Note app with text handwriting recognition - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Themes and Apps

Hello
I just picked up the note 10.1 and after some reading around have downloaded and played with snote, papyrus, lecture notes, and note anytime and so far am not too impressed with either.
I'm looking for an app that takes notes mostly via handwriting recognition and allows me to free draw as well for meetings then export said notes into .doc or pdf (reason why I bought the note in the first place). .
What app are you all using for note taking at meetings and such that does a good job with handwriting recognition?

So far I feel I will likely use polaris word and the handwriting keyboard to input. Easy to make headings and in a common editable format. Then for sketches I use sketchbook pro and insert the pic into the document.
But it's not perfect. Wasn't impressed with snote really. Only had mine for 2 days though.

You can always use built-in handwriting recognition within any note taking app. Or use MyScript Stylus beta, works very well.
I'm using SPenBoard switcher, any time I use the pen it switches to Stylus beta, otherwise it's the keyboard for input.

I use Mazec2 handwriting keyboard that'll work with any application, I tried MyScript Stylus and Mazec just has the edge, but it's a close call - they're both very good at what they do.

Do you find it better than the inbuilt samsung handwriting though? I've found it quite good and can be used anywhere a keyboard entry can be

Cheers. MyScript stylus I think you meant. I've had a quick go and its very good. Recognition is great. Just can't choose alternate words after the last one but its very accurate so less need.

I'm trying to find this app "SpenBoard switcher". I went to google play store and couldn't find it. Where did you find it?
Sorry, I found it but it says my tablet needs to be rooted. Is there an alternative for a non rooted tablet?

Please anyone know about any MyStylus Beta mod? Anyone please????e????
Hi there you amazing people,
I have been a user of My Stylus Beta for a very long time and its by far the best handwriting recognition software ever. The problem is that the company has dumped the software and its no longer working anymore. Even when you decide to use it anyway you get it and you have resigned yourself to eternal usage of this app without further updates,but they took that option off the table when the app stopped working on the devices and its not even available for download on Google Play anymore , pls can anyone help? would be eternally grateful if someone can help.Thanks so very much. :crying:e????e????

Actually there are not comparable in anyway. Stylus Beta is by far superior and has a seamless writing style. There are some kinks to be worked out for sure but its far better. I think the company made a bad call cancelling out the app without giving it a chance.

Handwriting App
Try Nebo, to find in the Playstore.

[Q] Note Taking on Touchpad?

Now that I'm assured I'm getting a touchpad, the burning question remains; is there some type of note taking app I can use, or am I forced to use the on screen keyboard, or a bluetooth keyboard to type notes during class?
This is exactly what I was wondering!

maybe I'm reading it different but I think the OP is looking for an app that does hand written notes both those apps suggested do not have that option
am looking for the same,very surprised nobody has come up with something, there must be 10/20 ipad apps that do this so I assume there's a market for the app its something I use everyday on my ipad
There is an app called Just Draw in the store which may be what you are looking for.
It hasn't been released yet but I think this is what the OP is looking for: LINK

That's the best/only I've found too. It seems more for making doodles, but it should work.

This sounds neat. I hope it comes out well.
If you setup a chroot enviroment you can use cellwrite for OCR handwriting or xournal for regular note taking and annotating pdfs.

Good Notetaking App ?

I've been struggling with finding a good note-taking app for the NT. Mind you the best ones out there (like Quill; queue: envy) are only compatible for Honeycomb or ICS. So until CM9 is complete, I'm stuck looking for something compatible with Gingerbread.
One is dealing with the palm recognition that glitches out the stylus' path in the app. This, I've "solved" this by placing a cloth beneath my hand while writing with a stylus.
The remaining problem is an app that can keep up. Sketchbook Mobile and Drawing Pad actually are the most accurate that I've tried, but they're slow and laggy and not meant for note taking. I've tried FreeNote, Note Plus, and Note Everything to find that they struggle to capture script-like handwriting accurately.
Does anyone have any ideas? Suggestions? If not, I'm suck carrying a pad of paper to class until CM9 is complete.
I use Evernote and Springpad those are the best, primarily because they can sync your notes to all your devices, so you never lose them .

Try Evernote Skitch. May not be the perfect app you're looking for, but I use it to jot down notes.
Or Evernote + Swype.

[Q] Looking for note taking app(with stylus)like notes plus (for ipad) --> palm pad!
Hey there,
I am looking for some app for android with a palm pad like the app notes plus for ipad has it
http://notesplusapp.com/
I found "make notes beta" but it is really not much more of a beta i have the feeling with input being very buggy and so on.
Does anyone have an idea if there is something like that?
Or is there a way to somehow deactivate multitouch support for some time in order to write with a stylus?
Thanks for your help!

Take a look at Skitch, it supports annotation and writing with a stylus. It also integrates well with Evernote, which is great for storing and taking all kinds of notes, with cross platform support.

I had a look at it but from the looks of the youtube video it seems like all the persons writing there definitely lift their palm / wrist when writing. Is there any palm rejection/ some kind of pad?
Thanks for your help already!

[APPS] That work with S-PEN

Hey guys!
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 forum is pretty dang quiet! Lets get some discussion going on!
Which brings me to this, Post apps that you know work with the S-Pen / button click
Here is a couple apps that I know that are not samsung that work with S-Pen
DOSBox Turbo
Description: The S-Pen works perfectly as a mouse, it senses it and even the button acts like a right click! That means you can boot up old games like Red Alert and play them with the S-Pen just fine! Starcraft works wonders as well!
Intergration level: Excellent
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fishstix.dosbox&hl=en
This list is incomplete, I will be adding more as I test further. Yoru input is needed! :victory:

Does MyScript Notes do audio recordings and nested folders? It looks interesting but without a trial version I am unwilling to fork over $8 to try it to see.
Drawing Pad works.
Also the free "Galaxy" version you get with your Note of "Mobile Sketchbook" works very well. You have to press a shortcut in your app drawer to get it to install.
I like Handy Notes and its integration with the contacts, calendar, etc.

No to both, sorry.

Quill, a neat vector note taking app. I think it's even opensource.
Just bought it and it works amazingly good. I tried watcraft and xcom 2. How do you handle map scrolling though? I can't figure out a way that lets you scroll the map around nicely.

"Microsoft Remote Desktop" works perfectly :good:
Jump Desktop works really well including right-click if you have air command disabled.
Q: Does anyone know if there is a way to selectively disable air command for some apps? I would like to leave it enabled globally but disable it for Jump so that it doesn't pop up when I click the button to perform a right-click. Thanks.

S-apps are totally dependent on the TouchWiz framework.
There is NO WAY you can port them except maybe convert to PDF.
I found this out after a few weeks using my Note 1 3 years ago. Ever since then, I have used Handy Note Pro, and recently I discovered DioNote, which is perfect for the X1.
Although I love my Note phones very much, I advise everybody NOT to use S-note or S-memo, but use these other great apps instead.
thx

The Adonit Jot Pro or Jot Mini ( I have this) works wonderfully.
I tested many drawing/sketching/noting apps on the X1, the best is DioNote with individual stroke rendering.
DioNote does not recognize your text, but each stroke is an element which can be edited.
Papyrus, Adobe, HandyNote, etc....all the stylus recognition sucked.
Thanks a lot. Dionote looks great. It has zoom panel to write on like other iOS apps (GoodNotes, Zoomnote).
However, I still can't find an active stylus (narrow tip stylus using battery, without bluetooth connection) working well on Android. I tried Biopen which said it supports both ios and android and found that it sucks on Android, barely useable.
I intend to use it for notetaking, mainly.

The screen on the X1 is capacitive, so you won't be able to use any active stylus.
Adonit Jot/ Jot Mini has a narrow tip and very good accuracy.
The good thing is that Dionote's zoom panel registers the Jot stylus incredibly well. I was very surprised because all the other note/sketch apps can't register a long stroke properly without break, or I had to draw/write slowly.
