S-pen Notes app that syncs with the cloud - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Hey kids. i'm looking to find a note app that utilizes the S-pen and sync with the cloud (dropbox, box.net etc). I tried Gnote, but it doesn't support the pen, just keyboard based input. Anyone know of an app that can do the above?

Evernote with Skitch works wonders. Check it out. The bonus to this is all of my past notes are now annotatable.

Bamboo Paper is out now and works nicely with the S Pen, however it's feature set is incredibly light. No undo/redo, and you'd need to share each page individually. It's far less capable than the iOS version, but hopefully they will improve it soon as it looks gorgeous.

Hey
There is a undo/redo and its pretty nice the way its handled
You do an undo by swiping two fingers towards the left... if u took too much out, simply slide back towards the right

S-Note and S-Memo Can Sync
S-Note and S-Memo can be synced with Google Drive and Evernote.

I have to agree give Papyrus a try. I have been using it for a week now and its pretty good.

It does but you have to enter credentials every time which is a real pain. If Samsung only had the brains to autosync s note to the Web they would have a product i would genuinely pay good money for. I love using it but tend to use Evernote with less features as my notes are automatically on the Web when i go to PC, just don't really get to use the s pen then, and skitch note sucks!
Try freenote, just got it, the UI is terrible but once you get used to menus the feature set is pretty amazing

While the native s-note file exension, which is snb, will upload to drop box you cannot open it in anything other than s note. I have found it is best to export your s-note note as a pdf and then upload it to dropbox, or drive or what have you. You can then import the pdf back into the s-note app and then continue to add to it. Not ideal, I agree but certainly doable. This is how I export my meeting notes that I take.
Hope this helps.

Recommend any good handwriting note taking app?

I tried freenote. It's pretty good. I can't set up different folders. Any other good ones with palm guard? Thanks.
I am using Asus Supernote.. it is okay, just a little too much lag while drawing.
There aren't a lot of apps to try. Bummer!

I like Handrite. Nice interface, easy to use, an overall good writing app.

I like freenote and Asus supernote. But I would love to find something that also records audio with the notes similar to the livescribe pen system.

What NOTEworthy apps are you going to get?

What apps are you going to get? I don't mean just general apps, i mean ones made for use with the S Pen.
Post your ideas below!
Here are some apps and soon to come apps for the S-Pen. Might be worth a bookmark.

Samsung also has an app on the Gnote which will take you to a web site where you can download some Samsung apps for the S pen. I recall one being a crayon game app for kids etc. Also EZ pdf which allows you to use the S pen to fill out or sign pdf forms etc.
Edit: I did not click the link above from droidal. Those look to be the Samsung apps.

I really hope that they release iAnnotate soon.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using Tapatalk
iAnnotate would be good. I'd love to see a version of Polaris office like we had on the HTC Flyer that integrates with the Stylus as well so we could mark-up Word and PPTs as well as PDFs.
Also, after reading the CNET review, it looks like we may not be getting S-Planner initially so I'm hoping they have it in the Samsung app store for an optional download (or someone can make the APK work from the international version work with the AT&T version).
From all the reviews I have seen it seems Samsung/AT&T didnt include Video Maker, like they did on the international version.
I want to see if I can track that down right away. He is a video of what you can do with it.

An already awesome app that I have been using on my streak is Freenote.

Great way to sync your Galaxy Note with Evernote and S-Memo

Using Evernote and S-Memo has been great. I am able to have access to all my S-Memo notes on all my devices, including my devices.
Gotta love Evernote. They keep updating and making it better all the time.
Yeah and now that Evernote has purchased Penultimate, we could see some great inking in future updates in Evernote.

Evernote is continuing to nail it, with things that are actually needed.

'Amazing Note' App is just that! Damn

Anyone remotely interested in Note Journal Apps, or a note freak like me will imediately recognize this as an extraordinary app.
The only note app I've seen that is as full featured is TT Note.
Its connected to Evernote and Google Calendar,syncs with GDrive,and Dropbox.
Really cool. Its a little, a little, cluttered looking but thats all changing.
Check it out in the play store.
I just found it the other day too. I have to agree it's more feature filled than any other Note centric note app I've tried. It's cleverly put together but it definitely needs a UI makeover.
Definitely deserves to be better known, I'm looking forward to learning to use it more.
I really like papyrus. Does what snote does but a lot better and some extra features

I used it on note 1 when i shifted to cm rom to fill the gap lack of snote created, but tht was shabby, it's definitely improved a lot, thnks fr ur post,wht worth to note is snote takes a hell lot more time to open n to create a simple note u need to go to three menu click

Is there a setting so that it only detects the S-Pen and not fingers?

For which app?

Is there any 4.3/4/4 ROM with S Pen apps?

Using the Note app with the S-Pen is important to me so I am wondering if there is any 4.3/4.4 ROM out there that will do this. Thanks.

You can download Bamboo from playstore. Worked good for me.

Check out these pens from Adonit. They eliminate your need for TouchWiz. They focus on iOS support, but they do work with Android. There are a number of YouTube videos you can review.

Papyrus is another option. I actually forgot this phone has an spen.

If you really want the Samsung apps, then the answer is no.
There are a ton of apps which work with the spen hardware just like on a stock rom, including palm rejection and spen button use etc, use the market and search.
Thanks guys, I will try all your suggestions out. I like the handwriting to text feature though.
There's nothing better than S-Notes but a few as good. Here are my top choices in order of best.
LectureNotes - though on KitKat, the writing lags a bit
Papyrus
Memo
Stylus Beta - Although not a note app, it allows you to use the S-Pen to input text
Write
Jotter
Bamboo Paper
OmniNote
