Inkflow Plus Visual Notebook
Visual Thinkers Rejoice!
Inkflow works like a word-processor for visual thinking. Capture your ideas as easily as with pen and paper, then arrange and reorganize them with your fingers!
INKFLOW PLUS
This is the full featured Plus Edition of Inkflow. It is the same as the in-app purchase from the basic edition Inkflow. Please download this only if you haven't already upgraded in-App.
DIGITAL WRITING DONE RIGHT
Inkflow's ink feels like a really smooth fountain pen. Great for expressive writing or sketching. Effortlessly scale or move anything you select. This will change the way you think about ink: Jot down a list of concepts then rearrange them to fit into the bigger picture. literally move your thoughts around the page, and assemble big ideas with your fingers. This works great for brainstorming and planning. It's also perfect for prototyping layouts, sketching, and drawing.
FULL RESOLUTION ZOOM
Zoom and pan with two fingers. Inkflow's ink stays sharp no matter how much you zoom in, so you can add fine details at full quality. It's also lightning fast and lag free. This allows writing and drawing with incredible precision, with or without a stylus.
INKPORT: COPY AND PASTE FROM THE REAL WORLD
Only Inkflow Plus includes the revolutionary Inkport tool. Inkport uses your iPad's camera to instantly convert your written notes and sketches into Inkflow's native vector ink. Easily pull in materials from multiple sources and go from paper to iPad without missing a beat. Inkport is going to change the way you use paper in your workflow.
TEXT, PHOTOS, and PAPER BACKGROUNDS TOO
Insert text boxes and photos anywhere on the page and resize them seamlessly with the ink. You can also choose from a selection of different paper backgrounds.

Great quality simple well thought out creative note app with beautiful handwriting. Love the calligraphy pen's ability. The more I delve into Inkflow, the more I discover and everything works flawlessly. 👍 It’s been a keeper for years.

The data collected on users and the lack of encryption limit the creative freedom by giving everything you make away to big tech without explicit consent. Technical issues include the inability to get a clear overview of the pages for organizational purposes. Importing is also highly limited. There’s no layers or transparent markers among other basic drawing tools. So almost no difference to the notebook flow app. UI lacks user friendly labels so to remember basic function you have to lookup the online manual.

I like the idea of the app but a few things:
- importing pictures of paper notes in InkFlow format are very grainy/pixelated/very low quality.
- over multiple devices, the app loses connection to the Apple stylus and will not write or work at all in the the app.
I think the idea is great but the inconsistencies are very frustrating.
Just my thoughts. I would like to see improvement like these.

I’m still using the older version Inkflow+ because I can’t figure out how to cut & paste on this version. On the last you’d just lasso something and tap/cut/paste. I’d like to upgrade but cut&paste very necessary for my use.
Great app otherwise, Inkflow+ is by far my favorite notes app.

It may be a bug but I just tried changing the pen color on the notebook 3 times and the entire app crashed on me. Please help! Thank you!

Anytime I touch the screen, the canvas is shifted up or down. In other words, the canvas has two positions, with or without a space that can only be described as an empty second toolbar. The canvas shifts up, hiding this space, or down, bringing it back. No matter what other conditions exist, every touch of the canvas toggles it between these two states. Basically one of the most irritating things imaginable.

I love it other than the fact that it glitches out 30% of the time I go to save it so I just save often which gets annoying. If you could fix that, it would be 5 stars.

The last couple of days my pages are randomly being deleted. Really disappointing, especially considering this is the paid version.

I got this app to start journaling and recording different notes. My first entry was 8 pages - I was pumped to keep using the app and thought it was going to be a game changer! - and then I tried to go back to the dock to create a new book and lost half of my pages! Is this going to happen every single time I try to create an entry???
amendenall86 • Jan 2, 2021
I have had every time I’ve used this an issue where it hasn’t saved an entire page I’ve worked on for an hour and completed. When I change pages and come back it’s empty or if I close the app and open it it’s empty. It’s frustrating

Hello,
I love this app- there are an unlimited amount of colors for the pen. Its amazing. I am in medical school and I am doing a masters in medical science and it has helped me tremendously!

Within the last 6 months or so, every time I click to save my file, I have to hold my breath and hope that it saves instead of freezing on a spinning dial. I’ve been losing my work half the time I use this app. Please update!!!
I love and need this app!

It is crazy how simple this app is. I use it to capture my new ideas and designs with text and initial sketches.
Far better than the Notes app. The developer has done great work in Inkflow Plus.

A ruler or scale would be extremely useful.

Inkflow Plus is a marvelous App. Initially I got it because I was searching for an App that could turn my photos into “outline art similar to Coloring Book Pages”. It does this and so much more. I learned about Color Hex Codes and plenty more about color. There’s a really cool eraser tool—you can toggle it to erase just one color !!
But...now for the “but...”
I just got a new iPad Pro, and the Inkflow App is there, but none of my gallery. It’s start from scratch again I guess...or is there a login that I must do? What should I do?
