Over 6 Years of Use, and Now Even Basic Features Are Broken for the Latest VersionI’ve been using Notability for more than 6 years, and I honestly can’t believe how bad it has become.

So buggy for yearsSo many small annoying bugs that take ages to get fixed. For example note folder structure not saving.

Bad experienceSadly canceled my subscription today after several years of use. I used notability to take notes, mostly handwritten on pdfs, and it was great at it. Now it’s pushing AI nonsense and Google Calendar on me. It’s honestly just not pleasant to use! Sakes alive, what a mess you’ve made!
