User Reviews

Users praise the Carbon Copy Pen integration, note saving, and folder organization, and note cross-device use on iPhone/iPad. Major drawbacks are lack of cloud syncing/backups, degraded Smart Pen support after updates, and reliability issues like freezing or long save times that force restarts. Some want better export/sharing and clearer out-of-box guidance. Overall it’s a solid MVP when the pen works, but cloud syncing and stability need improvement.

Pros

Smooth Carbon Copy Pen pairing and syncing; works great.
Saves notes as a sustainable alternative to paper.
Folder-based organization and tagging are handy for managing notes.
Works on iPhone and iPad and supports saving multiple pages in one document.
Relatively solid baseline app for a minimum viable product.

Cons

No cloud sync or cloud backup across devices, hindering cross-device access.
Smart Pen functionality has been degraded by updates (Smart Pen Settings removed and pairing can fail).
App frequently freezes or locks up when saving or processing scans.
Saves can be slow or fail, sometimes requiring a restart.

I cannot recommend these boogie boards. So far I have a larger size one and no matter what I do the lock feature does not save what I write on the board even if I try the different steps like removing battery, etc. nothing has worked. I thought it was just a glitch and the company I bought it from sent me a second one and it’s doing the same thing. I wish there was a feature that had it like a magnet on the back so I could hang it. I can sit there and write notes on it, but it erases the minute I press the erase screen is supposed to save it. It’s not working on either board as far as the reason I bought it. The reason I bought it was to save notes to the boogie board app, and I can’t even figure out how to do that because nothing’s working. The fact that it’s not simple out of the box clear instructions no instructions came with this thing is ridiculous for the amount of money I paid for it. I will be sending both of them back. I do not recommend this. Go on Temu and buy just a plain simple one.

I have enjoyed working with this app for many years. With version 3.4.0, the app no longer supports the smart pen as it shows in the Photos for this app. I wrote to the company letting them know about this issue several weeks back. It remains a problem as I write this review

This is no longer a helpful app. All it allows is taking photos of notes, which other apps can do and do better. Unless it brings back the carbon copy Bluetooth pen settings, this is more a wasted investment and useless product as it’s a worse version of other apps.
