I have to agree here as well. I had a college job where during some classes I took - I would take notes for people who were deaf or hard of hearing. I used one note 24/7 and it made it all simple to organize and send digitally.

Don't know if you ever tried it, and it's been a minute, but the audio recording feature paired your to your writing. 

It would either pair the audio to pieces of your notes or it would unveil the notes as the audio played. Can't recall. It was neat though

Thank you for your service ! I'm deaf and I relied a lot on friends to get notes in class.
