Simply the best. The Nebo app is awesome. Surface Duo + Active pen works remarkable with the app, it's fast, precise and full of cool features like math and diagrams. Yes, there is a place for improvements and new features (e. g. tables, code snippets, better dual screen support, etc. ), but it's already mature product which push handwriting to the next level. Eagerly waiting for the next updates :)

The best handwriting recognition, bar none. Unfortunately, the rest of the app is incredibly unreliable. The cloud sync will stop working every week or so and there's no option to manually sync somehow. I've also lost a week worth of work because an automatic app update erased everything. Hilariously, the "suggestions" submission in app is broken, which is why I'm submitting a public review instead

The app says that to sync between devices, you must use the same account and add your OneDrive or Google Drive account, but that you need to have the paid version. Well, I paid twice, once on the iPad and once on an Android device, to sync between all devices. And simply nothing. It didn't sync. So I paid twice, once on the App Store and once on Google Play... to not have the service.

Carolina, you’ll need to purchase the app on both the App Store and Google Play Store. Then, activate your cloud service by logging in to Dropbox or Google Drive to enable sync. Here is the user guide: https://bit.ly/3SR2G3M For further help, visit https://help.myscript.com/ and click "Submit a Ticket" at the bottom. Best regards, Sebastian
