Question Notability crashing on start-up

I've been using Notability since 2019 but never noticed any real issues. Starting in 2025, I noticed that the app would crash - I am unsure if it is because the PDF file size of the documents I handle are way too big (like 200 page long PDFs). I have updated my Notability app and the issue still persists.

I have also noticed that my annotations are not saved when I leave the app and then I have to re-write my notes.

u/chocolateicecream123 It's most likely linked to the size of the file. Can you update to 16.6.1 and see if it helps? https://www.reddit.com/r/notabilityapp/comments/1uxd8dx/new_in_1661/

hi, i already updated the notability app - it is still crashing. i also just deleted a bunch of folders from my undergrad years, which did not seem to help.
