Ah, the simple joy of taking old-fashioned notes—and decorating the page with random doodles!
Handwriting to a text - the solution
5ham6le5
What often prevented me from leaving the house for travel or other away from my desk occassions with only my iPad Mini was that whatever notes I took would be in handwriting and so would remain less transferable later . Nebo's recognition for my handwriting and the simple circle to convent into text function means if I need to really input a lot ( and the iPad Mini is Apple Pencil first platform) I can write out the Paragraph or outline or email , circle it , convert it to text , copy and paste into the shared doc or email . It feels like a hack to only have the iPad Mini with me, and with Nebo I don't even need to worry - If I suddenly have actual work to finish, I can .
Simple and brilliant
aussenseiter
I’m writing again, as in not typing! The ease of exporting from cursive script on the screen to type (into Pages or Word) was crucial to me, and that has been working great. And I love how simple and easy it is to use. I also like the erase function — scribble over the word you want erased — such that you don’t have to select a specific erase tool...which can interrupt the flow. Occasionally a letter I’ve written (or part of one) will randomly erase itself, and I haven’t figured that one out yet, but it’s minor and only happened a few times. Many thanks.
The Best Stylus App Out There
Timbsy11
" I have tried several apps for electronic note taking. I found most to be clunky and only have some features I wanted. NEBO provides everything I need for note taking, PDF annotation and much more. Must specifically mention how fluid the writing action is, with no delay between stroke and page marking. The more you use it the better it gets. My handwriting is not the easiest to read, but NEBO translates beautifully. Cannot recommend anymore highly.
Developer Response
We're super happy to hear you're enjoying Nebo – and we're grateful you recommend it!Thanks also for letting us know what exactly you love about the app. Best wishes, Mila
