Why is your iPad battery draining fast and how to fix it? As an iPad user, you might have experienced a sudden decline in your device’s battery life. For some, this …

The basic iPad models, 9th and 10th generations, support the 1st generation Apple Pencil. All other iPad models (mini, Air, and Pro) will support the 2nd generation Apple Pencil if they are not an older iPad model (see the compatibility chart to be sure)

GoodNotes is favored for its organized notes, printing, handwritten note-taking, PDF markup, journaling, and user-friendly PDF importing, while OneNote is the go-to choice for those needing seamless syncing between iPads and Windows devices.

GoodNotes is often regarded as the better option for note-taking, particularly for users within the Apple ecosystem.

Despite the advantages of both GoodNotes and OneNote, some users prefer alternative options like Notability, Noteshelf, Nebo, Noteful, and other top note taking apps for iPad (we reviewed 25 of them).

However, there are some drawbacks to using OneNote for iPad. The app lacks certain features that its desktop counterpart has, such as more advanced PDF handling, multimedia file support, and simultaneous audio recording while writing notes.

GoodNotes utilizes whatever Native or custom fonts you have on your iPad…you can simply add new Fonts to GoodNotes on your iPad through an app like iFont or AnyFont. IFont is a font app for iOS and can be found on the official Apple app store. It’s free.

Higher-priced alternatives, such as Paperlike iPad Screen Protector, may have distinct features (texture) but might not always be worth the extra cost (this depends on whether you’re a graphic designer/artist, a student taking notes, or just a casual ipad + apple pencil user.

Yes, it gives you resistance for your iPad, makes handwriting legible, and drawing much easier… but is it worth it? I found that if you’re a graphic designer or a student in college, you’ll benefit from the Paperlike.. but for casual users, it may not be worth the $45 price tag depending on your level of use and budget… especially considering there’s several iPad screen protectors (linkkkk here) that work similar to the Paperlike for nearly one third the cost.
