HandWrite Pro

Handwritten notes, PDFs and sketches with stylus or finger – razor-sharp at any zoom. No forced subscription, no account, no tracking.

Over 1 million downloads. Built in Hamburg, Germany, by an independent developer.

NEW IN VERSION 10

- All-new design with dark mode

- Shapes, connectors and 39 stamps for diagrams

- Lasso selection, alignment guides, snap to grid

- Presentation mode and search across all notes

WRITING & PDF

Write with pressure sensitivity using the S Pen or any other active stylus – or with your finger: the Speed Pen shapes each line from your writing speed. Import PDFs and annotate lecture scripts, forms and contracts right inside the document. Pick your paper: endless canvas, lined, dotted, grid or a custom size.

SKETCHES & DIAGRAMS

Draw shapes and link them with connectors that stay attached when you move things around. 39 stamps, alignment guides and a snap grid turn a quick sketch into a clean diagram, flowchart or mind map – just like on a whiteboard. Every stroke stays editable, down to a single point.

VECTOR ENGINE

Most note apps store your strokes as pixels. HandWrite Pro stores them as vectors: zoom as far as you like and every line stays sharp. Work in layers like in design software and export your drawings as SVG for Inkscape, Illustrator or Figma.

HANDWRITING TO TEXT

Turn handwriting into text with on-device AI that works offline. Your notes never leave your tablet. 10 recognitions are free, unlimited with Premium.

ORGANIZATION

Folders, tags and filters keep your notebook tidy. Search finds any note by name, tag, folder and text.
