A lot to like here!

I like this app because it strikes a balance between the apps designed for quick note taking and the ones designed for complicated work.

Many of the apps designed for quick work have some limitation -- notes cannot exceed one page, there is no zoom feature, the notes cannot be stored in collections, etc.

Many of the apps designed for more detailed work have so many features, or features so complex or requiring so much set up, that you might not be inclined to grab one of them just to make a simple note on the fly.

Pen and Paper has just enough features for both simpler and more complicated work. With it, you can use your handwriting, type, insert, pan and zoom, import, share, and store.

There is no "zoom box" at the bottom of the page, but the pan and zoom feature is very good and includes an autoscrolling capability, so, your handwriting can be clear and readable (even on the iPhone). Because the app can be set for autoscrolling, the pages dont pick up stray marks from your fingers when the pages moves along as you write.

Typed notes can be centered or either left or right aligned, and inserted shapes can easily be made into text boxes.

The app works on both the iPad and the iPhone, and you can sync data between devices via the cloud. Cloud sharing can be selective, which means that you can keep more private documents off the cloud at the same time that you can share other ones.
