Thoughts here? Additionally, when adding documents to a study, the file system doesn’t appear to be maintained and it doesn’t seem like there is a way to make a file automatically get put in the same study.

I can’t search all the PDFs across my classes for a specific word. Downside of that is there is no universal search. I was thinking of making a study for each class I have every quarter. One issue I am having is that I can only search a specific document, or a “study”. I’ve been fiddling around with marginnote a bit and really like certain aspects of it but not others. be able to make notes that are pure text/don’t have associated PDFs.be able to add pages between PDF pages if wanted (or even better, add space between like on OneNote).have multiple highlighter and pen colors.be able to add outlines/bulleted text in chunks as well as fill in blanks with words easily (ie without clicking insert text box every time!).I need the app to have at least a 3 level organizational system (ie on OneNote I have a notebook for each quarter, a section for each class per quarter, and a note for every PDF/class day. I basically need a note taking app that allows for an organized way to keep track of multiple classes of notes every quarter (one day of lectures may utilize 5+ long PDFs). I do this to stay engaged in class and focus on the big topic points being covered. Professors upload PPTs or PDFs of PPTs before class and I put them in and add occasional bulleted notes (by typing), words to slides in specific spots, highlight, and occasionally use the pen feature.

These two issues make the app essentially unusable for me. And now it also doesn’t keep my scrolling location when going between note pages. I’ve tried several solution to this and it doesn’t work. When uploading PDFs, I cannot “search” them for a specific word. I used OneNote as my note taking app my entire first year but it has some major issues which can’t be overlooked.

Goodnote vs. marginnote
