YouTube Notetaker vs Nebo

Super useful for watching educational or information-heavy videos on Youtube. Keeps me from having to juggle between the video and a notes tab, and makes the viewing experience seamless and distraction-free!

Makes it so easy to take down notes while watching educational videos! Been using it to jot down important points while doing John Green's crash courses! Absolute gem.

Great tool to keep track of things! I like that all my notes are saved in one place and it helps me focus on the video.

What frustrates me the most about Nebo is that it could be fixed completely with a couple of toggle switches to disable the smart features if the user isn’t fussed about them. Just give me a blank page which does nothing more than display exactly what I’ve chosen to write or draw on it. That would, in my mind, make it the best note-taking app out there. “Just use a more basic note-taking app,” you may scream. I shouldn’t have to, I’m afraid. I’m willing to put money into the pockets of developers who recognise the simple features that matter, and as noted earlier, Nebo has, ironically, nailed a few of those. The fact it has such incredible smart features should be the icing on the cake – not a hindrance. You are so close with this, Nebo. But, sometimes, you can be too clever.

MyScript Nebo does some unique tricks, such as reflowing handwriting, mixed text/handwriting operation and equation recognition. And when it's good, it's very, very good.

I’ve been looking for a replacement for apple’s notes app and google docs that wasn’t word, and luckily, I came upon this beautiful, easy to use app. This is, hands down, the best app to use if you want to convert your handwriting into typed format. It works very well with my handwriting and is easy to edit and learn different shortcuts for your writing. I’m also glad it has an option to create a free form note, where I use it to brainstorm ideas, writing floating where ever I want it to be. You can organize your notes in collections and notebooks, which is very handy and a feature I needed. Even though this will become my main writing app, there’s only one small thing that would make it even better... a night/dark theme. Maybe I just haven’t found it yet, or it’s not there, but I would love to write in whatever color I like on whatever colored paper I like. So far it has the option to change writing color, just not paper. If you had the option to change the color of paper, there wouldn’t even be a need to have color themes- the writer could just change their paper and pen to whatever color they needed and voilà! Thanks :)
