So I’m willing to replace my physical notebook for my Samsung Galaxy Tab 5, but I’m having trouble finding the exactly app for me.

I need a note taking app with basically 2 features:

  1. Convert handwrite to text
  2. Ability to select the page background (I want to use a daily template that I’ve already made)

I doesn’t expect it to be free, but it would be nice for an app that, at least, offer a free trial.

And it’d be nice if it could sync between devices, specially with my Mac.

Any suggestions?

EDIT:

I saw a lot of people telling about Samsung Notes, but the handwrite to text conversion simply doesn’t exist for me. I think it’s probably because I’m (still) not using a pen.

Another option would be using the Gboard handwriting feature, but I didn’t get used to it. I prefer writing directly at the place that the text needs to be.

    Kind of confused by wanting handwriting recognition while not using a pen? Are you writing with your finger?

    Hahahaha you have a good point and I’m sorry I didn’t explained that before! For now, yes, I’m writing with my finger!

    I’m taking a look to see if I’ll get used to taking notes and planning my day with my tablet before expending money in a pen that I’d only use for this.

    Also, thanks for the recommendation! I tried Good Notes but I think the handwriting recognition is a paid feature. I will take a look if there’s a trial!

      I tried many note taking apps before settling on Goodnotes, I know your pain! Sometimes an app gets sooo close but just doesn’t work quite the way you need it to… good luck!

        That’s exactly my point, specially because when I started making my daily planner for work it helped a lot with my ADHD, so the point is to find something to help even more! Thank you very much!
