Worlds *Worst* Note Taking App
I have been using audio note for awhile with great succes, but became frustrated with the apps lack of text formatting. So after searching for a new app that would let me sync an audio recording of the lecture with my professors pdf of lecture slides/notes AND let me change font sizes/styles etc. I found Armadillo and (sadly) threw away $10 on an app I will never use. The key missing feature: you cannot import a pdf file as the background as you can with audio note. So while you can embed images/pdfs etc., it only adds them into your note with their own separate scroll bars. So you cant follow along with pdf/ppt slides and add notes to the individual parts of the pdf. Also there is a menu item for "preferences" that never allows you to open it or change any preferences, which is silly. There is also no way to export audio, so youre stuck in this app with no way to get what you recorded to another app or another person. Audio note allows you to export the audio to a WAV file, which is incredibly useful, and I can get my recorded lectures to classmates who missed that day. This app is definitely not for following along with a pdf file full of powerpoint slides, such as most students do in class these days. So I really have no idea what this app is even for. If adobe acrobat pro had an option to record/sync audio…then I would never need another crappy app like this or audio note ever again. Sigh.
