NotingPro is a professional handwritten note-taking and PDF annotation app designed exclusively for iPad. Say goodbye to pixelated edges. Powered by our proprietary low-latency vector ink engine, NotingPro lets you write stunningly beautiful strokes with natural gradients and realistic brush character right on your iPad. Even when zoomed in 20x, your notes remain sharp, clear, and distortion-free. Say no to expensive long-term subscriptions! NotingPro uses a one-time purchase model, giving you the purest and most efficient paperless writing experience. [Ultra-Smooth Writing Experience]** - Proprietary vector ink engine: Low latency, incredibly fluid, and works with Apple Pencil pressure sensitivity to effortlessly create elegant stroke variations. - Versatile brush library: Offers fountain pen, pencil, art pen, sketch pen, and a variety of markup pens, with adjustable opacity and thickness. - Signature gradient colors: Freely set start and end colors to write gorgeous gradient text; supports saving frequently used color palettes and syncing them across devices. - Smart laser pointer: Not only writes across pages and changes color on the fly, but also fits geometric shapes — a perfect tool for presentations and annotations. [Powerful PDF and Layout Processing] - All-in-one PDF annotation: Supports long-press excerpting, line highlighting, wavy underlines, and translation. Annotation content also supports gradient colors and secondary editing. - Multi-level outlines and bookmarks: Easily handle thick textbooks; supports margin expansion, so note-taking is no longer confined to the original page layout. - Flexible page management: Insert various A4 paper templates (yellow/black/white backgrounds), add unlimited pages, write across pages, rearrange page order, and support both vertical and horizontal scrolling. [Advanced Tools & Pro-Level Play] - Layer management: Just like professional drawing software, support creating, drag-to-reorder, merging, and deleting layers. - Super lasso and fill: Drag to select content across pages, move, scale, and rotate in one step; one-tap intelligent fill for enclosed areas. - Multimedia insertion: Insert multiple images (drag, drop, and scale across pages) as well as text boxes with keyboard input. - For the detail-obsessed: Customizable delete actions, invisible tape for memory aid (tap to show/hide), and unlimited undo/redo. **[Secure Sync & Multi-Screen Collaboration]** - iCloud real-time sync: Notes are securely saved in your cloud, seamlessly connected across all your devices. - Split View and multi-window: Support opening multiple windows on iPad, allowing you to read literature and take notes side by side, doubling your efficiency. - Easy sharing: Import PDFs directly from the system share sheet, and export beautifully formatted PDFs with one tap to share with others. **[About Free Trial & Unlocking] - To ensure a great experience, NotingPro offers a free trial version. - Free tier limits: You can create up to 5 notes in total (each note can have up to 5 pages and layers). - Kind reminder: The limit is lifetime cumulative; deleting created notes does not restore the quota.

I think if it’s sharper then more calligraphic design can be created. Thank you Add: Hi! I totally understand the function you designed for the art pen. I personally use it to do some artistic calligraphy design, with the beautiful colors come with this app, a art pen means so much more ( at least to me) looking forward to the update **Developer response:** Hi! The essence of art pen is to draw an ellipse without jagged edges. Now the drawing of an ellipse is not perfect enough, and it will be optimized in the future. ### 2/5 — Can only import 5 pages *2023-12-10* My pdf file has 22 pages and after import it has only 5 left, it happens to rest of my imports. No matter how great this app is but this is a deal breaker. Hope this can be fixed **Developer response:** I am very sorry. The PDF imported by non-VIP users will only show the first 5 pages (even if the PDF is more than 5 pages), VIP users will not have this limitation (but need to pay about $2.1 purchase fee), the number of open pages and the number of open files is the only limitation for non-VIP users, non-VIP users can use all other note-taking tools, which is explained in detail in the introduction of Noting Pro, it may be that the English translation is not accurate, which leads to some misunderstanding. ## Frequently asked questions about Noting Pro ### What are the limitations of the free version of Noting Pro?
