i love this app. Free premium for ads, convenient, and flexible. Good job! Things that may have to be improved are the fonts when you it doesn't generate after exporting, then some touch sensitivity. I'm looking forward for more things to improve because I want this app to be one of the best note taking app.

This tool is excellent for taking notes; however, to provide a more comprehensive solution, it would be beneficial to include text formatting features such as headings, titles, subtitles, bold, italics, and underlining. Additionally, the text box requires increased flexibility, as the current layout offers limited space for adjustments.

필기할 때 주로 필기체로 쓰다 보니 끊지 않고 이어서 작성하는 경우가 많습니다. 하지만 이렇게 이어서 작성하는 경우, 대개 필기 중이던 부분이 갑자기 사라집니다. 조속한 해결 부탁드립니다.
