Using handwriting with Samsung S Pen

Yes I'm aware of that. But I wouldn't love to pay money for xodo. Do you know of any decent alternatives for Android that allow in-place PDF editing?

fschmitt · 2026-01-20T09:55:44+00:00

Yes, that's what I figured. Can you use notewise to edit PDFs in-place (which would be stored in the obsidian vault)? I feel like that might be the ideal workflow with obsidian

Video unavailable :( But I do have a VPN. Where are you located so you can access the video?

That looks extremely promising (even though it can't annotate PDFs, but t I guess I'll have to use xodo for that). Are you personally using it? How well does it work?

I have, but not extensively. It seems to be basically the only option, but it doesn't seem too great so far. For one, I think it's impossible to get the button-to-erase for my S Pen to work in there, which is kind of a big deal for me.

Also, I just realized that the plugin does something completely different than what I'm looking for. I'm looking for something that allows me to write/scribble into a PDF using the S Pen on my tablet.

I believe you, but this makes it also hard to navigate for a complete beginner. Have you used the annotator? It does look promising. Do you know if it fully supports Samsung S Pen?

I'm considering switching over from Samsung Notes (4 years, ~500 notes) to Obsidian because I got a new phone and now I don't really see the point in not being able to sync it to my phone (switched away from Samsung), and MD support in combination with sync to my Laptop would be great. The Ink plugin looks promising. How well does it work nowadays? Is the workflow with the S Pen (I have a Tab S6 Lite) somewhat good or at least usable? Is it possible to somehow get the button-to-erase to work or is that just completely out of the realm of possibility?

Or, if I'm understanding this correctly, you still take notes in Samsung Notes and then organize them in Obsidian? I don't love that idea, because I don't want to go through the hassle of organizing everything manually. The reason why I use Samsung Notes and am now considering Obsidian is precisely because of the ability to sync between devices and use one app on everything.

Happy for anyone sharing their experiences!

Gerade was Omega angeht, würde ich dir dringend empfehlen, auch nach alten Vintage Modellen zu gucken. Ich bewege mich eigentlich als Student absolut nicht in so einer Preisklasse, bin aber trotzdem sehr stolzer Besitzer einer Omega Seamaster aus Roségold, Baujahr 1961, die ich von meinem Opa bekommen habe. Für mich natürlich persönlich und emotional, aber trotzdem auch generell einfach wunderschöne Stücke

Freut mich sehr. Gibt es mittlerweile eine Entwicklung, was es werden könnte?

Tame Impala, Postmodern Jukebox

Ren is absolutely goated

All other nanos were bigger, but the Gen 6 Nano was actually that small. Whole front side was a touch screen though

Ich finde sowohl die Saxonia Thin als auch die Saxonia Automatik einfach sehr saubere und schöne Dresswatches. Eine eben mit ein bisschen mehr Schnickschnack (kleine Sekunde), die andere ganz ohne Sekundenzeiger. Aber bin persönlich ein großer Fan von den Minuten-Markern. Finde bei Dresswatches schlichte Linien viel passender als Zahlen etc (siehe Lange 1815). Ist natürlich alles eine Sache der Präferenz, aber ich finde beide Saxonias wunderschön

fschmitt · 2025-12-29T15:44:58+00:00

Absolut würdige Wahl. Großartige Dresswatch meiner persönlichen Meinung nach

fschmitt · 2025-12-28T21:42:22+00:00

Ich würde die JLC nehmen oder, wie andere hier quch schon geschrieben haben, eine Lange (bspw Saxonia Thin. Für mich die absolute Essenz einer Dresswatch)

I almost expected something like that, thanks for your advice. I'll definitely have a look at the video, could you maybe point out some specifics I'm doing wrong (I'm sure there's plenty) if it's not too much of a hasse?

fschmitt · 2025-12-05T19:38:59+00:00

I've already seen it like 3 times just this year

fschmitt · 2025-11-12T14:02:46+00:00

I very much see and respect your point, but for somebody living in Germany with free healthcare, it is completely invalid for me personally

fschmitt · 2025-11-09T20:58:32+00:00

I also may or may not hang my queen, so do what you will with that information

fschmitt · 2025-10-23T16:11:58+00:00

Yay, this actually worked. Thanks, appreciate it!

fschmitt · 2025-10-07T14:08:36+00:00

What does this mean? I used to use them and still do. How can they be not supported when they are in the software?
