awesome app with room for improvement
Hi there,
I love this app! I use it to take notes in class and to record the lectures. It’s awesome. And I love all the features, like the option for different papers, and the folders so I can organize my files. I especially love that the recording is easy to navigate and corresponds with the typed words. That part blows my mind and usually is a grabber for people like myself. There’s nothing worse than having to search endlessly through a recording. Being able to go to a specific section just by tapping the word makes the app!!
That said, I have some suggestions. I thought of them because when I try to convince my friends to get it, they ask about these things. For one, highlighters in different colors would be awesome! I also think it would be great if there was an outline function, like you see in Word. Class notes are often in outline format. This type of feature would help organize my notes and make it easier to stay on top of the lecture. The ability to italicize and underline words would also provide great organization to my writing. Finally, I would love to have different fonts, font color, and paper color. As a budding psychologist (I’m getting a doctorate in psychology) and a licensed art therapist, I know that color can enhance learning. It also makes notetaking more fun. This would improve the experience immensely. I recognize that all of these would essentially make the app eerily like Word, but that’s the idea. Most people would love to have such an app.
So those are my ideas. I apologize if my ideas are unrealitistic. It may be that many if not all are way too expensive or difficult, but I wouldn’t know because it’s not my area of expertise. I just wanted to share my opinion. Hope this helps.
Take care,
Catherine
