Excellent Program
I run it on my Mac Studio and it works perfectly. I only to make the occassional change to the transcription. My handwritten text is accurately and quickly transcribed.TWGUC
Excellent example of Anoto governance poor quality
Update And I willl continue to update this review until this company fixes this garbage product.
1. If your phone goes to sleep, the app disconnects fro. The pen and you have to associate the pen to the app. You have to do this every time
2. The pen has difficulty recognizing livescribe Anoto notebooks
Still a pissant peoduct that I use because I paid for it.
Since Anoto bought this company, the product has declined. It’s just the same one recycled with a new body. No improvements over the one pen and no improvements with the app and decreased selections when it comes to paper selections Why do I have to sour my pen multiple times? If the goal is to bankrupt this the original company then this is an excellent plan. Someone bought this company to eliminate it as a competitor because before Anoto, the products were excellent!Show lessQuasilyon

The app is atrociously bad.
The procedure to pair and sync the pen takes so long you might as well just type it all out yourself from the notes. I tried to use this to speed up the transcription of interview notes to typeface and I ended up swearing a lot because it wasted so much of my time. I updated firmware and the app. Followed all instructions and it honestly takes me about 1 hour to get it to finally connect. They it randomly stops recording what you have written. What a waste of money and time. I have two of the symphony pens and I’d call them something else which cannot be written here.Show lessMarty Mc 1982
Can’t connect my pen…
I started with the Symphony then moved to the Echo 2 to get in-pen audio recording. The pens are poor quality in that both models had cracks appear in the pen caps, and you can’t buy new ones.
The app is a pain in the rear to connect to. I can only connect with my iPhone. It won’t connect to the app via my iPad or my iMac and I’m running the latest versions on everything. I sent an email to Livescribe for assistance and a week later I still haven’t had so much as a “well look into it” from them, complete radio silence.
Tried looking up on line but all the videos I’ve found skip the trouble shooting element.
If I hadn’t invested £120 on the thing I’d bin it completely. Don’t waste your money.Show lessShogun43
Echo 2 Will Not Sync
I have my Echo II paired with my iPad Pro (current edition), but my recordings and notebooks will not sync. I went to the website help page, but the “helper” app downloads but will not install onto my iPad.Larry Hamilton III
Great, when it worked
Although the pen is easy to use and provides a pleasant writing experience, the syncing process with the app is problematic. The connection to the app often fails, and when it does connect, it takes an excessive amount of time to connect. Additionally, the pen now records every movement on the page when I'm not writing, scribbling out my notes, rendering the captured notes useless.
The notebooks available are very limited. Unfortunately, I have received some very nice notebooks as gifts, but they are incompatible with this pen.
These issues detract from the overall quality of the system.
I persist in using the app and pen, though ultimately, I wished I hadn't bought it.Show lessDaJoPr
Unstable…
Open the app and it crashes within the first minute. I can’t work fast enough before the crash. Makes my pen useless.CReynoso
Still the best around
I’m a longtime Livescribe user through various pens, latterly the Echo II.
It does what it says on the tin - recording and transcribing notes
I’d be lost without itkenilworthhammer
Worst Device and App Ever
Do not buy the pen or use the app. It never works and customer service is horrible.Nseitzff
