Sorry...I should've been clearer. PC-Windows only. :( But Web version is planned to come in the future.

Yes, sign up for Windows updates on our website; we'll be doing another round of invites in like 2 weeks.

Wow, thanks for the great insights!
Re: 2. Very much agree, we have a "vision" for addressing this, but it'll take time.
Re: 3. Desktop apps coming! :)
Re: 4. Ahh, yeah, for iPad version, it really shines with Pencil.
And thanks for the 2016-era feedback. Some of that should be better now.
And honored to hear Jofish recommended us! LMK if you want in on any of our desktop betas.

Thanks! Hopefully Linux some day, Windows coming soon, in beta. :)

It's in beta for PC now! (I'm founder @ LT)

Yes, even in the free version, export as PDF (higher fidelity), or export notes as an outline in DOCX for easy editing in Word.

Yes, but desktop versions are coming. We're testing Windows in beta now! (I'm founder @ LT)

Thanks! We've thought about that. The next update will add some tagging features that won't solve that, but will get you partway to a solution to the timeline issue.

My apologies for the unimplemented features! Please know it's not because we don't care, we have real-human tech support for even our free users because we desperately care. But we have to focus on the largest demand requests. Fwiw, the biggest request is desktop support, which are in beta now.

Can you tell me what about the notes in LT made it hard to use them? We're hoping to make the app better. (I'm founder @ LT)

Wish we could! Just not enough people yet--have to keep focused on max return on investment. :) But we do plan to make a web version down the line, and remove the platform dependence entirely (or at least largely).

1. The In-app-purchase gives you inking, linking by drawing lines, freeform excerpts, multiple documents in a single project, and more.
2. Sign-up required: no.
3. Does this require 3rd party servers: no, stores everything locally.
Happy to answer any other questions (I'm founder @ LT)!

You can export doc+notes as PDF, or export notes as a DOCX file. Uses iCloud Backup for backup, but dedicated solution coming probably this summer. Thanks for asking! (I'm founder @ LT)

Can I ask why you don't use it anymore? (I'm founder at LT) Anything we could do to make it more of a post-school app for you as well?

Fair point about the updates, we're getting ready to launch a few bigger ones (es. a Win and MacOS version). Hopefully we can improve the other flows you mention. (I'm founder @ LT)
