The program is for pretexts, but it is missing something very important, which is (photography Scanner) so that the student can take pictures of the papers and turn them into a clear Scanner paper. The feature is available in Notability with apple , but unfortunately I did not notice that one of the Samsung programs uses this feature. As a university student without this feature, I will not be able to work with papers without (photographing scanner). I hope I will find that later

Thank you for highlighting the need for a photography scanner feature. We understand its value for students and are considering incorporating it into future updates. Stay tuned for improvements, and thank you for your feedback.

It's great, I came from Flexcil to this because it had many features I wanted but i have 2 complaints. First, the favourite tools bar is a bit janky, I wish it was more adjustable, maybe controlling its direction (horizontal/vertical) without having to drag it around. Also it would be nice to have the option to have it beside or under the non-favourite tools bar. Second, I wish we could import a pdf file into an infinite canvas, like in microsoft onenote, so we can write outside the content.

Great app for note taking, except that I have one big gripe with it, the shape recognition in the pen is awful, everytime I try to draw an ellipse shape to circle a word it always converts it into some random polygonal shape. Takes multiple tries to get it right and it can get very annoying when it gets it wrong even when you drew a perfect ellipse than it will even draw. Also, there is some lagginess when you try to load a file with more than 50 pages.
