Typing

Type when it’s faster.
Write when it isn’t.

Typed text sits on the same page as your handwriting. Outline with the keyboard, then circle, arrow and scribble over it with the pen.

FAQ

About typing.

Can I write on top of typed text?

Yes. Typed blocks and handwriting share the page, so you can circle a sentence, draw an arrow to it or highlight it.

Do I need to know LaTeX?

No. Simple things like x^2 or a/b work as you would expect, and a / command inserts fractions, roots and symbols.

Can I export a document for class?

Yes. Export typed notes and documents as PDF, Word (DOCX) or Markdown.

Can I edit typed notes on the web?

Yes. On the web you can edit typed notes fully. Handwritten pages open read-only there.
