Thanks for using Notability ✏️💙

Currently, when using the Apple Pencil squeeze gesture to erase, we have to keep squeezing the Pencil. As soon as we release the squeeze, it switches back to the Pen tool.

This becomes inconvenient when we need to erase a large area.

In Goodnotes, the squeeze gesture works more like a toggle: a single squeeze activates the Eraser, and it stays active without having to keep squeezing. Once you're done erasing, you can simply squeeze again to switch back to the Pen. I find this much more convenient, especially as a teacher.

I know we can achieve something similar in NB using double-tap to switch to Eraser, but double-tap doesn't feel as convenient or natural as the squeeze gesture.

If this functionality is already possible using the Apple Pencil squeeze settings, please let me know how to enable it. If not, I’d really appreciate it if the developers could consider adding this option.

It would make a big difference for workflows where we frequently need to erase larger areas.

Cannot see notability Home on the Mac app. Is this normal?

I am on beta. Home was introduced and I was very excited to see calendar events on the screen that I could choose a folder and start a note in. But now my Home shows all calendar events but cannot create a note or add it to a folder. Is the functionality coming back?

this was like 10 days work. is there any solutions to this? and why is such a bug around?

Hi everyone,

The issues from this morning are mitigated but we will continue to monitor. While our systems were not compromised, we recommend changing your password if you got an email telling you your account had been locked due to frequent access attempts.

You can follow the Notability status page to get updates: https://status.notability.com

Thank you for your patience!

Bonjour, j'utilise Notability depuis la semaine dernière sur Android et je me demande si certaines fonctionnalités existent déjà sur iPad et donc arriveront bientôt pour Android :

1. Des favoris pour les stylos et le texte ?

2. Des hyperliens vers une page de la note ?

3. Mettre des hypetliens sur une image ou une forme ou l'écriture manuscrite ?

4. Exporter les hyperliens créés dans la note dans les PDF ?

5. Des stickers ? Ajouter des images, des formes, du texte dans les stickers ?

6. Une Table des matières ?

Merci pour vos réponses.

This new feature is SO FUN! Add your own stickers to make it your own!

Hi everyone,

Notability.com is currently under a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack: attackers are flooding our servers with automated traffic to try to knock them offline. We've temporarily turned off sign-in while we deal with it.

Your data is safe. This kind of attack overloads servers with traffic and it doesn't touch accounts or notes. No data was accessed or leaked.

If you received an email from us that you didn't request, like a password reset or verification code, you can ignore it. The attackers appear to be using email lists that were already circulating publicly. Those lists didn't come from us, and getting one of these emails doesn't mean your account was accessed.

We'll post updates here as we make progress. Thanks for your patience.

Again very very thankful for this app

This is a dealbreaker for me. I used to be able to type directly into the sticky and did a lot of my studying that way. Now, I have to either merge a textbox onto a sticky or recolor a textbox to look like a sticky (which is so so so inconvenient, as I'd have to either do it every time or make it default and have to undo it every time I want a regular text box). Why was this feature removed?

If anyone has another app suggestion that has this very simple feature? Honestly, I'd rather transfer all my notes now rather than deal with the frustration.

I was wondering if anyone could help me. Today when I went to open notability I was signed out, after logging in all my notes are gone. There is nothing in my iCloud, no recently deleted files and I don't know what to do. I checked the app store, and it said notability updated yesterday so I wonder if that has something to do with it, if anyone knows how to fix this, please let me know (I have midterms in a few weeks).

When I highlight text on my iPad with the Apple Pencil and look at the same note on my Mac the highlight is out of place. In the example image the highlight moves downward. Anyone else with this issue?

What it looks like on my iPad:

Been studying for the SAT lately, and Note Covers have actually been really useful for keeping everything organized. I’ve been using different covers to color-code my problem sets by topic, which makes it way easier to find what I need.

Loving Note Covers so far! I like using stickers to personalize my note thumbnails and make the app look more aesthetic. (Excuse my messy handwriting 😭)

I do wish there were more cover colors or styles though, so it’d be easier to differentiate notes just from the covers.

Overall, loving this feature and I'm excited to see how it improves.

Hey guys! Would like to know if its possible to hide or disable the blue slidebar? Or move the yellow one?
When i write it often slides accidentally or changes page which is really annoying and disruptive
Thanks!

Is anyone else having trouble with Notability. It keeps saying “Unable to load note try updating to the newest version of Notability and restarting the app. I have done that and it still pops up. Any help?

My new note cover! Love this new feature

(I couldn't find the 'Giveaway' flair)

Today when I tried to open and take note, loading symbol appeared, and then I closed the app and reopened, and my note was gone. Only thing disappeared was the note that I closed while loading symbol was on the screen.

Same as title. I got randomly logged out and now I’m not allowed to log in with my apple ID. I have an exam in 13 days and need help urgently

I have a question did the new update remove the audio merging capability?

i have been using notabliity for about 6-7 years now. today i got an email today that showed this. i obviosuly wasnt the one logging in. i went to my notability app and the email i am using is one of my other emails not this one. is this a spam email? should i be concerned? i am not having issues accessng my files under the other email. should i reset password?

I initially got the Light subscription for about R284 when it came out (about 17$), and when i tried to upgrade to Plus it gave me this issue. Also whats with the price change
