Awesome, feature filled

Perfect for journaling.

Best Versatile Note Taking App

If you’ve used other graphic or note apps you’ll find ZoomNotes your best option out there with layers and more editing options than another note app. You can use it as simple or as complex as your skill takes you. Great support from the developer as well. Amazing value for the full version price.

Requires improvement

It frequently crashes and requires improvement.

I wish more apps were like this

With every option imaginable, there will be a learning curve. But once you lock down a basic workflow, it can be a powerful tool.

What can’t this app do?

Exceptional app. Literally capable of anything you can think of, with the best features of all the major note taking apps in one place. Learning curve is steep but worth it!
