Summarize

Of course, GoodNotes 5 at the moment cannot replace Procreate, because these are two different applications, GoodNotes is the best application for notes on the iPad and annotations of pdf files. 

Procreate is the best app for drawing on iPad using Apple Pencil. But gradually GoodNotes introduced new tools and new features for handwritten notes that make it more convenient. 

 I'm waiting for GoodNotes to add the ability to change the transparency of the notes, this will give impetus to more creativity and visual aesthetics. At the moment, we have to get out and create headlines with those that are in GoodNotes. For a quick and accurate Header, this is probably the best solution.
