Best app for note taking ( college student)
- So I bought Nexus 7 ( without doing a lot of research about its note taking ability) and I need a good note taking app that does annotate PDF, write / draw with a stylus, and write text... any good ideas? I tried Evernote, I also tried Papyrus which is good, however no PDFs, and I tried many other apps.. they either don't have PDF or the "handwriting" ability...
any suggestions? and I'm willing to pay a ONE TIME FEE for a really good app for my classes...
Note: One of my professors already gives us notes, however his notes have blanks and the students need to fill them, they are in PDF format, and I need an app that will do that, I tried Adobe Reader, but it is not that great...
Thanks in advance...01-24-2014 02:27 AMLike 0 - Welcome to the forum Electrical1! Here are my two favourite apps that will do want you want. They both have free versions as well as paid, so you can try them out first.
Note Anytime: https://forums.androidcentral.com/e?...token=h8BT_Iq8
LectureNotes: https://forums.androidcentral.com/e?...token=WGvf5jVp
Note that LectureNotes needs their free PDF viewer to be able it import PDF files (https://forums.androidcentral.com/e?...token=8_0xwc4T).

- Thanks for these suggestion, I was thinking of an app that would also convert handwriting into text, basically an app like the NoteSuite my friend has on his Ipad... and which one do you prefer ( or better) Note Anytime or Lecture Note??01-24-2014 02:12 PMLike 0

What there needs to be is a keyboard that allows you to write cursive or notes and transcribe it as text. I like using evernote and keep and wouldn't give it up for supernote. That was one thing I really liked about the Note 8.0. You can do that on that tablet. But I still like my nexus 7 2013 better.01-24-2014 08:57 PMLike 0 - This one will be hard to find. I was looking on the play store the other day with no luck. When I had a TF101 and TF300T asus had an app called supernote. I don't think it will work unless you have an asus device but it could take whatever you drew and write it as text. I loved it. The galaxy note phone do it too. I did find SuperNote Pro on google play but it seems asus is charging a subscription for it. Not worth it.

It has cross app functionality. Any app that pulls up a keyboard will use '7 notes' to convert handwriting into typed text.01-28-2014 11:15 AMLike 0 - Xodo seems to fit the bill. Imports entire pdf (multiple pages at once). Edits are saved directly to original file in Dropbox with author. Multiple annotation sizes and colors plus comment bubbles and signatures. Also has some kind of file sharing feature, which I haven't tried out yet. No toggling or re-sizing during annotation and the the editing tab kind of blocks the slide in landscape view on my Galaxy Note 3. In portrait view the slides can get a little to small to annotate.05-11-2015 08:26 AMLike 0
