With Goodnotes 6 being released, it now is a subscription instead of a flat payment. I am looking for a replacement app that is not subscription based. I have tried onenote and really did not care for it. Notability is one that i have seen suggested, use it a single payment?

I just picked it up for $20 a year

Yes, this is a subscription and what I am avoiding.

Not looking for an argument just generally curious as to why $20 a year seems like something you really don’t want, especially when the devs are updating it regularly and that they get paid. Seems like a win win for a good product. Edit: it is unfortunate however they don’t offer a free version to win you over

I am not asking for a free app. I paid for Goodnotes 5 and would pay for Goodnotes 6 if it was a single payment. I am not going to subscribe to software. I left Adobe Photoshop for that very reason.

If you are fine with it, do it. I am not.
