Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone had any experience with the PDF annotation apps out there. Some that I have come across as most useful are (in no particular order): 1) Notability 2) PDF expert 3) iAnnotate

I'm looking to get one of these apps as I'll be doing most of my reading on a tablet instead of carrying around books for each rotation. Anyone have any advice on which to go with?

Much appreciated!
 
I just got an iPad mini for rotations and after doing a lot of research went with PDF Expert. It loads pdfs quickly, has easy annotation tools, and is updated frequently. For viewing videos I bought nPlayer.

Have you found having an iPad useful overall? I was also leaning towards PDF expert although it's a bit expensive
 
I haven't actually started rotations yet. I was told by a few friends that it was convenient for downtime to have the books available in pdf format.
