i wish android has notability
I think that Evernote is too heavy and complicated, Google Keep is good, but has no folders. I use QwickNote, which has just the right features and not too complicated
Freenote!  I use it for everything.  Of all of the features that I do use it for (take a pic in the note, categorize by folder/subject, use a wallpaper for the background, add audio notes (for a meeting) )  The MOST useful thing to me right now is the feature that allows me to export my note (with the picture in it) to a pdf and share it. ÂÂÂ
Then, the other day, I find a way to make an index page so i can find my notes easily – I made a page that has each page listed and is a hypertext link…WHAT!!  Now if I could reorder the pages that would be cool but with the index page – it's unnecessary.
YodaNote for Android provide real WYSIWYG editor you have not ever seen before on Android.
YodaNote not provide storage but save your notes to your own Cloud Storage,such as Dropbox or Box.
YodaNote has many features other than any note-taking software.
â– CardView-style note preview and editing.
â– Edit-in-place,on Android or PC.
â– Sync your notes with your own Cloud Storage
â– Free to change background color and image of notes.
â– Easy to insert ASCII char,Emoticon and GIF image.
Well i use TREE NOTE to keep my notes in Hierarchy order.
What happened to Catch? They said recently they are quitting as of Aug 30, 2013, which makes me angry, but I like it far more than the often-sluggish Evernote…
I suggest using google keep, only downside cant organize notes, just color code them
Catch note is what I use and is my personal best one. Due to receiving the email.. looking for a similar note app now.
He forgot Catch notes (but i got an email saying that catch is ending by august 30th. I love this note taking app though.
I am using Evernote. But I have many other apps that I handwrite to text with Galaxy Note 2 S-pen.
papyrus try it
Check out qPinner on Google Play.
You missed the awesommest app for this purpose… CATCH NOTES…
use it….
Microsoft OneNote?
Can you please tell me whats a good handwriting to text app for android?
What keyboard are you using?
I've tried them all, I am keeping Google Keep
Used to use colornote, it's great – but now I've switched to Google Keep – it's a good balance between simplicity and functionality, and it works so simply between my tablet and phone.
Google Keep ARE the best. Evernote is not safe.
S Note and aNote (awesome note) in my Galaxy N8…
Catch note
Papyrus is the best app for taking notes.
I use a app called Ultra Notes
Are you in a hurry ? Too fast for a normal review
s not + google keep
S Note is very good. Password protection and it syncs with gmail. S Notes ftw.
Catch notes wins.
google keep is the best !
Winderlist ???
Good old Catch Notes
where is catch notes
Mobislenotes!
I've tried a few note taking apps and my favorite is definitely Wunderlist. It's beautiful, simple and perfect.

Drinking is bad Son!
How the heck is Jot not inside
Where is catch notes in this??? catch is great
You should do an Xperia SP review
How could u forget catch it's great and has multi platform and cloud
You forgot "Out of Milk" I love that one.
Colornote is great
Where is Springpad, it is easily the best one out here. SamNote and FreeNote don't have enough votes yet to give them a good rating.
Google Keep is simply the best and my long awaited app..It syncs all my notes to be accessed from anywhere.
Right now there are a few features but hopefully Google updates it in the future.
I have tried out MANY notetaking apps, and ultimately the most important thing is to have it EASILY ACCESSIBLE..so a widget is ideal. ColorNote was one I used for a long time, until Google Keep came along with its sync.
Google Keep, trust me.
I prefer google keep because of its simple interface and its unlikelihood of being hacked because it is a google service.
Personally I like Google Keep the best.
12th and I prefer Google keep
