Severe lag in notes containing copied and pasted text after Notability 16.2.2 update

I updated to Notability 16.2.2, but the issue is still not fixed for me.

I still experience severe lag and frame drops in notes containing copied/pasted text inside large notebooks. This never happened in older versions of Notability.

I also still have the issue where pasted text automatically changes to Times New Roman, and line spacing/formatting sometimes becomes inconsistent.

I contacted Notability support, but so far I only received an AI response. I contacted them again afterward, but I still haven’t received a reply from a human yet.

Is anyone else still experiencing this after 16.2.2?

Notability suddenly became very laggy after auto update on iPad

I need help with a sudden issue in Notability on my iPad.

I was studying normally on Notability and everything was working fine. Then I put my iPad on charge and left it for a while. When I came back, I noticed that Notability had automatically updated.

After that, the app started having problems:

• ⁠My notes became very slow and laggy • ⁠Large notebooks (around 120+ pages) take a long time to open or become unresponsive • ⁠Scrolling inside pages is very delayed • ⁠Overall performance dropped suddenly compared to before

I already tried restarting the device, but the issue is still there.

Has anyone experienced something like this after a Notability update? Any possible fixes would really help

Update: I discovered that the lag only happens in notes that contain typed text from the keyboard or copied/pasted text.

Notes that only contain handwriting seem to work normally without any lag or frame drops.

Update 2: I also noticed two more issues.

Whenever I copy and paste text, the font automatically changes to Times New Roman.

In addition, all previously pasted notes now have a different line spacing—the spacing between lines became much tighter,
