It's not perfect, but if I search for "GoodNotes" exactly by name it should give me GoodNotes.
The fact that the search results dedicate most of my screen to Notability (one of their main competitors) is some bullshit on Apple's part.

It would be one thing if I searched for "notebook" or "handwriting" or "notes," but I searched for a specific app by name and they're sending traffic to a competitor because GoodNotes "only" pays 30% of their revenue to Apple, and Apple wants even more on top of that or else a competitor gets their traffic.
Sometimes search is bad because search is a hard problem and it's difficult to know what a user is looking for.
Apple knows exactly what I was looking for. They're just being dicks about it.
- scarface74 8y agoWhat’s going to happen when Apple rolls out the game subscription? Will they favor those games over publishers that decide not to be part of it? I think (and hope) that I read that it will be a separate tab. My heart goes out to the few non scammy, paid up front/pay one time to get rid of ads publishers that might be affected, but honestly if all apps that are dependent on ads, in app purchases of coins, power ups and loot boxes disappeared from the store, nothing of value would be lost.
