Armadillo Audio Notes at Mac App Store analyse

Une application vraiment bien, mais qui hélas, traine à proposer un moyen d’exporter les documents audios enregistrer : c’est un aspect très négatif pour les personnes qui travaillent en collaboration sur des documents audios… J’espère que la fonctionalité sera ajoutée rapidemment !

Este aplicativo é muito bom. É bem certo que faltam alguns ajustes e mais recursos, no entanto, vale cada centavo pago! Recomendo fortemente!

This is a good app but short a few features included in other audio note apps. You can create links in the text to a particular point in time in the audio but playing the audio back will not highlight the text associated with it. It cant import audio files that have been recorded outside the app.

This App does a good job all around but is far from perfect. For example, its impossible to decide where to save your files, and impossible to know how much space your notes are taking on your harddrive (SSD users, be warned). Also, using tables with this App is a total mess. It seems to leverage technology from TextEdit but also seems to have big problems: for example, selecting the right cells and changing font in table cells sometimes just doesnt work at all. By the time youll have figured how to bypass the problem, youll have missed 10 minutes of class lecture, which is not nice at all. Now on the good side, the App is well presented and pretty easy to use but need some other features to make it worthwhile, like being able to add or freely draw figures. If you compare this to One Note on Windows or even Words Notebook feature on Mac, its lacking many useful features. Hopefully, it will only get better with time.

I purchased this program to import a pdf to then be able to record a lecture and write notes on the different pages in the pdf during a university lecture. The import feature did not allow me to select a pdf at all. When I dragged and dropped the pdf into the program it embedded the pdf but only as small window where you could scroll through the pdf to view it but not type on it. If you can fix this issue, this program will be awesome. If not, I just paid good money for a program I cannot use.

It looks good but it’s not as versatile as i thought it’d be. I like my notes looking nice, but I want it to look nice in my own way. Armadillo does not allow me to change the default settings to change the font and paragraph style (like line spacing). Also, it doens’t synchronize the words you type with the audio that’s being recorded at that point in time. I’ve used another application before (AudioNote) that would synchronize every single letter, and I found that to be really helpful so I didn’t have to listen to a whole big portion and try to fastforward and rewind here and there just to get to one point that i want to replay. I would return it if I could, and return to the application I used before—AudioNote—even if it doesn’t look as good. At least it’s more practical for college students like me who want to take lecture notes and club meeting minutes.

A life saver whan it comes to recording boring lectures! A must have for every student!
