Have been using this app ever since i discovered this. It is so fast and fairly accurate (i gotta be honest my handwriting isn't really comprehensible hahaha!) Because i love it so much i have this on my smartphone and my tablet. All in all, this is so much better than the handwriting keyboard on the Chrome OS. More

My favourite app for pen-to-text. However, It no longer works online (accessing the online recognition) - only offline, which seriously reduces accuracy, Emails to tech help get a bland robot response directing you to the website which tells you nothing. A great app ruined! More

Pen to Print may have some flaws but i still like it. Basically, i use this app to scan my school notes and edit those notes within the app. There are times that i had to scan a few times some of my notes in a different angle though. Take note that you also must have a clear handwriting. Aside from that this has been the app that i need in my life. More

It's an awesome way to convert handwritten notes to digital text. I used it to scan some stories I wrote. It's very easy, affordable and fast. I'm quite pleased.

Squid is a handy productivity app that anyone can run on their Android mobile device. It has allowed me to write out notes on my phone instead of trying to type them using the small virtual keyboard. Having the ability to take quick notes in a meeting has greatly improved my workflow. More

Simple and easy to use. Have been using this ever since i started college. Definitely recommending this to anyone who wants to go paperless because with this you no longer have to take down notes on your notebook. More

This app is really powerful and easy to use! You can write notes as if on a piece of paper, edit, then export as an image or PDF!

I don't see a function to convert handwriting to text. This article is misleading

Looks like this is simply a great app that fulfills it's abilities! I hope this app is Apple compatible as well since a majority of people use iPhones.

Pretty easy to write with but far from perfect. Often gets words wrong and it hasn't gotten better over time.

Okay this is not really an app which can convert your handwriting into text. But if you love hand written notes but detest carrying about notebooks and pens with all your tech goodies - this app is for you. It's a great writing addition to any tablet. It looks great, works smoothly, and just what it says it does. It could use a few more features, but you can get good use out of the free option, so I have no complaints there.

This app as really evolved since it first launched. It's now my "go to" handwriting app. Does an amazing job cleaning up my handwriting.

Selvy Note is the best app to make notes on hands down. I hate the stock ones that come on Android and haven't really been able to find a good one. That is, until now. This one is really awesome and has a ton of great features. It really comes in handy. More

This is a really cool app! I like that i have the opportunity to edit my own handwritten memos. Not just that it allows me to write memoms using my own handwriting. Isn't that amazing?

Monospace is a great app that has a cool minimalistic feel to it. It lets me take notes without all the clutter that most apps weigh their product down with. I really appreciate the aesthetics of Monospace. I actually look forward to taking notes with it, and I’m able to find my notes easier because of the minimalistic aspect of the app. However, it doesn't have handwriting to text capabilities, so it that is something you need, this may not be the app for you. More

I installed Monospace and I thought it worked pretty well. The handwriting detection is good and it's easy to format text.

This is a good app, but not for handwriting. This is more of a quick note taking app, or a small word processor. It does not convert handwriting to text and therefore should not be used for that purpose. More

So much potential - But... This still isn't up to par with competition. No palm rejection if using with stylus (on Note series products). Also can't make the writing area smaller or larger depending on your preference. Recognition is okay with finger and not great with stylus. I do enjoy the "Shorthand" options! wish I could use the App more, just too frustrating for now! More

Sucks that this app is no longer available to download on Playstore nor Appstore I have heard so many things about this eh. Should have dl-ed the app when it was still available More
