Samsung Notes favorite pens and local storage options

0 Likes

Howdy,

I primarily use samsung notes for school work. It does its job well, but there are a few changes I'd like to see.

1) Favorite pens/more color options on tool bar

Some of my engineering problems that I work on would benefit from having more than 3 color options for easier color coding on diagrams and equations. There is already 3 selectable colors on the tool bar. Enabling more than 3 colors would be greatly appreciated. Another option that I could see would be allowing the favorite pen pop-out to be "snapped" like the toolbar. It currently obstructs whatever I'm working on unless I zoom out. Revision of one or both of these would be immensely helpful for me and probably many others.

TLDR solution:

-allow more than 3 colors in tool bar

-allow a snapping feature for favorite pens

 

2) Local storage

I get it. Cloud storage is popular. I personally am not the biggest fan of it. I'd like to have an easy way to export my notes to a local storage media without painstakingly exporting each file to PDF. I tried doing this by syncing my notes to my Windows 11 PC to save locally to my desktop (albeit using a cloud service). It completely scrambled my note folders and now I'm having to go through about 200 note files to recategorize them all. This made me extremely, extremely, EXTREMELY frustrated. All I wanted to do was have my notes on a backup PHYSICAL STORAGE DEVICE. I feel that this isn't too hard to ask. I wouldn't mind saving the files to the tablet and then transferring them to my desktop through the file directory. This is the whole reason why I choose Samsung over apple: they're supposed to talk to each other better than the apple/windows ecosystem.

TLDR Solution:

-Add an option to export Samsung Notes files locally to physical storage media on the tablet in appropriate subcategorized folders

 

I hope ya'll look into these suggestions I have proposed. I don't know if I was the reason that ya'll added the air note bubble that's compatible with non s-pens, but I'm extremely grateful that ya'll added this feature in since I use it on a daily basis.
