Hey! My name is Hafu Go and I'm a dreamer. For the past year, I made it my life mission to study patterns of success for students. I traveled across the world to interview students from top schools like Harvard, MIT, and Stanford. These college tips are what I wish I knew before starting my freshman year. Don't make the same mistakes as me.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This video has one goal, and that's to decide the BEST NOTE TAKING APP for the iPad Pro 2020.

The competitors are:
Goodnotes - $7.99 USD
Notability - $8.99 USD
OneNote - FREE!

Goodnotes has the best writing experience.
Notability has an audio record function that's unbeatable for lectures.
OneNote is free yet still beats Goodnotes and Notability on numerous categories.

The Comparison Between Notability vs. Goodnotes 5 vs. OneNote

GOODNOTES 5

PROS
Highlighter self straightens
Eraser auto-deselect is actually a genius feature
Smooth
Templates
Selection tool

CONS
Images can only stay on 1 page
expensive
pages are NOT continuous
Folder organization is a mess - notebooks can't be organized by lecture, you have to put bookmarks
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No matter how good the writing experience of the app is, the iPad can never match the feel of notebook and pencil for me. But after installing the Paperlike screen protector, who's our sponsor today, my notetaking experience has dramatically improved. Although still not perfect, it feels a lot better.

NOTABILITY

PROS
Audio Record Function
Page viewer - I can move pages around easily
Good organization system

CONS
Note taking writing isn't as smooth as Goodnotes
UX isn't as good as Goodnotes
No colorful covers for notebooks
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ONENOTE

PROS
Pen bar at the top that you can customize
Infinity pages - you can write on the left or right of PDF, no need to worry about making new pages
Notebook organization is pretty good cuz you can have one notebook for 1 Class, each lecture would be a separate Page
Real time sync with PC
Click anywhere to type
More optimized for computers
FREE!

CONS
More lag when writing, there's a flickering
Extremely lagging image inserting

Notability is better than Goodnotes - Get it if you ONLY use iPad
OneNote is better than both if you study on Computer AND iPad
