Best note apps for iPad

Whether typed notes or handwritten notes are your thing, these are the best note taking apps for iPad!

The iPad is a great productivity tool and that includes taking notes, whether you're in the classroom or the boardroom. The only thing you really have to decide is how you want to take notes.
