Maybe Google will buy out AudioNote one day… Reason 2. And then some students get sucked into trying to draw a Google drawing and it just doesn’t work easily. So many of my students like to type on their phone and take notes, but the problem is you can’t circle words or add highlighted lines easily. I only wish that Google documents could let you draw diagrams in addition to typing notes. So, you could take a picture of a diagram from the textbook and then switch to pen mode to annotate certain parts of the diagram and then switch to textmode and start typing some notes. You can both type and add drawings into your notes.Īll you have to do is switch to pen mode and you can start to annotate pictures or circle words.Įven better, you can switch to highlight mode and you can highlight certain lines that the teacher said was important.įinally there is a photo mode which allows you to take a picture and insert it into your notes. $20.99 for AudioNote, or $12.49 per year for the pro subscription of AudioNote 2ĪudioNote is a fantastic notetaking program.

That habit'll kill you eventually, one way or the other.AudioNote is a fun app. Nothing against this software, which I won't try out since the need this app addressed is already satisfied by OmniOutliner Pro, but besides getting all the power and functionality of a deeper, richer program, you also get to develop a habit of pursuing quality, rather than just living cheap or just getting by.
