Take better notes, by hand

I retain information better when taking notes by hand. However, being able to attach an image and search is absolutely required for me, hence why I use digital notes at work.

I can keep years of notes in a file which I can take and access anywhere whenever I want.

Personally I like Goodnotes since it is pretty good at searching handwriting.

Plus 1, Goodnotes is such a well developed product. I also have an iPad screen guard which gives a paper like feel when writing which makes my brain think I am writing on a book.
