I use pen and paper notes for meetings & discussions. While I love the act of physically writing, not having notes accessible and searchable at the tips of my fingers means I am not able to get the most out of them.

This discussion is timely as I have been researching smart pens the last few days which can give you exact copies of your paper notes into an app. Anyone here used them? Do you like them?



I've never used standalone smartpens but I semi-regularly take handwritten notes in an iPad app using Apple's smart pencil. Some apps attempt to turn cursive into text but TBH my handwriting isn't good enough for the transcription to work reliably.
