Create problem sets and study with “Learned” and “Not Yet”, all within your note app. With Uni:Note, you can review alongside your original notes and study problem sets in the companion app Uni:Note Pocket by importing a backup. Uni:Note is a handwriting app for iPad with a simple, ad-free interface that lets you write as you would in a paper notebook. Designed under the guidance of a current university student, it focuses on being easy to use in class. Along with Apple Pencil handwriting, it supports writing on images and PDFs, vertical notebooks, and multiple windows. Keep taking notes while working with class handouts and PDF materials. Use the notes you write for review. Study Assistant (AI) supports Circle to Solve, problem set generation, and AI Summary. You can also create and edit problem sets yourself. Recording and real-time transcription are also supported. Take notes while recording a class, then use AI Summary to summarize the transcription. Customize the navigation bar and palette to suit the tools you use most. ■Key Features • Create and edit problem sets with handwriting, the keyboard, pasted text, or TSV/CSV files • AI problem set generation from your notes • Study with “Learned” and “Not Yet”, resume where you left off, and shuffle questions • Review with your original notes displayed alongside • Study problem sets imported from a backup in Uni:Note Pocket • Handwriting with Apple Pencil • Writing on images and PDFs • Vertical notebooks and multiple windows • Recording and real-time transcription • AI Summary and Circle to Solve • Sticky Marker • Ruler, Move Selection • Undo and Redo for moves and changes to shapes, pasted images and PDFs, and sticky notes, plus lines drawn with the ruler • Open the Button Guide with “?” (from the “…” menu in a notebook) • Pomodoro timer • Navigation bar and palette customization • Export PDF • Backup and restore ■About Privacy Uni:Note uses in-app identifiers that do not directly identify you to manage your AI Balance and purchase status. It also collects diagnostic information, such as crash logs when the app crashes, to investigate issues. When you use AI features, data needed for processing, such as selected note content and transcriptions, is sent to an AI service to generate answers, problem sets, summaries, and similar output. Routine diagnostic information does not include information that directly identifies you or the contents of notes, audio, transcriptions, or attachments. The information collected is used to provide AI features, manage their use, and improve app quality. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Uni at every 5 days against 手書きノート's every 5 months. 手書きノート's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
