HOW to INTEGRATE NOTION and NOTABILITY to TAKE AWESOME NOTES! Note-taking Tips from a PhD Candidate

[@tarynpulver9251]

Seriously... when will Notion realize they’ll be #1 of all note taking apps if they just add HAND WRITTEN NOTES

[@Edameda_mmori]

Yes I really want this to happen ASAP

[@ignaciomunoz7621]

... and an offline mode that works

[@verenna961]

and more SIMPLE options to write like, why can't I put a space when I hit tab???😭

[@helenavasconcellos6725]

For real

[@varunprakash5]

2yrs since your comment and still not happened 😢 I really hope it happens soon

For those interested in how to integrate Notability notes into Notion so that you can update them without downloading a pdf every time and upload it to Notion, you can create a link to your note in Notability (under the share options). Then embed that link in your Notion note, and voila! Now when you make a change to the note, you can press update in Notability, and it will update in your Notion version as well. (Not sure if this was possible at the time this video was published.)

YES!! thank you!!

[@Gusburg]

THANK YOU omg it embeds so seamlessly I love you

[@Nisa212]

I have NEVER commented on a KZbin video before, but I had to thank you for this video! I just finished my masters in May and am starting a PhD program in a week, and was panicking. I was never very organized and my biggest dissertation fears are not around research and writing, but how to stay organized. I have Notability and just downloaded Notion earlier today. I am a former designer so I wanted to be able to use the super organization of Notion combined with the freeform ability to draw/mindmap in Notability. Your video has relieved my anxiety about starting my PhD program, and I now have a plan for how to organize both my written and drawn notes. Thank you so so SO very much!! I can't wait to practice with these tools; I feel much more confident about starting my program this fall! I'll be watching all your videos now!

[@JacquelineBeaulieu]

Nisa212 congrats on graduating from your Masters!!! I’m so glad you found the video helpful. More Notion, Notability, Good Notes, iPad, software type videos are coming that cater to us PhD students 😊. I agree- having the flexibility to create, draw, brainstorm in an app like Notability while using Notion to organize is an amazing combination. Especially when you know how to embed PDFs! I’m so glad you’ve joined our community and look forward to getting to know you more! Good luck with your first steps in the PhD! You’ve got this!

[@Aze876]

I'm in the same exact boat as you. The typical mountain of paper just wasn't going to work for this phase in life, so I'm looking around for productivity solutions that can help with the transition. Best of luck with your PhD!

[@JacquelineBeaulieu]

@@Aze876 My newest video might also help with the mountain of paper issue... it is about how to pull highlights from ebooks and articles (PDFs) into Notion for notetaking purposes. If you'd like to check it out, here's where you can find it kzbin.info/www/bejne/nnuzq359fpmsnaM

[@JacquelineBeaulieu]

In case this video also helps with the organization... I have a new video about how to pull highlights from ebooks and articles (PDFs) into Notion. Very helpful for notetaking! In case it interests you, here's where you can find it. Hope all is well with the transition to PhD studies! kzbin.info/www/bejne/nnuzq359fpmsnaM

[@lorenabezerradealmeida8512]

If I'm not wrong you can also select your handwritten notes on Notability with the select tool and then paste in Notion, this way you can see it without that grey squareish surrounding, and it wouldn't be a pdf as well

[@maxkwok5297]

@lorena. I tried to use the lasso tool to make copy and paste to notion. And it doesn’t work. What version of theses two apps are you using ? Is it only good notes can do such direct copy and paste ?

[@lorenabezerradealmeida8512]

@@maxkwok5297 I actually don't have an Ipad, but I watch a lot of videos about digital handwritten notes and in one of them the person did it.

[@customish]

Really nice video! Truly loved it! All the other comments took the words right off my mouth. I imagine a future where Notion and Notability work together to integrate Notability into notion, like creating templates with Notion, while having a "start writing" button, so we can seamlessly switch between Notion's super organization and helpfulness, with Notability's help of focus and interaction with the class. The perfect combo would be Notability and Notion for taking notes , while using Notion's amazing connection and features to help learn, recall and organize. With my overly optimistic views aside, loved this video.

[@JacquelineBeaulieu]

I couldn’t agree more. I love the focus that Notability provides through handwritten notes. And then the organization capabilities that Notion provides. Have you checked out Roam Research yet? I’m learning it and enjoying it as well.

[@customish]

Will definitely check out Rome Research!

I’m new to notion and have been using notability for note taking and bullet journal, your video give me an idea how I can change my way to use both, thanks for the tips!

[@DannyHatcherTech]

Thanks for sharing. I have a master notes database that has notes from lectures, meetings, ideas, events and revision notes. I use my flashcard database for revision so have a template in my notes database for those style notes. Then I link my notes database in templates of my areas so I can make a note anywhere and it be categorized by the relation to an area. So many ways to do this in Notion which is why I love the app.

[@JacquelineBeaulieu]

In case this is helpful to what you've described above, I just posted another Notion video about how to pull highlights from ebooks and articles (PDFs) into your Notion organizer.

@@JacquelineBeaulieu Thanks. I stopped doing that a couple months ago as I consume more video and podcast content now. 😁

[@JacquelineBeaulieu]

@@DannyHatcherTech In that case, check out the Airr app- you can annotate podcasts and yes... it can integrate with Notion

[@DannyHatcherTech]

@@JacquelineBeaulieu Yes I tried it but I take notes while listening so I found it actually slowed down my workflow.

[@Kate.Nkechi.O]

It is so challenging to find folks who are in Education creating content for other doctoral students. Thank you so much! Will be following you. Keep up the great work. We need you!

[@JacquelineBeaulieu]

That is so kind of you to say, Kate. It actually made me feel happy when I read your comment. I will keep doing my best, adding videos as I can. Perhaps others might also be willing to take up the challenge. My hope is that these resources will be especially helpful during a year when many of us are learning at a distance.

[@mixedmegamings]

I'm 42 seconds into the video and subscribing because I have always wanted to use notion and a paper planner, as well as do this and you're giving me vibes that THIS is how I'm meant to work for the next decade so... yeah!!

[@JacquelineBeaulieu]

Thank you! I’m all about the benefits of paper and digital combo. Both have their advantages and if you combine them… best of both worlds 😊

[@mixedmegamings]

@@JacquelineBeaulieu Exactly!! I've seen that writing things down and planning stuff out on paper works better for a lot of people. Personally, I don't like scattered organization, I want all my stuff to be in one place, which was the problem with the integration but I saw the video about notion and paper planner integration, I was overjoyed especially because the planner you recommend is exactly what I was looking for. Something functional but not too overdone, has to-do list areas and time slots (extra bonus is the half-hour increments instead of hour increments) allowing even more detailed planning if necessary. I also like crossing stuff off a paper planner. Being outside and crossing something off on your phone... totally not as cool as pulling out a planner and a pen(cil) and just crossing something off and being like DONE. It just gives a bit more happiness 😅😄

[@tanyamagana8212]

How do you get a new note to populate everytime a meeting template is creating? That would be perfect for my needs

[@JacquelineBeaulieu]

Glad you found it helpful, Bryan. Thanks for tuning in! Any ideas for future video topics?

[@music123music9]

instead of notobility its better to use OneNote notebook link so that you can even edit it. And from the live link you can even open the desktop app (if we open the link in desktop) or you can open the android or Ios app ( if you open the link in mobile) . Its way more better than the notability or using the embed command of the notion. And theres no need to export as pdf or anything. I use onenote to take notes and also handwritten notes or drawings. Where as I use the notion for task management with its good database support

[@augustinesoren1334]

Just brilliant. The moment I typed notability + notion your video popped up. Very encouraged. I would like to connect with you please let me how to go about.
