Livescribe Symphony Smartpen

Yes, the pen requires Livescribe dot-patterned paper to function. The pen's infrared camera tracks its position on the page using these tiny, printed dots, so standard notebooks will not work.

Absolutely. The Symphony records audio via the Livescribe+ app on your connected device while you write. The audio is synchronized to your strokes, so you can tap any word in your digital notes to hear exactly what was being said at that moment.

You don't need to be connected to your device while you write. The pen has enough onboard storage to hold up to 1,200 A4 pages of notes, which will automatically sync to the Livescribe+ app the next time you connect via Bluetooth.

Yes, the Livescribe+ app includes handwriting recognition software that converts your handwritten notes into digital text. It supports over 27 languages, making your notes searchable and easy to export as Word or text documents.

The Symphony is compatible with iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS devices. You can access and manage your notes across your smartphone, tablet, or computer using the Livescribe+ app.

The pen charges via a standard USB connection. While active usage time varies based on how much audio you record, the pen offers an impressive 90 days of standby battery life.
