I founds this to be a pretty good app for handwriting to text conversion. It really gives me the feel of a classic paper notebook. Fun to use.

This is a really great app for converting handwriting to text. I like how it allows you to format it, create flow sheets, and basically, it just helps me to keep all my handwriting nice, and clean, and legible. It's not very expensive either, and it's really easy to use. It's a little harder, in my own opinion, to write with your finger if you don't have your stylus nearby, but that can't be helped. I think it works pretty well for all the things I use it for (mostly writing notes and making lists).

I started using Penultimate in College to take notes during my classes because I did not want to have to type all the time and I enjoy writing in general. It made it a lot easier to keep track of all my notes and organize them for when I needed to pull them up to study. Overall I enjoy using this app to have my written notes to text and it has made my note taking much better.

Penultimate is the best handwriting app I've found for iOS devices because it presents a clean layout but still contains all the of the tools you could want for creating hand written notes or sketches. I found it quite easy to use and I love sending things I wrote by hand instead of text messages. More

Hi @Maciej Zawiasa Notability supports 14 languages from English. Dutch, French, Italian, German and i dont know the others but that's what i know so far because i use this to convert my convert my handwritten notes to a text on this app. More

I prefer to take notes by hand in class but when I study it's way easier to look at the computer. Notability helps me upload all my notes and then I can look at them when I want. It doesn't have every feature I want but it's pretty reliable as handwriting to text app.

Uhhmm.. i dont think i would be able to convert handwriting to text notes through the Microsoft OneNote. Why is this even here eh?

I usually get my best ideas when I am away from my electronic devices, so I just scribble them down on a scrap of paper and hope to come back to them later. My life has totally changed since I started using Microsoft OneNote! It will take my scribbles and convert them into organized, usable text that I can then use to complete my projects.

Notes plus does exactly what it should do and then some. I love how it quickly incorporates my notes and makes my handwriting readable. Definitely one of the best handwriting to text apps i have used. Worth the money!

I'm pretty sure there's a decent free version out there, but this one seems pretty good. You can do much more than just convert handwriting to text, you can doodle / sketch and make notes. More
