not only... but also

plain form + ばかりでなく / noun + ばかりでなく

ばかりでなく means not only the first item is true, but also the second. The second part often uses も.

It is a little more written than だけでなく and can be used for positive or negative content.

このアプリは便利なばかりでなく、デザインも分かりやすい。

This app is not only convenient, but its design is also easy to understand.

Do not make the second part unrelated; it must add to the first.

Not just A; B too.
