GraphNotes and the apps you already use

GraphNotes does not ask you to leave the app you use now. Keep it for what it does well, and add GraphNotes for the one thing it is built around: reading with a pen and never losing where a thought came from.

• GraphNotes and GoodnotesKeep Goodnotes for notebooks and writing on the page. Add GraphNotes for notes that stay tied to the passage they are about.
• GraphNotes and NotabilityKeep Notability for lectures and their recordings. Add GraphNotes for the reading that comes after.
• GraphNotes and Apple NotesKeep Notes for everything you jot down. Add GraphNotes for long reading, where a note needs to stay tied to its passage.
• GraphNotes and ObsidianKeep Obsidian as your archive of Markdown files. Add GraphNotes as the place you read and write by hand.
• GraphNotes and HeptabaseKeep Heptabase for whiteboards of typed cards on every platform. Add GraphNotes for handwriting with Apple Pencil.
• GraphNotes and LiquidTextKeep LiquidText for taking a long document apart. Add GraphNotes when those thoughts should live on as notes of their own.
• GraphNotes and Defter NotesKeep Defter Notes for thinking by hand across an endless space. Add GraphNotes when a note needs an address and backlinks.

How GraphNotes sits beside another app

• PDFs come in from any app: share one to GraphNotes, or save it in the GraphNotes Inbox folder in iCloud Drive.
• Links go out to any app: Copy Link gives a graphnotes.app link to a doc, a highlight or a board, and it opens that note in GraphNotes on an iPad or iPhone that has it.
• Copies go out when you want them: Export with Highlights for one PDF, Export Everything for your whole library in formats other apps open, and Back Up Library for one file GraphNotes can restore.
