Your notes on
every device. Not just iPad.
Your handwritten notes trapped on one iPad? Craft syncs everything — drawings, typed notes, and more — across every device.
Which one is right for you?
Noteful traps your handwritten notes on a single iPad — no sync, no backup, no way to access them from your phone or computer. Craft gives you Apple Pencil drawing plus typed notes, AI, and instant sync to every device you own.
Choose if you:
- Access notes everywhere — Noteful locks you to a single iPad
- Typed notes + handwriting + images + AI in one app
- Instant sync means your notes are always backed up and accessible
- Share and collaborate — Noteful has zero sharing features
- Full-text search and AI across all your notes — not just page flipping
Choose Noteful if you:
- iPad handwriting with paper simulation is your only use case
- You prefer a one-time purchase and never need sync
- Advanced pen pressure and ink simulation is essential
- You genuinely don't need your notes on any other device
