    Anyone using the pro version of Notepad+, would you recommend it or is there something better available? Plan to use it for note taking and occasional diagram.
    Seems a little expensive so I would like to hear views of users.

    Appreciate all replies.

    Okay then, so maybe nobody is using that app so what apps are you using with the pencil?
    Haven’t found an6 great use except marking up screenshots.

    I use Notability with the pencil for college and find it fantastic. I can import books/papers in PDF form, mark them up, create notes for class and keep it all organised. The big plus for me is that it compresses the size of PDFs I import by a huge margin, if I were to have all my PDFs on my ipad it would take up an awful lot of space.

    I've heard good things about goodnotes too, I just prefer the way notability organises itself. It's good value too I feel, €9.99 one time purchase.

    Opted for Nebo in the end. It has an offer of a calculator app , calculator2, included, all for €10. Impressed with equation editor for free.

    Notes, sketches, and drawings. Very responsive to pencil. Converts pencil notes to text with two taps, options to save in text, pdf or Word. Conversion to text is quite good even with my hand writing. Errors easily corrected. A spell checker option would be useful.

    Sketches are converted to straight lines, rectangles , circles etc etc.
    Happy with it so far.
