I think Goodnotes also syncs the recording and the writing. Btw, I love Apple Notes, it's great, but if only it was possible to create notebooks. That's the thing forces me to buy other apps.

Yeah I think you’re right about Goodnotes. I unfortunately learned that after making the video but thank you for helping more people to know that! For me, the ability to keep making folders in folders allows me to not really need specific notebooks, but I understand that for some people folders aren’t good enough. Thanks for sharing!

Also with goodnote one time purchase you buy the version so when goodnote 7 comes out you will probably have to pay again if you use one time purchase that was at least how it was from 5 to 6
@Graf-XTechReviewsАй бұрын
Yeah I believe that is the case as well
@smullis7Ай бұрын
The fact that they charged again going from 5 to 6 is what turned me off to Good Notes. I still have 5 and use it, but really want to transition to Notes and be done with payments.

Yeah a good thing with Apple notes is that they don’t require any extra payments and that is a big plus

I completely agree. Apple notes for me. But my needs are not as full featured as some of the other apps offer. I felt this was an excellent review! I definitely learned a lot!

I’m glad you found this review informative! Yeah it’s kinda weird, Apple Notes seems like in some ways it’s not as full featured, but in other ways, it seems way more featured! But I guess that can also be the Apple way😂

With the expected note features coming with the IPAD 18 update, it is difficult to consider paying for a note-taking app. Also, I would like to draw attention to an app called Audio Note. It allows you to take Audio and as you take notes, it time stamps the written note to the audio, making it easy to refer back to what was being said at the time you wrote the note. I have used this app for many years when I need to use take notes during a lecture/meeting.
@Graf-XTechReviewsАй бұрын
Yeah I agree, at least for me, I don’t need any other note-taking app. Audio Note sounds interesting! I’ll check it out, if it seems really interesting I might make a part 2 with that app included!

Hello kind of a side question i getting back to school in a few weeks and i have been thinking of getting a new ipad currently confused on which to get the ipad 10 or the ipad air 5 they mostly seem the same with a few minor improvements (minor for me as i dont really need them) except for the price so is it worth paying more for the air?
@Graf-XTechReviews29 күн бұрын
I would say if you don’t really need the features of the new Apple Pencil Pro, then it’s probably not worth it. The screen is better on the Air but not by a lot and for school tasks, the chip difference shouldn’t matter. What I will say is, you may want to look for a used iPad Pro (like 2018-2020) they will be around that price but give you ProMotion (and Apple Pencil 2nd gen support which is better than what the iPad 10 supports and it’s much cheaper to find used than an Apple Pencil Pro). So that would be my recommendation, but if you have to go for new, then probably iPad 10.

The only problem with Apple notes/Freeform is how laggy it becomes as you fill up one note with a lot of pen strokes. There are workarounds, sure, but those don't work well on either app.

Yeah I don’t usually have too many issues with that, but I do know what you’re saying, it can become an issue if you have a lot of handwriting.

Have you had any overheating or things like that with extended use?

If you write in GoodNotes with the Magic Keyboard, you can't even change the font or the text size. Incredible. Unacceptable. The app is great, but this absolutely needs to be improved because it's ridiculous. I would have liked it if, in your test, you had used both the Magic Keyboard and the Pencil simultaneously. You would have seen that, in this case, even Apple Notes performs very poorly.
@Graf-XTechReviewsАй бұрын
I can look into making a follow up video showing some of these apps with the Magic Keyboard as well, I can totally see how that’d be helpful. It wasn’t my biggest focus in this video, but I totally see what you mean. In my opinion, however, I think Apple notes handles typed text fairly well and it gives multiple methods for adding text in. I’m just curious, what don’t you like about how it adds text?
@zefiro8393Ай бұрын
@@Graf-XTechReviews Of course, your video is very interesting. Mine was a suggestion, not a critique. For example, in Notes, try to write a simple to-do list with the keyboard. Then, take the Pencil and try to write something next to (not below) that list (a parenthesis, a handwritten note, anything). Can you do it? I can't. It seems that where you write with the keyboard, you can't use the Pencil. Maybe it's just me being clumsy, but I find it absurd. In GoodNotes, at least for this, there are no problems.

If anyone wants to use GoodNotes because its also on android, look at the reviews, the android version doesnt sound as good, the reviews turned me off from it.

(this happens to me alot with alot of items, I have a very inventive mind that tends to think stuff up that doesnt exist, this ranges from apps, games and even clothing and furniture, i cant possible make all that myself though lol) I'll have to try alot of apps people aren't aware off, or aren't using and shift through them all and see which ones fit my needs, but I have a feeling its doomed.
