Very happy so far with my Transformer Prime keyboard dock, but I've searched high and low for an app with this feature and had no luck. I just want any note-taking or word processing app that supports indented bullet points or numbering with multiple levels of indentation. Preferably it would work with the tab key. Polaris Office works with the tab key but not with bullets; Evernote and Springpad didn't work, and neither did the built-in Asus app. Surely someone else uses this feature for taking class notes? Any suggestions? It seems like such a simple thing...
Maybe try a simplenote client? (I use Flicknote, pending rolling my own). Or some other system that uses a syntax like markdown ir restructured text for it?

+1 I'd love to find an app with this capability. I was so excited to use my TP for class and note taking, but so far it's been nothing but a hassle.

I believe it's possible with QuickOffice HD, using the indent key plus the buttons setting.
It's not automatic though.

Just tested with OfficeSuite Pro. Seems to work just fine with the TFP and the tab key; no settings needed changing. It does only support 9 levels of indentation though. See screenshot.

Thanks so much! This is exactly what I was looking for.
Yup just tried office suite pro before i saw this it works great this is exactly what I wanted for classes. This is sort of unrelated but does anyone know of a pdf reader app that lets takes your compiled notes/highlights and turns it into a document? I use repligo and it works great but I would love if the notes I take could be saved as a doc

[Q] Looking for note taking app(with stylus)like notes plus (for ipad) --> palm pad!
Hey there,
I am looking for some app for android with a palm pad like the app notes plus for ipad has it
http://notesplusapp.com/
I found "make notes beta" but it is really not much more of a beta i have the feeling with input being very buggy and so on.
Does anyone have an idea if there is something like that?
Or is there a way to somehow deactivate multitouch support for some time in order to write with a stylus?
Thanks for your help!

Take a look at Skitch, it supports annotation and writing with a stylus. It also integrates well with Evernote, which is great for storing and taking all kinds of notes, with cross platform support.

I had a look at it but from the looks of the youtube video it seems like all the persons writing there definitely lift their palm / wrist when writing. Is there any palm rejection/ some kind of pad?

Hi, I purchased the TF300 a while back but didn't purchase the dock with it. I recently purchased the dock and entered my first year in University. Since I'm new to using an Android tablet for school work, are there any apps that you can recommend? Thanks.
Kingsoft Office is a very good mobile office suit, you can save the files as .doc(x) so editing them at home with your desktop is possible, it's fast intuitive and easy to learn.
I'd highly recommend a good and fast PDF reader, something like readaee pro is a good investment. ezpdf is not bad but you clearly need to decline some of it's permissions the app is way to nosy.
Also a good file-manager such as Root-Explorer, Total-Commander can save you a lot of team and helps to organize your pdf, uni files.
Quickoffice, iAnnotate, ES file explorer, and Any.do would be my recommendation
The one you will find is the place that you are not looking, and no, it is not behind you
The new google docs app is now much more dock friendly, and I end up using that a lot because my school has google domain accounts for everyone.
For offline, I do use Kingston as someone else previously mentioned.

Hey guys!
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 forum is pretty dang quiet! Lets get some discussion going on!
Which brings me to this, Post apps that you know work with the S-Pen / button click
Here is a couple apps that I know that are not samsung that work with S-Pen
DOSBox Turbo
Description: The S-Pen works perfectly as a mouse, it senses it and even the button acts like a right click! That means you can boot up old games like Red Alert and play them with the S-Pen just fine! Starcraft works wonders as well!
Intergration level: Excellent

This list is incomplete, I will be adding more as I test further. Yoru input is needed! :victory:

Does MyScript Notes do audio recordings and nested folders? It looks interesting but without a trial version I am unwilling to fork over $8 to try it to see.
Drawing Pad works.
Also the free "Galaxy" version you get with your Note of "Mobile Sketchbook" works very well. You have to press a shortcut in your app drawer to get it to install.
I like Handy Notes and its integration with the contacts, calendar, etc.

Quill, a neat vector note taking app. I think it's even opensource.
Just bought it and it works amazingly good. I tried watcraft and xcom 2. How do you handle map scrolling though? I can't figure out a way that lets you scroll the map around nicely.

For those looking for an ebook reader and tending to use or even buy Aldiko, the following information might be of interest.
I purchased Aldiko and with change from Note 10.1 to Note 10.1 2014, pages with graphics were suddenly displayed as blank.
Some tests showed me finally, that Aldiko is yet not able to cope with the screen resolution of the Note 10.1 2014 (if run in split screen mode, the pages are displayed properly).
Unfortunately, although Aldiko knows about the problem since October and the reason since December, nothing happend. Instead support requests are simply closed without any comment, there is no answer or reaction from the support at all.
Presently, I cannot recommend Aldiko anymore. A pity as I paid for the software.
I use mantano and moored both work well and I can have books on my so card
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk
I have a subscription on the beam store where Aldiko offered the option to download purchased ebooks within the app.
That's why I purchased (and I wanted to support the developers as the app was good on my GT-N8000).
What about MoonReader?

If you need something fast mupdf beats all competition. The UI is kind of clunky but when it comes to speed of rendering pdf it can't be beat.

I have MoonReader, what I missed is the direct integration of eBook stores (buying and downloading).
And what I do not understand is the fact that Aldiko knows about the problem but did not fix it and the app is still available for the Note 10.1 2014 in the app store.
I like the Mantano, the interface is nice and clean and it handles notes well other than the insistence of heavily branding exported note review sheets.
The biggest issue with Mantano is it's inability to handle pdf files. If you select text from a pdf and copy to another application or activate TTS it splits w or ds wi th l o ts of sp ace s, so it renders TTS and copy functions as useless. I wrote to Mantano as at £6.69 it's the most expensive single app I've bought, I had the following response:
" Thank you for your email. Yes we are aware of the issue that you report. It is caused by the software component (from Adobe) that we are using to parse the PDF. We are investigating fixes but we currently have nothing really satisfying. We don't let it be, we'll try to fix but it might take longer than we'd like..."
This is unacceptable as far as I'm concerned for a paid app, ezPDF can cope well with pdfs, but the interface is the equivalent of an ageing digital turd.

Thanks for the hint... now I just need to get the part working after login (I am always sent to the web site instead of showing the content of the private section inside the app).
As Aldiko still just closes all support requests without answering, I contacted Google for a refund. And I got the refund.
So, as a result people should clearly thing before buying Aldiko with regard to the support policy and the behaviour in fixing bugs.
I like iReader Pro, has no problems with everything I throw at it (epub, prc, mob), works well.
It is free on the p[lay store and has no ads that I've seen. Liked it from Gingerbread over Aldiko...
Give it a shot... Price is right...
I used to use Moon reader, but now I tend to just upload my drm free books to google play and use the play book reader. It syncs, it reads to you (with ivona voice amy, it's tolerable) and it stays in your cloud library. And it has the smoothest 3d page turn animation. I usually end up buying a Kindle ebook, use calibre plug in to dedrm in windows then convert to epub then either upload to google play on the pc, or upload it later when accessing my calibre library with the calibre companion app.

Try cool reader. Its not as fancy as others but it has more settings than any other reader. You can really adjust your reading environment. It also supports tts. I own the others but i usally use cool reader.

Try smartQ reader

Smoothest pdf reader i have seen on android bar none, easily as smooth at rendering as ipad imo.
Annotation also works perectly, only downside is some of the menus look a little clunky and feel a little outdated.

EZPDF Reader. Absolutely the best. It's the only reader I use on my tablet. I run a business and use it everyday to edit pdf's.
Xodo Docs, allows reading/annotating/signing.
It's still young, but it's got potential. Using it for university to annotate texts.
Fast, lightweight and not as bloated as ezPDF & co.
Used to use qPDF but it got buggy over the last couple of updates, so switched to Xodo Docs last week and even though I paid for qPDF I might actually never look back to it considering Xodo Docs is free and already better than qPDF.

Just tried that it works great for the most part except freehand can't seem to catch up with my handwriting. Also in freehand, double tap to zoom is not disabled so it zooms while writing quickly. The only other issue is it doesn't allow snap view of a single page in landscape. You can only do 2 page snap view or continuous vertical scroll. The rendering and all the other features seem great though.

nothing good yet?
Annotations work extremely badly in xodo. Pretty much worse than any other I have tried.
I also found RadaeePDF reader, which is pretty good, though it does spline fitting to the written annotations.
For me, I haven't found a good replacement for ezpdf for articles, and eBook droid for books.
EBook droid actually has the best spen handling. Take out pen and start writing. No icon to click.
But, sadly, spen is slow in eBookdroid. Strange, since on the note 2 it is quite fluid.

I tried pretty much every PDF app in the store but I always fall back to EZPDF which I bought for 50c a year ago when it was on sale. It's not perfect and I will keep looking for a better app that will come up eventually, but for my use ezpdf is the best pdf app on android atm. IMHO.

New funcion in papyrus for pdf editng
Inviato dal mio SM-P905 utilizzando Tapatalk
I just tried papyrus with pdf. It really works very nicely!
adding notes is very smooth, and the S-pen can directly write without needing to click anything or click done at the end.
What I found missing:
1. No highlighting, so I haven't found a way to specify transparency for the pen.
2. You can't flip pages with the volume button, or with a swipe - you have to click an icon at the top of the screen.
3. After PDF is imported, page rendering is slow. Flipping through the document takes some time.
4. No search
5. No links are followed, no table of contents.
6. Can't add pages to PDFs for notes.
And, a final comment: Don't buy the toolbox (which allows you to add text to your notes), it is really crappy!

Mantano Reader Premium, baby. It handles PDFs like it ain't no thang. It's literally the only good EPUB and PDF reader/annotator on the market. It's super smooth, nice cataloging features and good interface and tools. I've never been able to replace it after 2 years.

Nice reader. But, couldn't find any S-pen support. Palm will continue to put junk on screen while drawing with the pen.
Of course this means you can't zoom in or pan while annotating.
Only tested for 5 minutes, and then refunded the 8.36 euro, so maybe I missed how to activate these features...
Has anyone used PDF import for Papyrus? I was wondering if if creates the massive image based files like s note does or not. I guess it is too much to ask for an editor that keeps the pdf file but also allows customisation of pen and later erasing of any annotation. Both of those things lacking in EzPDF cause me to use S Note but a 12mb pdf file becomes 70mb+ in S Note and a bit slow.

My impression is that Papyrus keeps the original format. At least loading large PDF files is very quick, and there is a directory that contains
the file in original format, and you can zoom to 10x and still not see pixels.
Too bad that it is not working directly on the PDF, though, so you have to convert back to PDF or auto sync to PDF on dropbox.
Otherwise, working on PDFs is really great.

Thanks heaps for the reply, that is very encouraging. I hate that S Note converts the PDF to images and then they became quite poor quality, not being able to zoom in without pixelation.

It definitely doesn't have the spen support that other readers do, but Mantano is literally the only reader that doesn't have lag and jank. EzPDF doesn't have nearly as much lag as other editors do, but the categorization doesn't match Mantano. Mantano does EPUBs very well also. I've literally tried them all and cannot find a replacement for Mantano.
