HOW TO GET READY
You can save yourself a TON of time by getting your ipad ready in advance.
Make sure your photos are backed up to Drive [CLICK HERE]
Make sure your Notability notes are being backed up [ CLICK HERE ]
Make sure your iPad has AT LEAST a 20% charge. We WILL NOT accept any iPad with less than that – you can either plug it in and wait, or come back later.
Bring your cable and charger. make sure it is an IPAD charger [larger], not an iPhone charger [ small].
If you have ever checked your ipad [or iPhone] storage by going to Settings –> Other –> iPad Storage you will have seen the space taken up by apps, documents, video, audio, etc. — and then a mysterious “Other”.
The “Other” category can be anything from a system update that has been downloaded but not installed, to web browser caches, logs, Siri voices, Messages, and many other odds and ends.
If your “Other” category has become bloated and taking up too much room on your iPad, here are some tricks to try and reduce it.
🍩 Create perfect shapes. Draw any shape and hold the ink for a moment; watch as the shape snaps perfectly into place. You can also erase perfect shapes! Try this: Draw a circle, hold the ink down, then erase a circle from the center. Wa-la you’ve made a donut. Now add sprinkles!
🎧 Listen to audio at the right pace. Adjust audio playback speed for your listening style. Audio speed options are: 0.7x, 1x, 1.25x, 1.5x, 2x.

🔎 Find anything in your notes. Search your handwriting (and convert it to text)*, typed text, pdf text, image text, and note titles (in 23 supported languages)!
📸 Scan paper documents to import. It’s easy to scan and digitize your paper documents into PDFs or images by simply snapping a photo! Text in scanned documents and images is also searchable!
📥 Import GIFs, photos and more! Simply drag and drop GIFs, photos, and web clips from other applications like Safari or easily add media from the Notability note view.
🎨 Create custom colors. Use the color picker to find and save your perfect shades and create your ink palette (you can save up to 32 custom colors).
🔧 Edit audio recordings. Trim, merge, split, reorder and rename audio recordings. Fine-tune audio by adjusting equalizer in playback mode or Voice Boost. Voice Boost allows you to amplify distant voices that may otherwise sound muffled.
There is even a PRESENTATION MODE – use your notability document like a Slide deck. CLICK HERE FOR DETAILS.
Work on multiple notes at the same time with Multi-note and note Switcher. CLICK HERE FOR DETAILS.
📝 Take notes alongside another app. When Notability is open, drag and drop another app from the iPad dock onto the screen to view both apps side by side.
