I’ve gotten a lot of messages recently about which note-taking app I use, and what pen setting I use in it. It’s a question I’ve been avoiding answering, but hopefully this video changes that.

yeah, I just use it too for planning with digital planner and journaling. I love how interactive it is, you can get the feel of writing with a pen that you can naturally erase, get images from google, Pinterest, internet anywhere without cutting from magazines or needing to print anything. It is amazing

I see what you're talking about. From the example provided, in GoodNotes 4, the Fountain Pen tool behaves like a "fixed" width nib fountain pen (a F, M, B, etc), which is commonly made of steel, whereas in GoodNotes 5, the Fountain Pen tool behaves like a flex nib, which varies the line width according to pressure. To get this behavior in a real fountain pen with such low pressure, the nib would need to be really high quality, like a gold nib or rhodium nib. So, without ever using the app, I assume they aspired to provide a more "real" fountain pen experience by emulating a high quality flex nib. Thinking of an improvement, maybe they could offer the option to select the "nib" type, fixed or flex, and I think this would solve the issue.

I started with Notability when I got my first iPad back in 2019, and during then I didn't actually like the fountain pen just as much as GoodNotes. Last year, when Notability switched to a subscription model, I went to GoodNotes 5 knowing I didn't want to use something I couldn't recommend people to use at all. The fountain pen in GoodNotes 5 has been fine for me for the most part, but with this I'm kinda intrigued by how GoodNotes 4 is. Lucky for me, I bought it during the transition period so I think it's in my purchases somewhere iirc. Yeah, I definitely think this fountain pen looks better, and I sure hope they bring that to GoodNotes 5 soon. 😁

​@@bjct5002 Yeah it's essentially a subscription model for anyone who plans on picking Notability up. I've pretty much gotten myself oriented well with GoodNotes 5 so far. I think after watching this video I ended up trying the brush pen and yeah it's a tad bit wonky if the sensitivity is up.. though in all honesty my notes aren't made in the same style and I've been sticking with the fountain pen for just about everything till this point. It's kind of a tit-for-tat thing now I guess as far as the brush pen goes. I've got good hopes that the team behind GoodNotes are on it. :)

@@jack_2612 The subscription model in my country i basically: you get 99% of the stuff for free and never need to pay anything. Or you can pay less than a 1€ a month to get automatic conversion from written math calculations into a typed font. So unless you do a whole lot of math and want it typed there is no reason to pay for Notability. Why is everyone acting like the subscription model is so important?

So many tweaks look different when zoomed in. I can not remember them all and there is no way to check what setting was used before. There is a community webpage where you can vote for the features that matter to you. The Goodnotes team often respond. Thanks for your inspiring videos.

I got an iPad from school (Game Development Major) and started using GoodNotes because I saw some of the things people were doing with it and absolutely fell in love. I wasn’t around when GoodNotes 4 was a thing but I remember thinking, “well that’s not how everyone else’s notes looked…” and I messed with a bunch of settings but just couldn’t replicate what I was seeing and thought it was just the way I write. After watching this video I realized that it was definitely something I was missing from a previous version. I hope they bring it back because I would love to use it. That being said, I have used GoodNotes 5 for a year and can’t put it down. I do everything in GoodNotes. I felt the passion in this video because honestly I have the same passion for this app, especially as a student. It feels so good to use for my homework and note taking that it makes me want to pick up my iPad and keep studying and keep working. Anything that makes work feel less like work is worth the money to me. I don’t remember how much I paid for the app but whatever it was, I got it for a steal.

This is not the latest Apple iPad, but it is faster than I thought. It has a great screen and it holds a charge pretty well kzbin.infoUgkxhcEDB3r-OJ3_X5hQzr7k1ZofTQy1ao_U . I was concerned that it would not be powerful enough because I have several older iPads that are slow and cannot update to the latest software. But this 10th Gen has the speed and power. I do not use it for video editing, so having an M2 processor is not necessary for me. This iPad model has an A14 processor. So far so good. Glad I bought it. It helps having a larger screen compared to my Apple phone.

The handwriting over there is JITTERY. there is no auto-smoothening like you mentioned also in your previous video comparison. I even made a reddit post and reached out to notability devs still the problem was not fixed. seems it is jittery with tempered glass but even then woodnotes is fine bcz it has that auto-smoothening like in Procreate STREAMLINING feature.

I agree with you 100% I too loved the app for the writing feature because it felt smoother than Notabillty. Its actually where I started journaling all the way up until its upgrade. I personally thought it was because I had the 2018 12inch ipad pro so I bought the 2021 m1 just to find out if was in the software. Unfortunately I couldn't get past it so now I'm using Noteshelf which is ok but preferred Goodnotes 4 better.

I've struggled with the pressure sensitivity too, but I think I've figured it out tho. I use it with the sharpness and pressure at 0%. I just wish goodnotes can bring in the tool bar into the zoom window like notability and I'll be set. It's still my preferred app, but it definitely would make note taking a whole lot better with that feature.

The main reason I haven’t switched to Goodnotes 5 is the pen. Until then notability will be best. The only thing notability needs is to go back to a paid version not a subscription and needs to add something like elements.

Great Video! I love GoodNotes and use it as my go-to note taking app. There’s a new update which let’s you customise the fountain pen pressure sensitivity and tip sharpness. Maybe you should give that a try. I only found GoodNotes after GoodNotes 5, but I think it should help with the exaggerated sharp fountain pen.

Great video! Totally agree with the writing feel. I turned down the pressure sensitivity to the lowest on Goodnotes5 and that seems to be almost perfect.

I didn’t try GoodNote 4 before but comparing it to Notability I kinda got your point. I always feel my writing experience better there but I also prefer GoodNote!. So maybe that’s your feelings also when you compare both versions 4 & 5.

I use the iPad to teach around 8 hours a day. For some reason on Goodnotes 5, it feels a bit harder to write. Almost as if I need to add more pressure to write as I did in Goodnotes 4. I can confirm that this is the case because I have worn out several nibs on Goodnotes 5. I have been using Noteful for writing at the moment but the app is not as robust as goodnotes 5. Sadly, I cannot use GoodNotes 4 for projecting notes because I need some of the Goodnotes 5 features.

Hi, I feel the same thing. In 2015 i had ipad Mini and was using Goodnotes. I love the experience but I kind of moved away from apple from 2017 and just came back to the community this year. I download the app because I remember how I loved it before…but it really “feels” different now (I am using Ipad Pro now) YOU made me realize what felt wrong..and I couldn’t agree more with what you said. I wish they could give the experience back…I am still using goodnotes 5 though, Just because I really don’t know how to have goodnotes 4 in my ipad.

What about the notes app that’s pre-installed on all apple devices?😅. It’s quite different from this one you’re showing but I have been using it for a while for note-taking, it’s free and I think it’s pretty good. What are your thoughts?
