About this app

HandWrite Pro turns your tablet or phone into a precise vector notebook. Take handwritten notes, annotate PDFs, and sketch with stylus or finger – no tracking, no account required.

Built in Hamburg, Germany, by an independent developer. Trusted by over 1 million users.

WHY HANDWRITE PRO IS DIFFERENT

Most note-taking apps store your strokes as pixels. HandWrite Pro uses a true vector engine, so you can zoom infinitely without blur, edit individual points, and export to SVG for Inkscape or Adobe Illustrator. That makes it the only Android note app that fits both lecture halls and design workflows.

KEY FEATURES

- PDF markup – import, annotate, and export PDFs
- Vector engine – lossless zoom, infinite canvas, point-level editing
- Stylus support – pressure-sensitive drawing with Samsung S-Pen and other active pens
- Speed Pen – simulated line variation for finger or passive stylus
- Layers – work like in professional design software
- Export – PDF, JPG, PNG, and SVG
- Organization – folders, tags, and custom labels
- Paper styles – endless canvas, lined, dotted, grid, and custom sizes

FAIR PRICING – YOU CHOOSE

Most features are free forever. To unlock the premium add-on, pick what works for you:

- Low-cost trial subscription – try all premium features for a small monthly fee, cancel anytime
- Lifetime license (recommended) – one payment, yours forever, no recurring fees

No hidden costs. No forced subscriptions. Decide after you've tried it.

Good, but could be better. First, I have multiple devices on this account. When I pay for some of the upgrades, it should be available for each of these devices. Instead, the upgrade works on only one device. Second, With regards to circles - I teach math and use my device as a teaching tool - it would be helpful to have a center point for the circle and scribe the circle as if it were a compass. Your drag and expand process is awful. Fix line thickness issue. It defaults to an overlarge size.

Better than what I thought! Very smooth when writing, pages and colors easy to apply. I'm going to have to see how things are going to look when you pay for the additional features. But it's close in some respect to Samsung note app but you get more and don't have to pay with Samsung. It better be really good since you all that money for the phone. Tried others but only this app is in the same ranking to S note.

Best app you have never heard! The only note taking app that lets you easilyy scroll through different pages of a note. I have tried Evernote and OneNote at all the others in this is best by far. I take notes all days throughout the day at work and most other apps make it hard to pick up where you left off. This one makes it super easy. And you can easilyt go back to previous notes to recaps meetings and conversations.
