Reply to comment by Aumusa in How can i use reading to improve my comprehension and memory? by Aumusa

What device do you use to read books? If it's something like a phone or an iPad you can take screenshots of the page and add notes that way. Keep them in an album or something so they're easy to find.

I use kindle and ipad, actually kindle most of the time so I won’t get side track. I was wondering if there’s a way to take note directly on the books i read in ipad as the writing would be easier with the pencil

You should be able to annotate it with an apple pencil. Try tapping the page (with the pencil), click the annotation tool in the sidebar, and then you should be able to highlight and add notes to selected text. I'm bad at explaining stuff LOL but let me know if it works! I'm not sure about kindle though.

Thank you, i just tried it, i can’t believe i have been missing the “note” word next to the “hightlight” word all these time using the ipad 😂. Now im going to fiddle with the kindle app

Haha you're welcome, no worries! Enjoy. It's always fun discovering new features (even if they've been there this whole time 😆).
