Galaxy Note 3: taking notes with the S-Pen - the best tips

The S-Pen of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 can make your life easier. With our tips, you will be able to make your notes faster and easier in the future than before.

Galaxy Note 3: Use campaign memo correctly

The "Action Memo" app is a slightly reduced version of the powerful "S-Note" tool. Learn how to open the little helper at lightning speed here.

• Pull the S-Pen out of the housing and hold the pen over the activated display of your Galaxy Note 3. A small cursor appears.
• Now press the button on your S-Pen. The "control center" of your S-Pen opens: "Air Command". Click on the left of the many different buttons and the action memo opens.
• Here you can make a lot of small notes by hand and call them up later in the app menu or manage them further.
• The highlight: Press the "minimize" button of the app, the action memo turns into a tiny tile that you can easily position on the screen. Practical if you visit a website in parallel or are in contact with friends, for example.

Easily share screenshots and display sections with the S-Pen

Excerpts of the content shown on the display can be quickly split with the S-Pen.

• With the S-Pen button pressed, draw a frame around the desired image section. The shape is completely irrelevant: whether rectangle, circle or completely free-hand: your Android smartphone selects exactly what you imagine.
• Now the Galaxy Note 3 generates an image from the selection you made, which you can edit even more precisely with the tools displayed at the top of the display.
• If you have made the desired selection, select one of the apps displayed at the bottom of the display for further use of the screenshot. No matter whether you want to send the image as an attachment via email, or want to share it directly via Whatsapp or Facebook - there are no limits here.

If you want to use your Galaxy Note 3 even more efficiently, you should take a closer look at the current smartwatches. The best models from Samsung's "Galaxy Gear" smartwatch series are presented here.
