### 1/5 — Can’t get it to work

*2023-06-03*

Bought it for the ease of taking notes while in law school. Can’t get it to do anything and it’s worthless using Apple Pencil

### 1/5 — Not worth $9.99 - not even worth $0.99!

*2022-01-16, version 1.0*

The Pros:  It downloaded and opened.  That’s it. 

The Cons: 
1.  I can’t change the color of the font.  This is a huge problem for me - especially since I work with my iPad in dark mode most of the time.  Black on black… doesn’t show up. 
2.  I’m trying to use my pen with it - again, black on black.  I can’t see what it’s writing or if it’s writing correctly. 
3.  It touts the Cornell system, but you have a clean blank screen to write on.  No tutorial screen or instructions or links to a help page - nothing.  If you’re used to using the Cornell system - PLEASE, save your money and go with something else.  

I really hoped this would make me more productive and help me retain more of my material for my college courses (I have gone back to school after a long break from my first time in school.  I’m looking for any and all tools to make the time I’m spending as productive and efficient as possible.)  This was not a winning tool. 

At the very least, there should’ve been a trial period.  I would’ve known (I did know) within the first 5 minutes this was not going to work for me.  Alas, no return and no refund.
