Review summary

Boogie Board Sync app was once a useful note-taking tool, praised for its simplicity and productivity by long-term users. However, multiple reviews highlight its abandonment leading to broken features like Boogie Board Live and syncing with Dropbox, and incompatibility with newer Android versions. Confusing UI elements and unclear device support further detract from user experience. Despite its potential and useful OCR capabilities, the app's lack of updates and technical support significantly limit its current usefulness.
Pros
  • Simple and basic design that some users find effective for note-taking.
  • The app was productive and fulfilled its purpose for users who own the Boogie Board Sync device.
  • Has useful features like syncing, backing up, and character recognition (OCR) when it was supported.
  • Long-term users have found value in the app over the years.
Cons
  • The app is abandoned and no longer updated, causing compatibility issues with newer Android versions (Android 11+).
  • Key features like the Boogie Board Live and Dropbox syncing have stopped working, reducing functionality.
  • User interface issues, such as a broken undo button and confusing instructions referencing a non-existent power button, frustrate users.
  • Battery overuse alerts and general app instability lead some users to uninstall it.
  • Lack of support for non-Bluetooth devices and unclear device compatibility causes confusion.

A fair app, not amazing but it did it's job. That is, until they abandoned it. Now it no longer works with the current versions of Android.

Very simple in design, but it's kinda hard to use for that reason.

Need to update it for Android 11+ because google stuffed up permissions on the data directory so can no longer export/ print pdfs from the app. Dumb move by Google.

Wish they didn't abandon this technology. They were so close to a great product. The Boogie Board sync actually worked with character recognition in Onenote. And could sync and back up to several services automatically. They stopped supporting this 2years ago and instead got lazy and tried to use NeoLab technology for their new Carbon Copy pen, but it's a Downgrade. Why are all these technologies getting less useful over time?
