What is the best app for sketching and handwritten notes?

Sketching and Handwritten Notes

I would like to be able to take handwritten notes and sketch with an Adonit Jot Pro. The S Note app is not sufficient because it appears to require an input zone, which is insufficient for sketching. I'd like to be able to rest my palm on the screen, as I would with paper, while making my notes. What's the best app for that with this tablet? Thanks!

I honestly haven't found anything like that except for the Note line (with the S-Pen). You can, however, 'block' certain areas of your screen to ignore input, which would allow you to do exactly what you want, but not with a specific app, for every app.
If you go to your Settings, on the DEVICE tab you'll find ACCESSIBILITY under Personalization. There, turn on INTERACTION CONTROL and that will let you block screen areas from input.

INKredible is supposed to have palm rejection. It kinda works but it's still not great. This is the wrong tablet if you want to be able to write notes out.

The Wacom app Bamboo Paper is pretty nice though.

The Note 10.1 is the closest thing to a Tab S with an S-Pen... but no AMOLED panel. I'm hoping this year Samsung will release a Note tablet with AMOLED screen and then I'll trade the Tab S for that one. I do miss the S-Pen on the tablet, but the AMOLED screen is superb (plus greater battery life).
