Is there any note-taking software/app for video

by•

I usually learn things and get inspired by watching videos from YouTube, Tiktok or online courses (I admit that video is good for learning, but not good for extracting information and reviewing). And I found it's very complicated to take notes for videos. For now I have to install a screenshot software to take screenshots, transfer transcript with an online tool (and it doesn't work most of the time), and open a note-taking app to put them all in, then write down my own thoughts. I want to know if you guys have the same pain as I do, and is there any tool that can combine video, audio, transcripts, and text together for better taking notes?

I guess you just need an app to write down the signal words while watching vids? Or, better yet, if there's an all-in-one app where you insert the vid and it generates a transcript, and you can take notes elsewhere within the app? Been there. The answer is there's none, unfortunately. I'd been trying many note-taking apps out there but none of 'em actually got the job done. The workaround I came up with is: Create a template where I can insert the link of a vid, play it and turn on the sub generator, then write notes underneath. Please do share if you find any better solution. Cross my fingers 🤞, hoping you would find one.

Yes, there are many note-taking software and apps to help us. The free, lightweight PDF editor is perfect for writing offline, staying organized when you're on the go and sharing with others. OneNote is the go-to note-taking app for Windows. Creating text, images, sketches and more differentiates it from other online note-taking services.
