Notes helps you to quickly capture thoughts, questions, reminders, to-do lists, and meeting notes. You can create handwritten and typed notes, record voice notes, convert handwritten notes to text for easy readability, and send notes to others.

Enter information in Notes

There are several ways to enter information in a note. You can enter typed text by using the on-screen keyboard or handwriting recognition software. You can use the stylus to write or draw directly on the screen.
