We’re making big changes to Connect. Read our latest post to find out more.

By subscribing, our new customers can access all our greatest features. Tools to help you focus, create, and take your notes and ideas further: the full reMarkable experience. Current users will be given full access to this new service and be an integral part of shaping its future.

This represents a big change for reMarkable and marks the start of a new chapter in our mission to create products and software that can truly deliver better thinking through technology.

“We set out to recreate the paper writing experience using technology, and while this continues to be important, the next step is to focus on expanding the possibilities on our device. With new features and integrations that live up to the reMarkable promise - helping people to think better” says reMarkable CEO and founder Magnus Wanberg.

We’re very proud of the incredible reception and success of reMarkable 2. Thanks to our next-generation paper tablet, thousands of people worldwide are using reMarkable to think better, free themselves from distractions, and get all the benefits of paper without the clutter.

An expanding universe of powerful tools

Connect allows us to place the focus squarely on the software experience moving forward. We’ll enhance our current features and consistently add valuable new ones for our subscribers. Whether that’s by refining our cloud storage services and apps or giving you the ability to turn your reMarkable into the perfect digital whiteboard with our collaboration feature: Screen Share.

We also hope that Connect will help us build stronger and more meaningful relationships with our users. Whether you’ve supported us from the start, or are discovering us for the first time.

“Since launching the original reMarkable, we’ve been lucky to develop a strong community who have helped us get to where we are today. We’re so thankful to you all, for the support, but also the feedback that we use to improve what we do. We’ve really listened to this feedback and that’s informed this next chapter - a renewed focus on the software experience.” says Wanberg.

Current reMarkable 1 and 2 owners who purchased prior to October 12th, 2021, will be offered full free access to Connect from day one. Meanwhile, anyone buying a new paper tablet with Connect from our webshop, will be offered a 100-day satisfaction guarantee period that includes a free trial of Connect with access to the full suite of available features.

A new relationship. Same amazing experience.

Purchasing a reMarkable 2 with Connect is risk free with our new satisfaction guarantee. After receiving their device and experiencing its incredible paper-like feel, they can decide if reMarkable is right for them, and return it for a full refund if not.

The 100-day free Connect trial also gives all our customers the chance to unlock their paper tablet’s full potential, with no pressure to decide if they want to subscribe until after it ends.

While it includes some of our most-loved reMarkable features, like handwriting conversion, you’ll get access to exciting new ones too. We’ll focus on making collaboration, organization, and creation cornerstones of the full reMarkable experience.

A major highlight is the introduction of popular services like Google Drive, Dropbox, and OneDrive to our software ecosystem. Integrations give you the ability to add accounts from cloud storage services directly to your reMarkable, opening up lots of new possibilities for sharing and storing your notes.

Going forward, Integrations is the platform we’ll use to start adding even more of the tools we know that our customers love. So that eventually, your reMarkable paper tablet becomes not just a brilliant device for deep thinking, but a seamlessly integrated part of your workflow.

If you feel a subscription is not right for you, then you can still opt-out and take notes, read web articles and ebooks, annotate PDFs, and organize all your notes on a device designed without distractions.

This is just the beginning

Our ambition for Connect is to bring us closer to anyone who owns a reMarkable. It’ll help us to tune into what’s most important to users, expand our horizons, and develop new features faster. We can’t wait for you to experience it, try it for yourselves, and help us shape where it’ll go next.
