Great Very good note taking app. Erasing with the figure is very cool and being able to plant your hand on the screen without it making marks is very nice. Much better than the stock note taking app.

Awesome S-pen needs to learn all these tricks, or papyrus has to get voice appending, pic addition and s-planner integration.

Usefull implementation of the S-Pen Best note taking app yet. Hope the developer can incorporate sync function with desktop/cloud for edition (2 way sync).

One of the best implementations of the s-pen Very smooth writing, much more responsive than S-Memo. Easy erasing with fingers. Good export functions as well, which comes in handy. I was overall surprised by this app. A must-have for note taking. a tip for future development: using the s-pen button to activate functions (erasering, moving,...)?

Really promising! This looks great! You could really win the s-pen competition! :-) But where is the paid/donate version?

Great app s pen but First the greatest positive...you can adjust the pen tip size. Needs more s pen support especially for the button, that and a small addition of writing surfaces...even I would pay.

Fantastic! I've been looking for a good notebook app for the longest time now and Papyrus is definitely the best that I have found so far for what I want to do. I only wish that there were a pure typed text functionality in addition to the handwriting. Oh and maybe a way to insert images as well.
