If the limitations stay I won't be moving to 9.3.
From what I understand those limitations aren't set in stone yet for the final release. We will just have to wait and see. For all we know the UI control limitation could be a bug.
Well the limitation of the Apple Pencil has remained in beta 2 also. The prevailing thought is that it's a feature lock and not a bug at this point in time.
Well will be holding onto 9.2 if 9.3 stays with this then tooYes. The official 9.2.1 is all fine and dandy
We will know if the next few betas Are the same
I use the stylus navigation. My pro is going back and surface book will be staying. I spent more having an ipp and a Windows laptop than surface book. Unfornately I must have windows for work but I want to take handwritten notes also. Surface book fills that need. I'll leave the rmbp at home for non work stuff and my ipad 3 will hang out for a while longer. Other issues is trying to ipp for 80% of work but no real file system is a big strain when emailing with attachments. Losing the pencil navigation is the straw that broke the camels back.
I bounce back and forth between these two constantly!! I find Goodnotes better to use from a UI standpoint, but Notability has some better features with more sophisticated capability. It got to a point where it was really driving me crazy, but then I started thinking about my 'real world' and how it's best to start to mimicking reality and then improving from there. I look around at all the different ways I take notes manually and realize that there is no "one way". I have sticky notes, big post it notes, sketches on paper, a regular note book, etc. etc. I've come to the conclusion that having multiple apps to accomplish what I need isn't a bad thing, and it might actually be the best approach to take. So I've begun settling in on what types of notes that work best in Goodnote and Notability and having been having pretty good success. It's also nice to bounce back and forth because I may need to do something with a note that only one of the apps supports, so staying familiar with both gives me a lot of options.
It won't effect this thread. The Pencil will still work perfectly for taking notes... as it was intended ;-)
I've just downloaded notability too but can't seem to get the notes from there on here
Not bad at all rookie.
Mine is still in the box until I get some time today at the office to break it out.

I'm terrible at drawing so hopefully now I can use this a lot and improve ha.
I've found that I'm enjoying the notes app more than notability even though it has more features.

I certainly think the notability app will be more useful for what I will use it for at work for example.I do like the ruler on the notes app though.
Since my handwriting is atrocious I will rely more on taking pics of agendas and notating next to or marking that up versus a big white gaping space of scary nothing for my ugly hand writing to conquer.
All ready for a busy 12 hours of work
What do you do if I may ask and how are you incorporating it into your work flow? I always enjoy the specific work scenarios we all utilize it in. We all know its a consumption beast and we love to goof off with it but the versatility of it is the best part.
I use mine at work for mainly note taking during meetings. The Apple Pencil might be overkill since I'm not an artist but it sure is sweet to use and feels exactly like using an actual pen/pencil. I don't use paper anymore.
I'm getting mine on Monday Monday but I know already what I will be doing. I'm a structural draftsman so I'm going to be marking up my drawings via the Apple Pencil and PDF's.
Also going to use autodesk 360 it view my model for any mistakes and additions.
And basic viewing of drawings from various disciplines.
That and basic word documents, email etc
I'm basically planning to use it as a semi third screen. Which will allow me to use my other 2 screens solely for my main applications.
I work for a crisp company where I do with deliveries going out, customer issues with invoicing, delivery numbers that need marking off for example where we have say 160 runs a day so I need to make off manifests and match it off with the delivery docket basically.
