.

### 4/5 — Backgrounds Not Loading

*2022-12-21*

This is my favorite app, that I use the most on my iPad and now the background papers that I’ve paid for no longer loading properly.

### 1/5 — Only 1 note! Really!

*2022-07-18, version 2.0*

This app only has one note. You can add lots of pages but they are all contained in a single note/document!
How odd is that?

### 4/5 — Enjoying it more than notes +

*2022-06-07*

I hope this app is not abandoned. I'm liking it more than notes +, as it is more focused and less buggy. The only thing missing is a highlighter tool.

### 2/5 — Cannot export notebook

*2022-05-07, version 2.0*

Too bad for using on ipad, too less function more than on android and cannot export to pdf
