    Sorry everyone, I made a mistake at 8:38, GoodNotes 5 does, in fact, have vertical scrolling. It can be switched on in the settings.

All kidding aside, your videos represent the true ‘Gold Standard’ of reviews. They are creative and inspiring. Thank you.

    I’m glad you mentioned your writing experience in detail. The other videos I watched preferred Notability in that regard because they said it was like writing on paper, implying that Goodnotes wasn’t as natural as Notability. So your comment that writing on Goodnotes “was a million times better than paper” quickly captured my attention. Very nice video overall. I’m also thinking of getting both apps and discovering my own study method with them.

    • @SamuelSuresh

    Two years ago, I bought my 2nd gen 256 gig 12.9 inch iPad Pro. I had previous experience with the iPad Pro, so I was comfortable with spending $1,000. What I didn’t know was that it was legit going to change my life. The iPad Pro is a perfect device for note taking, video/photo editing, drawing, movie watching, FaceTiming, texting, etc. I have never been more impressed and satisfied with a product. I also get bored of new things very easily, but after two years, I have yet to get bored of my iPad Pro. If you are thinking about getting one but are hesitant because of the price, trust me when I say it will buy you time, effort, and there’s nothing else like it. Great video!

    I agree about writing in GoodNotes: it’s better for the experience of writing, but if I may suggest a use case for Notability: syncing recorded talks, lectures, meetings-in person and online-with writing. It’s surprisingly useful to click on something you wrote and have Notability go to that part of the recording so you can listen while reviewing your notes in context. Its also useful to watch your writing light up as you listen along with the recording.

    Although I admit Notability has some nice features, I can't live without a decent folder system that Goodnotes has. Only having dividers and one layer of folders doesn't cut it for me: I need to be able to split things into different areas of my life, different years, different semesters, different classes, different subjects, and really anything else. Only Goodnotes does this for me.

It was the beginning of a new stage of my life, it improved my grades and my level of concentration and my physical health. In an induction activity I discovered that my 🎒 weighed 4 kilos. That's when I decided to look for other options. In my experience Notability it is superior as it has the option to record and you can study that way and complement your own notes. Your writing was recorded as three milliseconds faster. Goodnotes 5 surpassed all that in this version.

    This was the video that got me thinking about buying an iPad Pro for notetaking this semester. I got the 12.9 2020 model with GoodNotes 5. Gotta say I have never had a better time writing notes down than when I started using GoodNotes. I use it for class, for homework, and even to story my D&D Character sheets and papers! My favorite feature by far is the "Scan Document" feature. It's THE BEST I've seen out of ANY app so far.

    After watching loads of videos, I have finally gotten myself an answer. I am going to purchase both apps. I'm a postgraduate medical student and I really need the structure of Notability but at the same time, the versatility of Good Notes. Thanks again!

    Awesome video, I’m an engineering student and this really helped me decide on which app to download. Went for good notes based on the fact that diagrams are easier to draw. Also, my handwriting is like hieroglyphics and I myself cant understand myself sometimes. So it seems like good notes will help me on that front too.

    This is by far the best comparison/contrast between these two apps that I've found, and yes, I also use both. I absolutely agree about the hand writing experience in Goodnotes--it actually makes me *love* practicing writing kanji in Japanese. OTOH I tend to use Notability in situations where I''ll be typing instead of writing by hand. Thanks for the great video!

  • @meshellesang
    @meshellesang 4 года назад +10

    One thing that he didn’t mention that I love about notability, is that you can open two documents at once in notability and get a side by side view. A feature I find quite useful if I have the textbook and my notes in notability.

    @BenRajan Год назад +3

    I don't know why I didn't write this 4 years ago. One thing to note about the price is that Notability is subscription based only, while GoodNotes has a subscription option as well as a one time payment option. This was my deciding factor between the two.

  • @pipipipipipipipipipipipipipib

    You should consider creating short video classes from beginners to advanced for people like myself who may feel overwhelmed by how to use these apps with all of their abundance of features. You tend to feel like you’re not utilizing them to their full potential. You have a way of explaining your thoughts very clearly. Kudos to your channel!

I am planning to get an iPad Pro primarily for note taking in college but the pros and cons around these two apps have been driving me crazy. The idea you just shared probably has saved me a year or more to come up with the best possible method for note taking myself. Thank you!

      Transport and Communication
      Transport facilitates trade and commerce by carrying goods from the areas of production to that of consumption. Goods from the areas that have surplus are shifted to those areas which are deficient in those items. Movement of people from one place to another place in search of job, education and emergency through transport facility. Communication keeps usinformed about the world’s events and trends. It brings in positive changes in the life of the people and thereby enhancing their economic conditions.
      • Natural resources, economic activities and markets are rarely found in one place. Transport, communication and trade establish links between producing centres and consuming centres.
      • The system of mass production and exchange is complex.Each region produces the items for which it is best suited. Trade or the exchange of such commodities relies on transportation and communication.
      • Likewise, the high living standards and quality of life depend on efficient transportation, communications and trade.
      • In earlier days, the means of transport and communication were the same. But today both have acquired distinct and specialised forms. Transport provides the network o f links and carriers through which trade takes place.

    Okay so I get Ali Abdaal vibes from this initially but you’re also different in the way you present the info which is so satisfying to watch. Annnnd while Ali convinced me I needed a iPad pro with pencil for uni, you just convinced me to get goodnotes (because the notability writing experience also bothers me and I don’t like the way my writing looks on it haha)
    Also omg you go to UWS, I’m amazed to find an Aussie lifestyle/uni/tech youtuber!

  • @KaeKirk
    @KaeKirk 5 лет назад +55

    LOL, I do the exact same thing! I've found that I've used both interchangeably and don't have the heart to delete one. So I use Notability for PDF's and Books, while GoodNotes 5 for Note taking and creative journaling.
