HiReally bad and laggy i hate it and i hate u and moyo

A pile of garbage is more usefulMy computer never syncs my notes across and that makes this app as useful as a shallow mound of excrement. I tried uploading the one note files to one drive and apparently this app “can’t open that section”. Go eff yourself microslop.

Good appVery good app, handy and convenient.

Drawing in one noteI love this app. It’s working great for me and for our company and many other people that I know the only thing that could really improve like the other apps have like Notability when you start drawing shape shapes and straight lines and squares and circles when you hold it when you draw even uneven…

Nice AppVery good app
