Let me preface this by saying that I love the notability app for ipad. I think it is hands down the best way of taking notes on the iPad, and Ive tried a few apps. Notability has an excellent design and features and I’m very happy with it overall. The mac app on the other hand…
I should mention that my macbook pro is a bit older now, it’s best days are definitely behind it now, but it can still run most apps just fine. It might sometimes have a momentary delay or something, but it still runs well enough to work with. All of that changes when I open notability. This app instantly gobbles up half my RAM and slows my whole computer to a crawl. Every click takes about 3 seconds minimum to register, and has a 10% chance of freezing my whole computer, forcing me to do a hard reset. I’ll no longer be using notability on my computer, which is a shame because sometimes it’s more convenient to read my notes on my computer instead of my iPad.
Please fix this devs. This is a great app, but until it stops taking up an obscene amount of memory it’ll be practically unusuable for me, and I’m sure for others as well.
