- Опубліковано 18 чер 2024
- Hey everyone! This is my third time making a Notability vs. GoodNotes 5 comparison video, and since I just graduated form College it may also be my final one. Because of this, I wanted to go as in depth as I possibly could and compare these two note taking applications to find out which is truly better.
If I forgot to mention anything, or made some mistakes, please let me know in the comments and I will continue to update a pinned comment with any corrections y'all find!
Hope this video gives you an idea what both applications are capable of doing, and helps you decide which is best for you!

Updated Corrections:
1. You are able to change the template color on GN5
Also GN5 is now a subscription based or $30 one time app.
My man just did a more than one hour video comparing 2 notetaking apps while not even having that big of a channel. That's some dedication right there, the vid is structured and made extremely well a well. I admire ur work bro gj. Edit: Also a question, do u have some kind of screen protector used here? like paperlike for example? or like a regular screen protector?
Thank you so much Ahmed 🥹 I appreciate the kind words! I'm just trying to make the best videos I can and help you all out! Hope to see you around more :)
This is the most comprehensive comparison imaginable. Unfortunately, it’s now obsolete! Any chance you will do a comparison of Goodnotes 6 and Notability 14?
Thank you very much. I have settled the matter. Now I can choose between these two applications after I was very confused. Thank you for this video.❤❤❤
This was an excellent video. It’s informative and quite soothing. I’ve watched twice already. Congratulations on graduating!
Thank you so much I'm glad you enjoyed it 😊😇 and I appreciate it! So happy I'm finally done that long grind!!
This video was so helpful! Thank you for taking the time to make it 🙌and good luck with everything!
Thank you so much! Glad it was helpful to you 🙏🏻😊
Thank you for the comprehensive breakdown! I've been switching back and forth between the two for a while as well and finally just decided to go with goodnotes b/c of their search feature. It's just too good of a godsend.
You’re very welcome! Glad to have provided this video for you 🫡
Amazing review! Great job & effort! 🙌
Thank you so much! Glad you think so 😊
Notability have just released a new version v14. It's excellent. Best of all for me with having the Classic version is we have been fully upgraded with the Ruler, Favourite notes, Seasons Skins, Stickers etc. But not the Math text conversion. Keep up the great work Nathan.
Ayeeee that's awesome news to hear that classic models get those features as well! Thank you Mike, I appreciate the kind words. Not stopping anytime soon🫡❤️
Thank you, Nathan! Your previous comparison of these helped me to choose GN5. Interesting, that GN5 is now available on Android & Windows, but with a reduced functionality. Maybe in future you could make a video on that?
You're very welcome! Glad to have helped :) and that's a good idea I can definitely look into that video!
Good video. 👍🏻 Would definitely like to see a small updated video of the latest GN6 and N14. Wouldn’t have to be this in-depth or long but would be cool to see the latest features side by side and if they are worth it. Thanks!
This was so brilliant. Thank you.
Thank you so much I appreciate it🥰
Such a thorough comparison!!! I’ve been using GN5 for quite some time and still learned a few things from you. Thanks, Nathan!
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it and learned a few things! Yup as of now, GN5 is top for me 😇
Thank you so much for the great video! GN5 is perfect for me 😊
You're very welcome! Glad to have helped you 🤗
Great video. Thank you for putting in such effort 👍🏻
Thank you for checking it out and leaving the awesome comment! You’re the goat for that! 🐐🔥
Fantastic presentation! Thank you so much.😊
Thank you for the fantastic comment! Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Absolutely loved the video! I was skeptical at first bcuz of how long this video was but man it was worth it.
I just bought an ipad and this video helped me choose the app. I'm gonna go with Notability!
Thanks, keep doing more of these💙
Thank you so much! I’m glad I was able to help :) best of luck with notability 🙏🏻
Very Helpful, still can't decide though which one to stick with lol, both apps are getting really good i guess, video's great though, i actually watched it all the way through, thank's a lot!
Great work Nathan. Well done.
Thank you so much I appreciate the kind words!!! ♥️
Thanks a lot for this thourough review, it helped me a LOT in making the decision, thanks man!
My pleasure! 😊
amazing video!!!! really helped me make my decision!!!❤
Thank you!!! Glad to have helped :)
Congrats on the Graduation Nate!! 🎉 Awesome video as always and this one is going to be helpful to the next gen entering college after the summer
Thank you Poojan! Best of luck to you in the upcoming years! Hope to see you around in future videos too 🙏😊
Fantastic video nathan.
Amazing video !! I just find out I could make stickers on GN5 , I’m so happy ! 🎉 very well made video 🤝🏼😌
Glad to have shown you that! I really appreciate the support though thank you 🙏🏻
Thanks mate you solved all the queries that I had with which note taking app to use.
Is it worth it and all things related to it.
Really glad and the time invested is worth it.
You're very welcome! I was really trying to be a thorough as possible to help you make your decision! Thank you for the support and best of luck❤️
Thank you an excellent video Nathan. Thank you for taking the time to explain the main differences. I am a Notability user (not subscription) as I brought many of the add on s before it went subscription. As a maths teacher I like the dashed lines on Notability and turning maths into math using the conversion tool but you do need to know some latex for post editing. Thanks.
Thank you Mark, I really appreciate the kind message! And I completely understand with the deshed lines as an engineering major! I would love them on good notes 5 😭
Interesting GoodNotes 6 has become subscription and Notability have made a strange update with no favorites tool bar anymore.@@NathanLemoine
Notability just had an update which has got rid of the favourites bar and its kind of ruined my life. theres been a few other changes which are all just for aesthetics but have ruined the functionality! I'm so disappointed and now im going to have to try GN5. Thanks for the video this has helped me!
Notability has a search icon on the subject/divider screen view. You can also search hand-written words.
The dedication 👏👏
Thank you! 😋🫡
Awesome video 👍
Thank you! 🫡
Bro you are sooo underrated love from india ...
also what would you recommend air 5 m1 or ipad pro m2 , purpose note taking and maybe in future id edit videos in them (start yt channel) i am from india so price diff is a lot in both of those and i dnt want to extend my budget but if its necessary i will. Looking forward to your valuable suggestion.
I badly wanted to use notability, but they lack the most simple feature I love from GN5 which is automatically straightening highlights/lines without holding it first. I read and highlight so much that I need that convenience/ease while studying.
I actually find the hold and straighten useful! it gives me time to read the text again
@@feixuzou you can do both hold or automatic on GN5. I just wish notability has the option to auto straighten bc if they do, I'd prob be using it more than GN5.
Hi Nathan! As GN6 is out rn, which one would u recommend to be worth it to buy? Also as GN6 releases on sep 9th, would u recommend me to buy GN5 as it is lifetime and then if I don’t prefer it I can always switch to Notability and have my GN5 too? thanks for the intuitive video btw ❤
Excellent tips. What is the default file format for Notability file? Is is a doc and can it be exported to Word flawlessly?
Thank you for this great video but I still can't decide because they released new updates. Which one do you suggest with new updates? Im mostly working on pdf math books maybe i can take notes in the future but now currently Im working on college entrance exams
Just so you know you actually can search your writing in notability, but I’m also in the boat of being grandfathered in on notability, personally I prefer it but if I wasn’t grandfathered in I would absolutely choose goodnotes. Really good video thanks for taking the time for such an in-depth informative comparison:)
Can you search content on an uploaded pdf in notability?
Notability just gone to v14. Us grandfathered users just got it all upgraded except for Math conversion.
AS OF AUG ‘23 GN5 is now a subscription based $10/yr or $30 one time app.
GN5 and Procreate are the best things I’ve ever spent money on! Very disappointed with their backflip on pricing for GN6 though.
Completely agree, me too 🥺
i don't have ipad yet but was so good i watched all good job bro
Thank you so much! I hope you get an ipad soon 🥹🙏
54:33, you can directly copy/paste lasso'd items without taking screenshots.
You're right! I think I was referencing coping and passing screenshots and not hand written text there! Thank you for the correction though :)
I playing with Noteability at the moment and I find handwriting pretty cool, when finished can I turn the handwriting notes to text
Insane amount of time and effort, what a video
Thank you 🥹
I have decided to buy goodnotes because of this..thanks!!
Glad to hear it!😁
I actually have both but I jump between them on a weekly basis. So frustrating. Right now on notability until I get bored of it.
What do you think of the new notability update?
Did not expect to watch an hour long video on note taking apps lol, amazing video. However, good notes 6 is now out and unfortunately it is also subscription based
Thank you so much for the awesome comment! Appreciate people watching it and talking to me :) but I know, they haven’t changed from GoodNotes 5 since I started using it years ago, and months after I make this video they change to GoodNotes 6 😂😭
Notability’s latest update (July 2023) has just about broken the viewing experience with this really annoying floating tool bar when working on a PDF document. Having been a long time Notability user I am now looking at switching to GoodNotes …
I’ve been hearing about this awful update 😭 haven’t had a chance to check it out just yet, but it seems I made the right recommendation with GN5 😂
Hello brother, please note that, we have also such function in Notability in both ways. You can search text as well as handwritings. You can use it with two way. First: you can use it through dashboard. Second: you can use it through document bar.
Thank you for the correction! I always welcome new info when I get it wrong 🫡🔥
Would you recommend a iPad for high school students (mostly only for seniors) I’m thinking about getting one so I don’t have to worry about wasting paper plus the iPad is expensive so what college for nursing can give you a iPad
If you can afford it, I do recommend an iPad even for highschool! And you don’t need to get the Pro or even an Air. The base 9th Gen iPad is perfect for note taking and any other school needs. The other iPads just give you extra features that are nice but not necessary!
Good notes 5 is great
Thank you so much :)
You're very welcome!!! 🥰
Which ones allow audio recording with the ability to tap the word to recall where in the recording you were writing it? That’s what I want
You make the point that Notability has helped you succeed with your university studies. Therefore, I would consider the $14.99 yearly subscription charge a worthwhile investment if it means graduating successfully and going on to a high paying career. After all, we are only talking the cost of a few coffees per year.
gn5 better no cappa
Joplin is very good to
Didn't know Max Verstappen was so passionate about notetaking!
Good notes is 30$ NOW!! Still worth it though
Good Notes 6😭😭😭😭😭😭
I just downloaded goodnotes and now it is offering me to play yearly or a one time pay that’s quiet pricey 😖
I’ve heard 😵💫 it’s still better priced than notability but wayyyyyy more than before
Bro create a video how to make youtube videos like you
Actually, I'm planning on doing a behind the scenes of one of my intros real soon 😏
Is good notes 5 still up on the App Store?
I tried downloading it and I only see Good notes 6 with a 30 dollar price or a 10 dollar yearly fee…
Are you a new user?
Can add link to goodnotes?
All set! It's in the description of the video :)
I didn't understand anything 😅 Who is the best?
Good Notes 5 is the best value currently, and has some features that Notability doesn't have that I think are really helpful for students :)
@@NathanLemoine Thanks ❤️
Why don't you make review video on notability new version 14...which is one of the worst update..
I haven’t had a chance to use it yet as I’m not even allowed to bring my iPad to work with me, but I’ll try to check it out soon! Been hearing from a lot of people with how bad it is 😭
Goodnotes is now $30 once or $10/year. Hate all these subscription models.
Such an L 😣
Chicken Scratch

i can't focus, otto's plump orange body is too distracting
He do be pumpin 😂
Why did you delete my comment? Don’t you accept corrections in your life?
I haven't deleted any comments from this video yet?!
@@NathanLemoine Oh yea? Must have been a ghost then.
Awesome video
Thank you Isaac!!!
Yes sir, I have been waiting on a updated comparison vid and you detailed everything which was amazing
Thanks again for this great vid !
was waiting for this after seeing your behind the scenes 🫶🏻
I hope it doesn't disappoint 🙏🙏🥰
Would prefer one notes for free.
FREE is indeed for ME 🫡
