## Review summary

Users praise Notewise for its cross-device syncing and rich note-taking features, plus good handwriting support and regular updates. However, recurring problems temper enthusiasm: stability issues after updates (crashes, glitches, disappearing annotations), slower or inconsistent syncing across devices, and pricing concerns. Feature gaps like missing Layers, limited desktop/Mac support, and navigation/workflow quirks (no page flip, zoom behavior) are frequent requests. Some platform quirks are noted. Despite ongoing development, reliability and pricing remain the main sticking points for many users.

### Pros

- Cross-device syncing and cross-platform compatibility across iOS, Android, Samsung, and iPad
- Comprehensive feature set for notes, drawing, and editing
- Responsive and helpful customer support
- Strong handwriting support with useful pen options, dark mode, and lock objects
- Active development with regular updates and feature additions

### Cons

- Stability issues after updates (crashes, glitches, and disappearing annotations)
- High subscription price and cloud storage limits; many core features behind a paywall
- Missing essential features (Layers), limited desktop/Mac support, and navigation/workflow gaps (no page flip, zoom behavior)
- Slow or inconsistent syncing across devices, especially for shared notes
- Platform-specific quirks and uneven experience (e.g., stronger on Samsung; iPad experience not fully refined)
