Whitelines

Besides my goodnotes app, the whitelines app is my most use app on my phone.

I love this notebook! It is soo easy to scan it and learn it on the train without all those papers! Its easy and its not distracting! I started using it in my first year of college and im loving it!! Couldn’t take notes and make summaries without it!! 😁🎉 it is a party to work with Whitelines 😍🎉🎉😁😁

It does what it says, Nothing more, nothing less. Fantastic haiku.

It scans the documents really well but does not integrate with Evernote properly. Instead of uploading the images to an Evernote page it either uploads multiple of one image or no images.

Doesn’t scan my notebook. Highly disappointed

I used to love this and use it all the time but now instead of scanning the notebook all the app does it take a picture, which is pretty useless :/. I tried every suggestion mentioned in the reviews and online but nothing helps.

This app was perfect, I bought new notebooks because Ibwas obsessed with them. The new update screwed everything, it is almost impossible to scan now. It creates massive pdfs that take too much time to send. Also, interface lags all the time. My time scanning docs went from 15 seconds to 5 minutes each. Can i get the last version back please??

Firstly, I love Whitelines notebooks. They’re absolutely great for taking notes: good quality, nice paper. My issue is simply with the new update to the app. I was using my notebooks for my hw: scanning it, then uploading directly to google classroom which made things incredibly easy. However the new update is has screwed up the scanning capabilities of this app. It takes an incredibly long time to recognize my nb page (when before it took mere seconds), and even when it does so, it doesn’t recognize the edges of the paper correctly, and scans it as a photo instead of the cleaned up, white background pages it had before. I can get it to scan like the old way, only after several attempts, and a very long time holding my phone absolutely still, parallel to the page, even though before this update it had no trouble identifying the pager margins correctly and scanning my notes beautifully. The old scanning features were fine!

First, I have to caveat that this review is about the app only. The Whitelines paper is an absolute joy, hands down my favorite paper to use. But about the app... 1. I use the Engineering Pad paper. Anything I write outside of the grid is not captured by the app when you scan it. It's just truncated. This is silly; the app sees the registration marks, so it should be able to capture the page boundaries, not just the limitations of the margins. 2. Whatever GUI kit the app uses, it's horrible. It looks and feels absolutely nothing like an iOS app, at all. Illogical icons, icon placement, lack of options, ... it makes no sense. 3. The paper has preprinted boxes for email, Dropbox, and Evernote. But I can't find any way to configure them to do anything. At all. 4. If you click on "organize...", and don't know what you're doing, you can easily split apart multi page PDF scans, and lose the renamed filename (which is one of the few organization pieces of information you were able to provide). Great paper. Useless app. The company ought to work with or partner with Rocketbook. I know it's a different philosophy, but at least Rocketbook's app is functional, and able to configure destinations and organize scans semi-intelligently.

I have been using this app for my school work during 2020 and the last update that rolled out about 2 days ago seems to have completely messed the app up for me. Insanely hard to scan my paper, Whitelines paper, properly and I can no longer email myself a pdf of my work or notes. Without being able to do this anymore, I don’t really see a point in using this app any longer. Two stars since it used to be a great app but unfortunately no longer works properly.
