About this app

Moleskine Notes works with the Moleskine Smart Pen and Smart Notebooks to empower your handwritten notes and sketches by bringing them into the digital realm. Take notes by hand, transcribe them inside Moleskine Notes, and then share them with friends and collaborators. Go offline with your Moleskine Smartpen, and all of your work will be transferred upon reconnecting with the app. This means you write and draw anywhere and still create a shareable digital copy of your pages.

The notes you take in meetings or classes can be instantly converted to text, then exported as Microsoft Word, RTF, or TXT files. Draw diagrams and import them into your PowerPoint presentations. You can export your sketches to vector art and continue to refine work.

We all love screens and devices. However, when it comes to capturing your thoughts, nothing beats paper’s immediacy and open-ended possibility. The Moleskine Smart Writing set offers you the best of paper and digital to amplify your productivity and creativity.

Ratings and reviews

I just got a Moleskine Smart system for Christmas, so I haven't used the 1.0 app to compare to the new release. I'm experiencing the same critical failures as reported by others. The app crashes often and a pop-up says "this app has a bug, clear the cache?" Then I lose everything I wrote during the session. I would love to be able to snap a photo of the page and upload it to my digital notebook to replace the missing text. I think once the app works, it will work well! It is not useable now.

Sticking with the 1.0 version until they can work through all of the issues with streamlining the new 2.0 version to work better than the 1.0 version. Attempted to download my notebook data from google docs into the 2.0 version, it managed to awkwardly input my planner info in the wrong areas (text on incorrect pages, dates, and layout.) It also ignored the pen stroke thickness that the text was set to. I am interested in seeing how the app progresses.

When I first used the Pen+ Ellipse, I was able to save my writing, transcribe it to text, and save it to my Google Docs account... but only for the first two pages. The last two pages only has one page showing me what I wrote and the second page is blank. I also cannot transcribe my writing to text. I need this writing to text feature for my novel as it's a huge time saver and these problems are extremely frustrating. I also sent an email regarding these issues. Please fix this app!!!
