So I was thinking of buying this capacitive stylus: http://www.amazon.com/Acase-Capacit...aybook/dp/B003ULE6GU/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
But I was wondering if there are any decent note taking apps designed for use with a pen. Because if there aren't, it's kind of pointless, I don't think there's really anything else I would use the stylus for, except maybe drawing.
Thanks!
I'm not sure of a good app, but I do own this stylus. Once I get my Transformer tomorrow, I will let you know how well it works.
Not sure to what extent you plan to use notes, but I use "Note Everything Pro" and absolutely love it!

Handwritten notes
If you're talking about handwritten notes, some people from the xoom forum suggested handrite, check it out and tell me if it works with the transformer. There is a free version with ads. Also many users suggest get rid of the auto insert feature through the settings for the app and it becomes much more usable.
Amazon 1-click Order is dangerously easy. Just ordered it. I'll play around with the note taking apps and let you know what I find. Tablet's coming tomorrow, stylus should arrive on Tuesday.
I'm using flext9 it can be used as swipe which works faster than the one installed on the transformer and it also has a writing to text feature that's pretty cool.I take my notes on evernote which also has a share button to email/ share it to a computer. You can also create an account and sync your documents up to access anywhere.
I can't believe this, from the time since the beginning of Android to now, NO ONE has created a combinable Text & Handwriting note program.
Where is the app that lets you draw and type within the same note? This was possible in Windows Mobile, 10 years ago!!!
All the programs available seem to at best be able create drawing notes separately from typing note, WTF?

Hey dummy, read the post above yours.
I can confirm this. FlexT9 works great on the Transformer. It does an AWESOME-fast Swype style. Then it also has a handwriting-recognition mode that allows you to write within any app.
Screw note-taking apps, when you have a keyboard like this you don't need them.
The post above mine previous (#6) mentions two things:
FlexT9: an input method, not a program that supports scribble drawing & text notes
EverNote: an notes program, without any scribble drawing support
Care to enlighten me with your wisdom again?
+1 for flexT9, it is now my keyboard of choice too, much quicker than handwriting or typing in my opinion.
There is another note taking app called Tabnotes, currently under development. It looks very promising and could potentially be the killer notepad app. Works really well with handwriting with a stylus.
A trial is available on the market for you to try out, the program has been developed with tablets in mind.
At present you cannot use keypad entry, I have emailed the developer of the app for this function, we'll see what happens.
i am using writepad with Evernote and it works flawlessly. I was nervous because the writepad application cost $10. But if you go to the developers site you can test it free for24 hours.

Do you know if this will sync with multiple devices?
Edit - I found out it currently does not sync with multiple devices.
Hello all!
I have been lurking around these forums for a while but finally decided to post. So, I just got my transformer yesterday, but now I need a good note taking app. I was wondering if any of you guys know of an app that allows you to take notes with a tree hierarchy like in MS OneNote? In addition, a note taking app that also has notebook support like in MS OneNote also? Any help is greatly appreciated!
Evernote
Evernote doesn't really have options to bold, italicize, or underline right? Or at least in the android app. It also doesn't have a tree hierarchy when taking notes also no option for bullet points. This is most important to me because I need to organize my notes that I take in class.
You could use the stock polaris office...

Evernote is NOT what he asked for. Thats a super simple note collection sort of app. Have you seen a proper ipad esque note taking app? Evernote is pre-school compared to the level of note taking apps they have on the ipad. Pre-school.
Everyone always replies with evernote. So frustrating.
i think you would be best going with a word processing app like Polaris, quick office or docs to go.
there the best for taking notes
Hmmmm, it seems like my options are limited for now. I suppose the notebook feature isnt too important. Is there any note taking apps that allow you to bold, add bullet points and have a tree hierarchy? Or is that asking too much?

Well I guess we can use your option"criticism" where do we find that on the market.
I tried out MaplePaint last night and it seems to be okay. It saves files in SVG format so they can later be converted into png/jpeg/etc. I would assume that SVG is also easier to convert to plain text with an OCR than other formats since the lines are cleaner.

I'm curious now! As a LONG TIME evernote user (6000+ notes), I haven't seen anything that compares. My wife uses the ipad, but she would be interested in a good note taking app. What do you recommend?
As for taking notes in Android, I find Colornotes to be fast and efficient for things like jotting down the details of a phone call or for creating a "sticky note" on your home screen. I also like the fact that notes remain open when task switching, so you can easily copy and paste bits from other apps without having to constantly open and save a note.

Why not Google Documents? They just recently put out a Docs app, and it appears to run fine in Gingerbread so far.
I like it because I can write notes on the PC which quickly sync to my phone and my tablet. It's easy to write a note and refer to it later. One example is shopping lists. I whip one out on the PC at home and whip out the DX in the store to check it.
Springpad?

+1 for springpad
Use it for most things, shopping list, Todo list, managing small projects, diary, looking up near by restaurants and has a cool widget.
And it syncronises with your springpad account so I got access to stuff on the phone aswell
Also, re Springpad I think they have just announced a Honeycomb version.
Stupid phatware still hasn't come up with their phatpad. I've used it on the Windows Mobile platform and it is superb.
It can do free writing too as well as text and shapes.

Android's note taking apps all are underwhelmingly basic compared to the Windows Mobile selection.
Android stinks on note taking. I used to use handnotes by choung . No app even comes close to that one. I would pay 100 if someone could make a note app like that. I realllllly like being able to write freehand notes

I am trying to find a good note taking app to go along with my GT-P6210, and I came across the Supernote app on the Asus Transformer. I have heard some great things about it, but I can't find it in the app market. Does anyone know if its compatible with the Tab 7 plus?
Also, if you know of any good note taking apps for a college environment, feel free to suggest. I am looking to be able to make bullets and sub bullets (something evernote cant do) and I would like to be able to write or draw directly into my notes with a stylus.
Evernote w/ skitch allows me to write/draw, but the downfall is that it groups all my drawings seperate from my notes.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Supernote is specific to that tablet but there is an extracted apk though it's not optimized for our tab. Search the forums for it.
You can try quill.

I looked up quill and I may be wrong, but it looks like you can only write. But I found a Supernote apk so ill try that out and let you guys know how it is.
It's working, but not fit to screen... deleted.
Supernote is such a good app...........but it doesn't fit the screen. The sidebar gets cut off so you can't use certain features. It would be amazing if it was optimized for our size tablets
I like Supernote so much I've adapted to using it on the GTP with parts of the app being off screen. I'm hoping that if Asus ever releases the Memo 7" tablet to market there will be a version of Supernote for it. They've teased it at the 2011 & 2012 CES.
alternative to supernote
The app that I use more is Catch Notes, cause it lets me syncro with my phone, but it is not on the same league.
Give GNotes a try. I just recently discover it. It has bullets, you can type, handwrite, attach a picture, a video or some sound.
But actually, I was so busy trying to find a good app, that I didn't realize how good the stock application included in the tablet is. I'm taking about the one that can be found in the bottom bar. You can attach pictures, you can synchronize (haven't try yet), you can write anyplace in the sheet, handwrite (better than GNotes) and it floats on top of the other windows, allowing you to take notes while you are reading an article, for example.

I totally agree with you. The stock app is totally good! It even syncs well with Google docs.

Can we have this ported over to the TPT? What would we need other than the .apk file?
Tried it, wouldn't install.
I tried carrying over the libs and other data too with the .apk and nada.
Anyone else have any luck with trying to get this to work? I would really like to see this on our tablets. I think one of the issues is that the Snote app has the ability to split the screen so you can use a web browser.
True. The apps are modified by Samsung for the multiscreen function.
So we really don't stand a chance at getting this or any other app from the Note 10.1 to work on our devices.
Not if it's one of the multiscreen apps. FWIW, can't port NM to the Note, either.
What about trying to port over the multi screen? What controls that?
I have no idea, but hey, go for it.
It's hard to tell what makes what works, but I do know that the interface that Samsung uses is way different than Lenovo.
Agreed. Frankly, I'm not hopeful for the porting of native apps either direction.
Hi guys, I've bought a samsung galaxy tab a 10.1 2016 (the model without the s pen) and an Adonit ADJD2B Jot Dash 2 on amazon, I'm searching for app that allow me to take note easily and to edit and write on pdf files.
what do you suggest?
Also I know that this pen is not a bluetooth pen, do you know any bluetooth pen that works with my tablet which include palm rejection function?
thanks for your help
After that I've tried many apps, no one of these is satisfying. The one that I prefer is INKredible but I've many problems like so much lag on scrolling pdf pages and sometimes don't read correctly pdf file that other apps loads normally.
Please suggest me something, I am searching apps like notability on ipad
Editing on pdf? I guess thats a no no.
