Input:
Question: What happens if you have your pen and livescribe paper, but forget your paired device? Will the writing sync once you get to your paired device later?
Document: * Easy to use. Whether you send your notes to the app as you write, or synchronize later, it all just happens automatically. My previous Livescribe pens required a cable to connect and transfer notes. Now it all just happens with no real effort on my part. * Easy playback with audio. Each time you record audio with your notes, you get a "pencast" that can be played back on your iOS device, where you can watch the notes being written, and listen to the corresponding audio.
LiveScribe seems to reinvent their ideas rather than simply upgrading. The current offering is hard to place. It's kind of like writing on your tablet with a stylus (in fact, one end is a stylus) and kind of not. You write on their special dot paper with the pen while the writing simultaneously shows up on the table. Unlike prior pens, this is not asynchronous. You don't store the writing in the pen, then sync it later. It transmits via bluetooth smart as it goes.
text with a Livescribe 3 pen, do this. Write in your notebook after you have paired the pen to your iPad or iPhone (and by the way if the bluetooth connection drops, it doesn't matter. When you reestablish it all your info will transfer. You can even write far away from your iphone or ipad, and pair it hours later when you get home).
(*) Will transfer writing to your device immediately (if connected) or store it for later. (*) Still works as a pen even if you aren't using their specialty paper. A small thing, I know, but I figured worth mentioning. :)(*) The leather portfolio that comes with the Pro edition is actually quite nice.
After all, I needed to be able to give an accurate review to our internal users who were asking about it. Lol.Wow is all that I can say. It paired easily with my iPad Air. I started writing in the notebook and a couple seconds later it appeared on screen. The pen itself is kind of big, but I have small hands and I was surprised how quickly I got used to it.The real voodoo comes when you switch over to Feed view in the Livescribe+ app.
I know that it will hold 20,000 pages but what happens if you want to sync with another device and you have to wait for hundreds of pages to sync. It will take forever. I also miss the calculator and the games. I do like the appointment and address function. It was something I was hoping for in the echo.
I think more slowly when I write with pen and paper.....and having a pen/paper handy allows me to write as thoughts happen (and before senior moments erase all those good thoughts!). Writing like this works for me - especially when I can convert what I write to digitized text (which I still have to correct because of my horrendous handwriting) for cutting and pasting later.Livescribe is definitely worth the price!
Fortunately, even when the app is not picking up your writing it still remains safely stored in the pen.The text feed to the app on your iOS device is a pretty impressive feature. However, the feed is far from smooth and it has a very noticeable lag. This might be as fast as the current technology allows.I had paired my pen up with iPhone 4S and iPad Mini. It works about equally well with both.
Doesn't always sync and pen body feels light and cheap. I could never get the pen to perform reliably enough to trust for note taking. Notes would either not show up in the Livescribe app or be illegible. A more reliable digital note taking experience was using GoodNotes and an Adonit Jot Classic; plus I am not having to buy or print proprietary sheets of paper.
Thats an hour of my time that I'll never get back. "Thanks" Livescribe.UPDATE 1/30:  The app crashes and stability have gotten much better, so I am upping my review a star. I do still have times where the pen isn't activating a recording from the paper, but it has gotten much more stable. Bring functional, stable iCloud sync across devices, and a way to get to my pen casts from my Mac, and you've got 5 stars from me
Answer: But the Livescribe 3 can not record audio any more, which is now dependent on your iPhone or iPad. That's why it is really a downgrade from the Echo. You used to be able to record the meeting while writing on a notebook like normal. Now you have to pull out you phone or pad, turn the app on and put it on the table to make sure the audio is good. It was really a profoundly stupid idea to strip the recording function from the pen.
