FAQ 

How do I know if I downloaded the right version?

To verify you have installed the correct version, open the Notability app, tap the settings icon at the bottom of the left side panel and view "Subscriptions." The current plan should show as "Notability for Organizations." If you don't see this plan, delete the app and redownload it through the Self Service app. 

Why can’t I access all the features in Notability?

If you have downloaded Notability from the Self Service app, you have the "Notability for Organizations" plan and can access all the same features available in Notability Plus. The only difference is that Notability Plus users have access to premium Planners, Templates and Stickers.
