I’m looking for an open-source alternative to Samsung Notes, which I use every day to take notes with my pen.

One of the main problems with this application is that you can’t open a storage directly, every time I make a change to a document I have to export it manually to Nextcloud. You can’t sync without Samsung Cloud.

Edit: This is an example of the usage I do of Samsung Notes and what I’m looking for:

    Ive had a galaxy tab for a bit over a year now and use Notewise.

    Its not foss but fuck me its the most comprehensive note app ive found for use with pen.

    I use it to mark up construction plans, edit PDFs, sign documents, design things with its protractors and rulers, take notes, read manuals, its really above the rest in every way.

    I do use Joplin for general text note taking in a notebook style but Notewise for anything and everything else.

    edit - it also saves documents in i believe vector format so you can fully zoom in to your writing / highlighting and its never blurry. I found that samsung notes was absolutely horrible after you exported anything to pdf or image.
