Comments on Squid: Take Notes, Markup PDFs for Android

★★★★★ Samantha Robinette · Feb 21, 2026

Way better than OneNote for handwritten notes. You can write a massive, mile-long page and the app won’t break when you try to export it as a PDF. It exports everything exactly as you wrote it without cutting anything off, unlike OneNote, which often cuts off your notes during export.

★★★★★ Donna QC · Jul 24, 2026

This is an amazing note-taking app. I've been using it for years. Write with the pen, use your finger to erase. I'm a teacher and use it for marking student rubrics, then I export it to their Dropbox folders and done!! It has streamlined my marking and made my job easier for years!! Thank you!!! Subscription worth it every time. Colleagues are always in awe when I show them how I can edit student work, upload it, then start again so quickly.

★★★★★ Aicha Djitte · Jul 17, 2026

It helps my anxiety and I write everything I feel, and it makes me better at expressing my feelings and I write better, and I draw better and yeah

★☆☆☆☆ 飞一般Tiger · May 25, 2026

To import PDFs is not free, so I uninstalled.

★☆☆☆☆ Evan Sims · Jul 29, 2025

Wasn't there a feature to cut-and-paste full pages Edit (reply to response): Read the page, that's how I remember it the click and drag to move pages is not working

★☆☆☆☆ Jorge Barrera · Mar 17, 2026

For actual features, one needs a premium subscription, which is ONLY a subscription for and not a one-time purchase. Note wise at least has a one-time purchase option.

★★☆☆☆ Brent Bischoff · Aug 12, 2025

The email option is not available in the Share Via menu. This is a must-have featured for me.

★☆☆☆☆ J. Grey · Jun 29, 2026

Typed text is a premium feature, the free version is essentially useless without a touch screen. If your device has a default notes app, it is almost certainly more capable than this
