Amazingly tactile and well made app.
So much potential!

Thank you for such a detailed review, and for the kind words about how it feels to write. You found a real bug with the text tool. When writing with Apple Pencil, each word was sometimes treated as a paste, which sent the cursor back to the start of the paragraph. That is why your words landed inside sentences you had already finished. It is fixed in the next update. For handwriting in the text box, please make sure Scribble is on in Settings > Apple Pencil, and start writing inside the box. We are also improving how reliably it picks up the Pencil. An object eraser, a larger eraser size and more pen and pencil types are all on our list. Thank you for telling us what would make the difference for you. If anything else feels off, we would love to hear it at support.note@perenne.app.
Started hopeful

Thank you for the honest feedback, and I’m sorry the first experience was a frustrating one. The lag you’re describing isn’t normal, the app shouldn’t be unusable, so something specific is going wrong on your setup and I’d genuinely like to fix it. If you can tell me which iPad model you’re on, it would help me track it down. A lot of performance issues come down to a specific device or iPadOS combination I can then reproduce and patch. On the pricing: the base app is free with 6 pages, and that’s meant to be a real trial, not a teaser. The paid part is individual notebooks (one-time purchase) or a subscription if someone prefers. I hear you that it wasn’t clear enough up front, and that’s on me to communicate better, not something I want anyone feeling tricked by. If you’re open to giving it another shot once I understand the lag, write me directly, I read every message and I’d rather fix the problem than lose you over it
So far so good!
Only needed the free version but went ahead and bought the notebooks because obviously they give you more bang for your buck

Thank you so much, really appreciate you taking the time to leave a review and for supporting the app by getting the notebooks 🙏. Hope it keeps living up to expectations. If anything ever feels off or missing, feel free to reach out through the in app feedback, I read everything personally.
