## Review summary

Overall sentiment is mixed: many praise the app’s intuitive design, rich notes-management features, and cross-device syncing, especially with Apple Pencil. However, repeated issues with data loss, crashes, and limited PDF functionality undermine reliability, while pricing and variable support responsiveness add frustration. Addressing data integrity, performance stability, and clarifying pricing could significantly improve user satisfaction.

- Powerful organization features: folders, notebooks, covers.
- Cross-device syncing keeps notes up to date across iPad and Mac.
- Strong Apple Pencil handwriting support and diverse input methods.
- Rich feature set including voice recording, PDF import/annotation and unlimited pages per notebook.

### Cons

- Frequent data loss: notes or files disappear, sometimes after syncing.
- Crashes and glitches that disrupt work and prevent saving.
- PDF import/export limitations or lack of editing/export options.
- Pricing frustration: paywalls for extra paper or pro upgrades and unclear pricing.
- Customer support responsiveness is slow or unhelpful.
