Hi.
Are there any similar alternatives to Notewise or Goodnotes? It’s for taking notes on a tablet.
Thank you

I took a look at Logseq, and probably switching from Obsidian to that.

Both are great if you’ve got a keyboard or can use one, but they aren’t quite the same usecase as GoodNotes. GoodNotes is more a PDF annotation software but with bell and whistles added in that make it more functional as a digital notebook, with document scanning and web collaboration tacked on as well.
I’ve been looking for a suitable replacement for 3 years but everything I’ve tried has been short of the mark.

Why do you want to give up Obsidian?

Actually never did, tried Logseq and found that the sweet spot of being to lazy and having what I need in obsidian made me stick with it

What’s with the weird android permissions it needs? Full file access?

You can see a discussion here - basically handicapped by Android permissions until further work is done

Interesting, hope they can figure something out.

RNote and Xournal++ are both pretty good and modern, RNote is the most modern.

It doesn’t really have any of the fancy bells and whistles, but if you want a notes app that allows handwriting, I use Xournal++

Your question just solved an issue that has been keeping me on iOS. I use GoodNotes at work as a digital replacement for a thick clipboard of paperwork. I didn’t know that it was available on Android or had even heard of Notewise. Thank you!
As for answering your question, not that I had found over the last 3 years. At least on Android or iOS. When I ask online I’m always pointed towards Obsidian or LogSeq, which while they are great if you sit at a desk, aren’t the same use case as GoodNotes. They are more for Markdown formatted text file notes. Looks like there’s a few options now if you want to start running a Linux tablet though.
Thanks again!
No problem. Thank you too :D
