Hi! I want to buy the remarkable for my wife. She takes a lot of notes (handwritten) and then need to put these into an online secured platform (she’s a psychologist). She’s already an Apple user (laptop and phone) and thinks it would be an easier process to go with the Ipad.

I’ve only heard great things about Remarkable, but she does have a point: she’s already (locked) with Apple products. It’s a plug and play environment. The marketing stuff from Remarkable seems to focus on the lack of distractions (ok… ). That’s not convincing her. I think the “paper feel” and handwritten-to-text are the best-known selling points, but it’s hard to understand if you can’t try one in a store.

What am I missing? Should she really go with Apple (again)?

Thanks!

    If you would be on Microsoft, I would say get Remarkable or Boox. As Apple user you might be too overwhelmed and as Apple is closed ecosystem and you never know what they turn off next the iPad is imho better idea. Just get that paperfeel screen protector on it. On upside, Apple has fantastic ecosystem where you can use iPad with your macbook.
