I was really impressed by the handwriting-to-text feature, which could even decipher my messy scribblings.

Sharing notes takes just a few taps, but the lack of real-time collaboration is a shame.

Notability review

Notability is a note-taking app from Ginger Labs that was launched back in 2010.

Its available for iOS but not on Android.

When it came to features, there were no complicated tools or configs menus.

The handwriting-to-text and math equation features worked really well, even when tasked with converting my untidy scrawlings.

There were two handy notes available to me detailing how to get started and the tools available to me.

In summary, this isn’t an appropriate app for streamlined collaborating.

The tools and options are easy to master, and every element is satisfyingly uncomplicated.

As a result, this means collaborating with colleagues would be a long-winded process.

I also used it to create my own bullet journal.

I experimented with the different tools, exploring their different configs and assessing how well they performed.
