Digitizer Pen and Paper - Take

Android-app voor het maken van aantekeningen met ondersteuning voor Active Pen (inclusief S-Pen) [Early Access]

An Android notetaking app with Active Pen support (S-Pen compatible). This app started as a capstone project for my Computer Science master's program at CSUF.

The project aims to solve three users interface design flaws of handwriting apps on the Android platform that lead to inefficient notetaking. The project report declares these three design flaws:

(1) There are too many steps required to perform the task of switching writing tool and tool color.

(2) Limited page panning results in a cumbersome writing experience at the edges of the screen.

(3) Users forget to switch to the desired writing tool and tool color after using a previous tool.

The solutions to their respective problems are:

(1) Reduce the numbers of steps required to switch writing tool or tool color.

(2) Allow users unrestricted page panning to eliminate cumbersome writing at the screen edges.

(3) Render an optional cursor on screen that indicates to the user at all times the selected writing tool or tool color.

The design of the app focuses on implementing these solutions. Until further notice, this app will be available as an Early Access app on the Google Play Store.
