Side notes in each version seem to work as they normally do.
If you make side notes in NeoReader 3, they are associated with the book, not the page. You will not be able to see these notes if you then open up the book with NeoReader 2. However, they will still be there if you open up the book again with NeoReader 3.
Similarly, if you make side notes in NeoReader 2, they will be associated with the page, not the book. They will be there the next time you open up the book with NeoReader 2, but will not be visible if you open up the book with NeoReader 3. However, they will still be there if you go back to NeoReader 2.
But be very careful about using the Scribble function if you intend to use both versions of NeoReader with the same PDF.
Using Scribble in NeoReader 3 will work as normal. You will be able to see your scribbles in both versions of the NeoReader app. It will also not affect your side notes in NeoReader 3.
However, if you have made side notes in NeoReader 2, and then use Scribble in NeoReader 3, your side notes from NeoReader 2 will no longer be visible when you open the PDF again. I don't know if they are lost completely or just saved somewhere else one the device.
Also, if you use Scribble on a PDF in NeoReader 2, those scribbles will not be visible in NeoRedaer 3, but they will still be there if you open up the document again in NeoReader 2 UNLESS you have subsequently made some scribbles in NeoReader 3.
Using Scribble in NeoReader 3 seems to overwrite the PDF such that information associated with it from NeoReader 2 is lost.

Yes, this is a very handy function. The floating Navigation Ball is also very useful.
