If you don’t have the loot for expensive high end phones with the fancy styluses (whose brands shall remain nameless in this post), then you should consider the Google Handwriting app.  I think it works great!  Don’t get phone envy or be salty with you friend because their phone might bling a little more than yours.  I think I started using the app a couple of years ago on one of my other assorted-low cost Android phones.

Someone recently saw me using my finger on my phone’s touch screen and asked what game I was playing.  I told them I was actually using a handwriting app.  It requires no stylus or fancy apparatuses and you can just start writing on the screen and the handwritten letters are converted to text.  I think it is one of the better Google apps out there… and I hope they NEVER retire it!  (did you see that Google search engine?)  NEVER.  Retire. It.   #NeverRetireIt

Anyway, I think it works great; especially when I don’t want to finger type, or letter slide, or whatever they call it when you have to press the actual alphabet during a long texting session.

You get a pretty decent size space to write and the screen moves when you fill it with script.  It also integrates well with other text apps you might be using, like emojis or text keyboards.  I think you can still use a stylus if you want… but, I don’t want.  So, I haven’t put a lot of effort into trying it out.

It should be in the Google Play Store  listed as Google Handwriting App.  Try it.  You might like it.   I hope you enjoy…
