    I run a company with about 50 employees, and all of the employees have been given an iPad to use & we used to officially recommend Goodnotes for a while. But, everyone started complaining about battery life after they started using this app. The battery drain is equivalent to a rich graphics 3D game like Asphalt 8, which is just insane. Even my new iPad lasts just 4 to 5 hours when using Goodnotes, which is fatal. Now, we have decided to stop recommending this app and instead will be shifting to notability. And I have made it a point to let every company with which I have professional relationship know of the hazardous impact of using Goodnotes for note taking, and 3 companies which used to use Goodnotes ( a total of about 1000 people) have had to give up using it, following their own bad experiences and my advice. A company which cannot solve this criitical & fatal flaw despite many complaints over the years cannot be trusted. If Goodnotes someday do resolve the issues then many of us might think about switching, but I dont think thats coming anytime in the near future. Because the way the situation is right now, Goodnotes definitely doesn’t care. Sad, that such a capable app ended up like this.
