App-tivating upgrades
I’ve gotta give props to these notetaking apps; they are always upping their game, and that’s just plain awesome. 💯
But let's be real: Keeping up with all the latest features and upgrades in each app can be quite the challenge.
The good news? I've got your back. Take a look:
- Apple Notes. iOS 17 brought some seriously cool upgrades to Apple Notes. Dive into the latest features and pro tips with a little help from Paperlike’s very own João in our latest YouTube video. (Spoiler alert: PDF support, a new Crayon tool, linked notes, and more!)
- Notability. The audio recording in this app was already one of the best available, but now Notability has audio transcription. It automatically transcribes any recording, making it easy to copy/paste the important parts directly into your notes.
- Goodnotes. The Goodnotes community has spoken, and the developers listened. They've introduced a highly requested feature: the Ruler. It's a game-changer, especially for those who've been eagerly waiting for it.
With these note-able (wink wink) upgrades, you're all set to boost your productivity, creativity, and organization.
