I ~exclusively use ZoomNotes, which is very customizable but is quirky and comes with a steep learning curve. For me the main benefits of the tablet are: - Copy/paste/drag. Pretty helpful when you manipulate long expressions, or want to condense a bunch of scratch work. - Relatedly: easy erase. When I used real paper, pencil was too low contrast, and “erasable pen” never worked well. So I used a real pen and just crossed tons of stuff out; ugly. - Keep a decade of notes with me wherever I go. (And cloud backed up so I won’t lose them.) - Infinite zoom and no page boundaries. Seems silly, but it’s really nice to write as big as I want without worrying about running out of room on the page. - Text search of handwritten notes. Works surprisingly well. - Easily switch to different colors. 99% of the time I only use 2 or 3, but I find it helpful to visual distinguish the main argument/computation from “side commentary”.
