Samsung Notes is a free mobile application for recording notes via text, images, or voice recordings. It’s similar to Evernote and OneNote with its performance and capabilities, designed for Android devices. You can also import saved files from other apps like Memo and S Note. 

There are many other features that make Samsung Notes stand out from the competition. For instance, it can recognize your handwriting no matter which pen settings you activate. Also, if you want to save your content online, you can sync with Samsung Cloud.

Top features of Samsung Notes

One of the best features of Samsung Notes is screen-off memos. You’ll need the S Pen to activate it, but you can write notes even while your phone’s screen is off and your notes are automatically saved to the application. There’s also a quick erase function where you can use your finger to clear portions of your saved text or images.

Storage on your device

The note-taking app automatically saves your memos to your phone’s internal storage. You can change the default location to an external card if you’re worried about losing it or taking up too much space on your device. Alternatively, you can sync it to the online cloud.

Regular updates

Samsung Electronics continues to update the application with bug fixes and new functions in an effort to keep up with the competition. Voice recordings and music are some of the latest editions, but new features mean a larger app size. Also, the more notes you make with intensive media, the more storage space you’ll need.

Our take

Taking notes is essential for keeping a record of vital information you may need in the future or quickly cramming a memo when you’re out on the road. Some people use it for storing recipes, while others use it as a dream journal. The number of uses is almost infinite, and the only limit is your imagination. Just remember to check if you have enough storage for your creativity.

Should I download it?

Yes, if you own an Android device and need to keep notes. There’s almost no need to download a different application.
