A lot of people like Evernote, but I need to write notes by voice. (My texting skills are lacking.) OneNote integrates easily with "OK Google", and I haven't been able to get anything else to do so. I just say "OK Google," then "note to self," then wait a second, then speak. But I don't like OneNote, because I can't seem to log in to the relevant Microsoft account to download my notes to my computer.
Any advice? My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S5.
entering in voice is a keyboard-entry feature. Swiftkey has a shortcut to type-via-voice that is on the keyboard part when it pops up. I find it occasionally gets bumped but you would find it useful.
I think Evernote should integrate with Google Now perfectly well. If Wunderlist does that, Evernote must do that as well. Here's an article that implies that this is possible: http://lifehacker.com/5992572/save-a-quick-note-to-evernote-gmail-and-other-apps-with-androids-voice-actions (and here's another one: http://www.getproductivefast.com/2013/03/google-now-voice-notes-to-evernote.html).
As for the text skills, try to use gesture typing or Fleksy. I prefer gesture typing on the stock Android keyboard on Nexus 5. If I remember correctly, Swype (the original gesture typing keyboard) is included with Samsung version of Android.
Downloading the swype app gives you more features than the stock version.
