GoodNotes takes the win here, both on aesthetics and ease of access to important documents. These bookmarks can be accessed from within the original note, but you’ll need to find and access that note before you can view those bookmarks. One shortfall in Notability is the lack of visibility for bookmarked note pages. You can access the submenu for any note or subject by tapping and holding until the menu pops up. While Notability’s user interface is more streamlined, it also hides the option to share, duplicate, or trash your notes. That makes it perfect for users who prefer a more spartan or minimalist take on layout design. It’s a practical, efficient, and effective no-frills approach.

You can add dividers, which function as collapsible toggles, to help keep your workspace neat and tidy.Īside from creating new subjects for your notes and dividers to separate your subjects, there’s not much else to see here. The notes you’ve housed within those subjects are displayed as either a list or a grid on the right. Opening the app, you’ll see your subjects (folders) on the left sidebar. Grid view (shown) gives you an easy way to parse your notes while list view is more compact. #caption# Notability’s user interface is clean, simple, and straightforward.
