I love it, but there needs to be basic things that need tweaking, like in PDFs, there is no back button (if you’ve pressed a link accidentally and you have no idea what page you were reading / working on, or the highlighter, which is gorgeous like the Apple Original tool, but cannot control opacity (at least none that I can obviously find in their controls), and the selection of items like stickers are rather finicky. Anyway, I purchased this app because it IS promising. I was hoping it would be a better version of liquid Text, better aesthetically. Anyways, I’ll keep an eye out for improvements.
Elegant and Appealing
Jon San
I love this app. I purchased it after viewing the exquisite tutorial videos on the developers’ website and listening to a podcast interview with the user interface designer. I believe that the designer and the developer share a vision of what this sort of app ought to be and are making rapid progress toward their goals. I am not an elegant person but I appreciate quality tools. In this app I haul all my research onto my space and start writing on my screen with my Apple Pencil. If I need anything the app makes it easy to bring it to the workspace. This is a very intimate way to interact with the iPad and releases a lot of inhibitions I feel when using a keyboard and facing a blank screen. I love that I can tilt the “paper” while I write. This feature really helps an old left-handed scrawler like me. The latest update also offers left-handlers the option of moving the drawer and tools to the right side of the screen. Defter Notes helps me to do serious work in a way that I find appealing. I look forward to seeing where the developers take it, and they appear to be moving quickly. I offer an enthusiastic endorsement.
My New Research Stash

I really like how the interface gets out your way on this app, I feel like I am working on desk with an infinite filing cabinet. This app is like a well thought out hybrid of Sling Notes (sadly no longer available) and Corkulous.The ability to export any asset and/or complete note space to PDF is fantastic. The stacking feature is great for page collections and PDFs imported from my Concepts, GoodNotes and Notability notebooks and the web, allowing specific collection and reorganization in a free-form way. Looking forward to options for “bring your own” external cloud backup and syncing. The fact this doesn’t require use of a forced cloud service like Muse, is what makes this program a gem and makes me feel in control of my data, without a subscription. I hope the developers continue to improve this app as it could easily become the next “Must Have” for iPad.
Good idea, poor execution. Wasted money and huge disappointment.
Em Reviews Tech
The idea of this app is interesting. I like the idea of having an open canvas and the ability to see notes visually. The stacks are appealing for PDFs. It allows the user to see pages of PDFs side by side. The app also offers various types of paper, including dot grid, lined, and squared grid. It even allows for changing the colors of the paper and dots! With that said, I do not find this app to be useful. The user experience is not good. Zooming in to see the PDF pages is dizzying. PDFs cannot be resized, which makes the zoom function necessary. But zooming in is frustrating. The export function is limited to one object; it’s not for each space. Handwritten text cannot be resized. The canvas can’t be written on, only the documents can. There is currently no support for opening multiple instances of the app. And OCR is not available. If you want a visual canvas, I would pass on this app. HARD pass. Instead, try Concepts or even Muse. Both are more polished apps than this. And, don’t bother trying this app out. The refund policy is unfair. $20 wasted.
