User Feedback

One user shared that they’ve tried many note apps (including Goodnotes, Notability, Noteshelf, Zinnia, Nebo, and Noteful). They feel Noteshelf isn’t perfect, but it’s the closest option—especially for the feel of the pencil and the natural handwriting experience.

They mentioned a few areas for improvement:

• More consistent loading of many bookmarks (sometimes reloading takes a few seconds).
• Preferred pencil UI color controls not appearing in a floating window.
• Improvements to the widget experience, including selecting which notebook and how the notebook image appears.

Overall, they praised the app as a “second brain” for journals, notes, diaries, and daily routines, and asked the team to keep up the good work.
