While in business meetings and lectures, the Audio Bookmark feature now allows users to sync handwritten notes with audio recordings, allowing you to record while jotting down questions and comments simultaneously. While reviewing the audio, your notes will appear as bookmarks to help you remember the most important parts.

Other updates to Samsung Notes include exporting handwritten notes into PowerPoint slides in addition to PDFs and Word documents, a range of new template options such as checklists and graph paper, and the ability to import PDFs into Samsung Notes and make handwritten notes and annotations on them – perfect for signing contracts or making notes on a report.
