You will continue to have access to any items or technology you previously purchased. You will be able to continue using Notability as you do now for the next year for free. Thank you for your support all these years. Addressed to those users, a Medium post from the Notability Blog explains: In other words, no grandfathering scheme is currently being offered. To get 'the full Notability experience' offered by version 11.0 of the app now requires an annual $14.99 subscription, which includes unlimited note taking and access to additional features that are otherwise available as in-app purchases.Īs far as it affects current users who purchased the full app, key features will become non-functional after one year, after which they will have to subscribe to retain the feature set they originally paid for. Previously available as a one-off $8.99 purchase, Notability for iPhone, iPad, and Mac is now free to download on the App Store, but not all the features are available in the 'freemium' version, and those that are included have editing limitations. Notability users have been left frustrated and annoyed after the developer of the popular Mac and iOS note-taking app revealed on Monday that it has switched to a subscription-based model, and that key features included in original app purchases will stop functioning after one year.
