Hi folks, one of the things I used the most in my last 2 note devices was taking notes with the screen off and then those notes (memos) were saved in SNote which because was syncing with Evernote would send those notes to my inbox in Evernote. This was a very good process for me.
I just bought a note 8 and noticed that the notes are being saved to Samsung notes instead of SNote, and apparently Samsung notes doesn't allow to sync with Evernote anymore.
Has anyone found a workaround for this?
Thanks in advance
Have you gone into apps settings and set the Samsung as not default and set the snote as default?

Tried that, no luck, the app is not predefined for anything, yet all screen off memos go to Samsung notes instead of SNote.
I believe that Samsung is trying to replace SNote by the new Samsung Notes, but the last one is nowhere near the capabilities of SNote.

Just to update this thread, I still can't save the screen off memos to S NOte instead Samsung Notes but at least I was able to get back action memos (I still can't understand why they were removed) by installing S Note version 5.2.04.25.
It's unbelievable that Samsung screwed up their S Note app by replacing it with Samsung Notes, having inferior features and no Evernote sync option.
If I am not wrong, things have been this way since the Note 7, so for more than a year. They really need to get their act together.
Sorry for not posting anything useful, but this really bothers me. How are notes useful if you can't sync them to your other devices?
I am going mad. is there at least a way to sync that bloody samsung note thing with the PC? without samsung coud stuff?

yes , you could sync your notes with evernote and access it via PC
thats not an option. Thought about a samsung x64 dealing with it. What is the filename samsung note stores in?

You can, with S-Note. Unfortunately, no such option with Samsung Notes (the new app).

Looking for something specific. I love PA roms but i need an s planner replacement. Before anyone rants about search, i have done so and tried ooodles of calender apps but i need something like s planner that can attach a an s pen created memo or camera image to a calender entry. I drive buses and need to add notes/images in case of any incidents. They need to be stored and synced for years. S planner is the best thing for this but id love to be able to ditch tw roms. It needs to be quick, unfussy and support s pen/image notes.

Hi everyone, I just upgrade my S4 to S5 and I transfer everything by TB, so far seems everything ok, but there is one problem, there are lot of notes under my S4 S-Memo apps, I think only "Memo" Apps on S5, I am able to export all my notes from S4 to google drive, but I only able to use Samsung account only on S5's Memo, and I don't know what folder is S5's memo located, I really needs those notes cause I using lot of them everyday, can anyone please let me how I can able to get those notes works on my S5? thank so much....
If you search in the Samsung app store, they have an app called "Smart Switch Mobile". Install this on your old phone and on the new and it will automagically transfer and convert the notes into the new s5 format. Worked wonders for me!

Anyone know how to get Samsung Notes to sync automatically or on a schedule? I have a Verizon Note 8 and Tab S3 and want them in sync. I have to remember to go into the menus and do it manually now.
Thanks,
David
Settings, Cloud and Account Settings, Samsung Cloud, there activate synchronization of Samsung Notes...
There is no Samsung Cloud on Verizon devices. Hence the question.

Really? Does Verizon have their own cloud service? If you go into the settings for Samsung Notes or Gallery, do you see the option to sync to Samsung Cloud?
Just an FYI as its sooooo much better than Samsung Notes....
Cheers guys...
Is it this app? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samsung.android.snote&hl=en_US

I dl'd it and disabled samsung notes. Much more robust program.
The only issue is that I had to re-activate samsung notes to take advantage of "screen of memo". It wont work without samsung notes active
What advantages does S-Note have over Samsung Notes?

Good old days, for start you could customize note covers, categories showed like folders (filing trays), you could customize background grid to other versions, like cross layout for maths and etc....
I don't understand why they removed these options.
Which was the one that you could copy and paste live links was it action memo?

Interesting. Thanks!
It's a ashame that they eliminated "photo notes" in the app. I thought it was a pretty handy feature. I tried to sideload it a couple days ago, but it wouldn't allow me.
Is the S note app available for the Note9 in the Galaxy App store or Google App Store? Without .apk etc.

Thank a lot. S note is much better than samsung note.
...and: it syncs to evernote.
Be warned it hogs a sensor usage for some unknown reason.View attachment 4727251

Not to mention that you could sync s note with evernote...there don't appear to be ANY sync capabilities with any 3rd party apps in samsung notes.
Hi is there a way to have Google photos open when clicking the image thumbnail in the camera? I disablled the Samsung gallary but then the thumbnail won't open.
Or is there a way to import my Google photos to the Samsung gallary? I just hate having multiple apps that do the same thing.
Thanks
I've been trying to sort that too, no luck tho

Google Photos actually doesn't work well with the HDR Videos recorded with S10, so I would not recommend to do that even if it was possible.
HDR videos look washed out for me on Google Photos.

That's what I did, I made sure all my photos are synced to my Google drive,
Then I used an app called "auto-sync for Google drive" by metactrl
Downloaded all my photos and videos to my S10, then I saved them to Samsung cloud.

Yeah I am. Reboot seemed to fix it. After you have them all on Samsung cloud did you delete the auto sync Google drive app? Or do you have that app upload to Google drive also?
I deleted the app, but left my photos in Google drive just as back up and if I may use a different make of device in the future.
