Samsung Notes is a versatile tool that allows you to create and edit documents across your mobile, tablet, or PC, and collaborate seamlessly with others. With the S Pen, you can add annotations to PDFs and create rich documents that include images or voice recordings. The app's connectivity extends to various formats like PDF, Microsoft Word, and Microsoft PowerPoint, making it a powerful tool for document management.
To start using Samsung Notes, simply tap the + icon in the bottom right corner of the main screen to create a new note. These notes will be saved with the "sdocx" extension, ensuring compatibility and ease of use across devices.
For those concerned about privacy, Samsung Notes offers robust security features. To protect your notes, navigate to the main screen, tap More Options in the upper right corner, select Settings, and then choose Lock Note. Here, you can set up a note locking method and password. To lock individual notes, go to the note you wish to protect, tap More Options, and select Lock Note.
If you prefer handwritten notes, simply tap the Handwriting icon while composing a note, and your handwriting will appear directly on the note. Adding photos is just as easy; tap the photo icon within your note to either take a new photo or load, tag, and edit an existing one. For voice recordings, tap the Voice Recording icon to capture audio and integrate it into your note.
Samsung Notes also offers a variety of writing tools. By tapping the Pen icon, you can choose from pens, fountain pens, pencils, highlighters, and more, along with different colors and thicknesses. If you need to make corrections, the Eraser icon allows you to remove unwanted content selectively.
For those transitioning from other note-taking apps, Samsung Notes supports importing notes and memos created in S Note and Memo through the Smart Switch feature. You can also import previously created notes and memos using your Samsung account, ensuring a smooth transition and access to your existing data.
Regarding app access permissions, Samsung Notes requires certain permissions to function optimally. Required permissions include access to Storage for saving or loading document files. Optional permissions, which enhance the app's functionality but are not necessary for basic use, include access to Photos and Videos, Notifications, Music and Audio, Phone, Microphone, and Camera. You can still use the app's core features without granting these optional permissions.
