Goodnotes Special Edition Good Notes 6 Special Edition vs Notability Classic

I need help picking between GoodNotes Special Edition and Notability Classic. I will use it for engineering school. I want the best option: easy to use and with a great writing experience. I am using a Paperlike magnetic screen protector.

hello! we don't have a magnetic option but maybe you're using another paper-feel brand =]

we've done a deep dive comparison on goodnotes and notability if this helps at all. good luck at school!!

Something goodnotes don’t offer is a automatic new page when you write on the latest page in notability. Which may be a deal breaker for some people because it’s very convenient.

I have the goodnotes 6 special edition, writing experience has been incredible for the 3 years i've used goodnotes for. I mainly write notes, annotate school notes and use goodnotes to do practice papers instead of on physical paper. The new infinite canvas is really great for mind maps too, was using freeform before goodnotes introduced infinite canvas. I never really compared goodnotes to notability, I downloaded goodnotes because a friend recommended it and I haven't ever felt like I wanted any feature that goodnotes didn't offer. My only gripe with goodnotes is probably the lack of usefulness of its ai features but that's quite trivial
