On a scale of 1-10 I give this update a 9.
I am really enjoying the ease of using the library now and the calendar is great, and customizing the icons on the android menu bar is fun. Overall I am in favor of this update.
The only part of the update that is making me want to rip my hair out is the journal layout changes. I saw from the release notes that I was not going to like it and using it in class today proved that I do not like this new menu for the journal. Previously everything was just 1 quick tap away from use, now I have to tap menu .....wait....tap <tool><color><etc> ....wait.....tap what I want. Today's notes made me realize just how much I like to modify pen thickness and color while taking notes.
I do not understand why the entire journal was redesigned.
1)It does not seem to provide any addictional screen estate.
Top was 2 lines now 1 line, bottom was 1 line now 2 lines.
2) All of the functionality of the journal is now hidden way in the easy to not notice menu text.
