### 4/5 — カール→オトトです。

*2026-02-27*

イマイチわからない、でもインストールします(笑う)

### 3/5 — 仕事の現場写真を纏めるのに便利

*2023-03-29*

iPhoneで写真撮影して説明テキストを加えてPDF や画像として送れるのは便利です
テンプレート形式で書式が保存できて撮影した写真を挿入するとサイズも定型サイズに自動でやってくれて　テキスト入力もエディタとして使えて　HTML とか対応してくれると便利だと思いました

### 5/5 — 書きやすいし便利

*2022-01-09*

書きやすいし次の授業のメモ用に役立つ準備もできるので助かりました。またこのアプリがあることでペンの太さや色、マス、消しゴムの太さを変えることが出来るのですごく役に立ちますが保存した時に消しゴムの消す跡が残るのと線が全部つながらないのだけはやめて下さい。

### 1/5 — めちゃくちゃ使いにくい

*2021-11-15*

とにかく使いにくかったです…

画像を途中で入れるのが結局できなく、わかりずさらもありすぐアンインストールしました…

### 5/5 — 使い始めてとりあえづ　良いかなと。

*2021-09-21*

ノートではないパソコンをアップデしながら長年使用ですが　タブレットは持ち歩きもできますし家の中でも。スマホでは拡大し見れるものとそうでないものの場合、細かな所をとタブレットですと見易いので　よく扱います。ん？印刷にはと考えた時に　タブレット内に元々
ある文章入力ものは察知しなく探しましたところ、
相性のあるアプリとし目につきました。使い方がわかるとなるほどです。
★5はしても面倒と感じる面もあります。文字入力に一々入力使用ボタンタップとか文字の大きさをのバーも常に横にある　バーの中に収っていればなどがあります。そういう機能システムの改善があれば
PDFに出来上がり文章を移行というのでしょうか　それで印刷もという高評価な感じです

無料のお試し期間もあり　延長も考えられていて　良いと思います。

☆運営方へ「pocket. Note pro」も同社のアプリなのでしょうか？類似なのでしょうか？違いましたら申し訳御座いません。
それも　お試し無料期間があるといいなと思いましたので。どう違うのかとかpro用とあえて　ありましたから。

### 2/5 — 使いにくい

*2021-05-08*

一回一回フォルダに戻らないと書いた内容が消えます
書きかけでうっかりスリープしたり、別アプリにいくと、また書き直す羽目になります

あと、元に戻す機能が、シートの変化？に対して行われるので、一筆で長い線など書くと消しゴムで消した方が圧倒的に早いです

### 2/5 — 修正要望

*2021-04-16*

リワードの中のメモの作成変更が何度やってもカウントされなくなったので修正してください

**Developer response:** 当社側で確認しましたが、今現在もメモの作成・変更のミッションのカウントは正しく行われております。また当社側では楽天ポイントの払い出し状況の確認ができるのですが、今も多くの方がメモの作成・変更のミッションで楽天ポイントを獲得されております。
メモの作成・変更のミッションの達成条件は1週間のうちに1日2回の実行を5日行うこととなっております。
ご確認の程、お願い致します。

### 1/5 — '

*2021-01-23*

Poor user guide not inthatve

### 2/5 — 使い勝手は良い　しかし

*2020-11-20*

設定か何かでバイブは切れないのか。
描くたびいちいち動くのは好きになれない
