- Elvin LewisUX Designer · WrittenPersonally, I really like NoteLedge. It's a good app for all kinds of note-taking, both handwritten and typed. It features quite a few pens and paper styles so you can make your notes as creative as you'd like. Another cool thing is that you can draw and sketch in this app and the overall experience does feel quite realisitc (talking about the handwriting functions). All your notes are synced so you can work on several devices, but even if you're just working on your phone, it's still pretty convinient.Jared YoungC++ Developer). · WrittenWhat I like most about this app is its ease of use and cool tools - your notes can be as interactive as you want, and it's also easy to keep things organized, which is a big plus. Creating handwritten notes is easy and you have lots of tools at your disposal for that.Juniper DavidsonDesigner — UI / UX. · WrittenOne of my favorite applications out there for handwritten notes.

- Prajakt KaranjkarContent Marketer · WrittenI would always recommend Google Keep for its simplicity and simply fluid user experience. Keep may feel a basic note-taking app at first sight but it does a lot than one can expect. Moreover, Keep Android app just received Google's new material design 2.0 interface, which makes taking notes on your Android phone extremely easy and interesting. It shows you link previews, you can create lists, to-dos add images, color-code your notes, sync it with your Gmail and lot more. While Evernote is the beast of note-taking apps, it may get somewhat difficult to understand the app better. Keep, on the other hand, may not provide all the features of Evernote but it's exactly what you need.

- Rico TrevisanAgile Coach & Visual Developer · WrittenMy current workflow is to take notes on pen and paper (Neuland markers, Bikablo technique). Afterwards digest them, take a photo, and scan them to Miro (née Realtime Board). Having it on the board allows me to further annotate the image and the notes will be in context, in the middle of our the team's board, backlog, etc..
