User Reviews

NotaryAct is widely praised for saving time, enabling fast data capture via ID scanning, and offering a secure, paperless journal with strong support. Users also value easy searchability and cross-device convenience. Common drawbacks center on pricing/trial clarity, missing iPad app support, and onboarding/purchasing friction. Overall, it’s seen as a key time-saver and professional tool for mobile notaries, with room to improve pricing transparency and multi-device support.

Pros

ID/license scanning auto-populates fields, reducing handwriting and errors and speeding up the process.
Digital, portable journal stored on device with cloud backups for secure, permanent records (no need for paper).
Excellent customer support and willingness to provide training and assistance.
Strong searchability and organization of past entries, making it easy to retrieve records.

Cons

Pricing and trial information are unclear or criticized (desire for a longer or clearer trial and visible subscription pricing).
Lack of a dedicated iPad app / insufficient iPad-specific support noted by users who primarily work on iPad.
Onboarding and purchasing flow can be confusing or buggy (account creation issues and unclear purchasing process).

I’m in Alaska and I’m a very busy Mobile Notary. I use this app all the time. It’s the only journal I use. I’m able to take photos of the signer. Take photo of their ID. Take a photo of their thumbprint and it’s all saved right there. I’m able to go back and search really easily. I love it. This is a critical piece of my business.

The trial should be 5 entrys period. The 14 day thing is dumb when you first start out. I signed up the day my commission started on paper but I didn’t start till 2 months later not knowing it took the paperwork that long. So now my trial is up and I have zero journal entries. I will check out the other ejournal that I signed up for today to see if I like it and subscribe if so.

I’ve been using this app since COVID, it has eliminated the need for a paper journal at the point of signing, and confirms the ID is legit. I love this feature!!
