It's great for taking notes in. But it's a little painful to use to annotate pdfs. This is because the rendering is pretty slow. Also it's quite hard to insert pages in arbitrary locations. In any case it does a decent job of things and is worth paying for.

Android 6.0 getting the message cannot read PDF file. Issue with adding permission in Android 6 info given to me in an email with the dev. Once I allowed it the apps worked like a charm

Brilliant setup, with instant help desk service!! Only upgrades I can suggest is to also create a desktop version and get commercial cloud storage from rackspace to host and backup content straight to your own servers. Then you will overtake evernote which is absolute garbage.
