How do I access Notability Cloud?
Starlit6722
So, my brother has Notability Cloud on and he keeps trying to share a note with me, although he can’t. Why? Well, even after updating the app, my app doesn’t think I have updated it and I just can’t use the Notability app with him. This made me a little upset, but please tell me how to access Notability Cloud. Thank you!
Landscape Writing Paper
F8 C
I love Notability, it has helped me tremendously as a student, but I have one suggestion. Having the option to change the page into either landscape or portrait would be amazing. Having to write my notes, especially long tables, in the default portrait mode has been giving me a hard time and it is the only reason this app didn’t get my 5 star rating. I hope that this suggestion is seen and is taken into consideration.
Great app, bad toolbar
Yeishaad
App is fantastic, however can you all revert to the previous toolbar or change the UI of this new one again? This current toolbar is in the way and the screen feels more clogged than anything else right now.
• Added Arabic and Hebrew support with full right-to-left layout.
• Fixed unwanted scrolling when you return to Notability on iOS 27.
• A clearer Learn usage meter and more reliable Quizzes.
• Finish My Notes appears only on notes you haven't completed.
• Fixed bugs with text editing, shape rotation, and PDFs in dark mode.
Thanks for using Notability.
