best app so far, literally the best app in my phone, i just feel safe when i open it, I feel safe that any weird thing i want my notes app to do as a multi language learner, this app will fulfill it, from drawing over the text to freely transforming the text shape, size and ratio and much more, it's just a really fun place to be in.

Was good until it wasnt. I've been using notewise for about a year now, it's was a great option to take notes and store them online, however a recent update has ruined the app entirely for me. Since the most recent update, my files take about 5 hours to sync, making the app pretty much useless. My total storage of cloud files is about 4gb and my Internet is about 1gb/s on fiber. 5 hours is unacceptable.

cool features, but palm rejection is so bad, it's unusable. my page kept scrolling as I was writing, I tried adjusting several settings. i guess I could have locked the page each time, but that would have been annoying when taking notes in class, and I should have to when this isn't a problem on other apps. I'm pretty disappointed because I was looking for a notetaking app with better features than just samsumg notes. i may return if they significantly improve palm rejection.
