Become the best note-taking app, better than Goodnotes! Please read this

Hey Notewise Team,

I recently purchased the Lifetime Membership, and I wanted to share some feedback.

First of all: congratulations. In my opinion, Notewise is currently the best Goodnotes alternative available, especially on Android. The writing experience, split view, organization, and overall design are excellent.

I have three feature requests that I believe would significantly improve the app:

1. Customizable Toolbar

Please allow users to fully customize the toolbar by hiding tools they do not use.

Many users only need a few tools regularly. Being able to remove unused icons would create a cleaner interface, reduce distractions, and make more space available on smaller screens.

2. Automatic Cloud Backups (Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox)

Please add the ability to automatically back up the entire library to a cloud service such as Google Drive, OneDrive, or Dropbox.

Many users prefer owning their files independently from a proprietary cloud service. Automatic scheduled backups would greatly increase confidence in using Notewise for important notes and university work.

3. Direct Shape Editing After Auto Shape Recognition

When drawing a shape with the pen (circle, rectangle, triangle, etc.), please show the adjustment handles/control points immediately after the shape is recognized.

Currently, users need to select the shape again using the Lasso Tool before they can modify it. This adds unnecessary steps and slows down the workflow.

A much smoother experience would be:

- Draw the shape

- Shape is recognized

- Control points appear automatically

- User can instantly fine-tune the shape

This would make shape creation significantly faster and more intuitive.

Thank you for creating such a great app and for listening to user feedback. I truly believe Notewise has the potential to become the leading note-taking app on Android and beyond.

    +1 for Automatic Cloud Backups, virtually every other app has that and it would mean the world to everyone not having to worry for the backups

      Probably not gonna happen.. Notewise cloud back up is a huge part of their business model and income
