Easy to use. Review: Relevant, revolutionary and state of the art. - # Livescribe 3 What seems like many years ago I acquired the first Livescribe smartpen, the Pulse. I was blown away. It not only seemed like ultimate tool for a trial lawyer, it was. Thus I reviewed the Pulse quite favorably in July 2008. When the Pulse was made Mac compatible, I modified my review and declared ""Relax and Join the Revolution." Two years later I found myself even more impressed when the second pen, the Echo, was released. My review was styled "Perfecting the Nearly Perfect". Along comes the Livescribe 3. It's hard to imagine that Livescribe could improve on the improved "nearly perfect", but they have. This is a revolutionary smartpen. A lot has changed in the world since 2008, but a Livescribe pen still records audio while you write. This feature enables you to simply touch a word in your notes to bring up what was being said when the note was written. This is, was, and remains the greatest reason to own a Livescribe pen. You do not need to listen to an entire recording to determine exactly what your note means. When I meet with clients for the first time, nine times out of ten I use my smartpen. The revolution in 2013 however is in the interface. The Livescribe 3 is designed for the post-PC world. The smartpen is paired with my iPad Air. My notes are instantly loaded into a Livescribe app and from there can be further exported into a vast array of other apps. This makes case organization much easier. The pen itself is lighter and more attractive. The Pulse looked like a blue cigar tube. The lighter Echo was designed with a great deal of flair, and the metal barrel was gone. It still had a cap for the ball point, and I have always been afraid I would lose it. The new pen has a retractable ball point totally eliminating the possibility of losing part of the pen. The overall design is worthy of a $100 plus pen. As always, special paper is required, but it is priced fairly and you can print your own paper. The pen uploads automatically to my iPad, but strangely not to the old Livescribe desktop. So the Livescribe 3 remains relevant , revolutionary, and still manages to be state of the art. Review: The pros outweigh the cons - I bought the Livescribe pen having previously used the Echo and Sky Wifi pens. This is by far the most superior of the livescribe ranges because it uses the bluetooth to transfer the notes and the audio. I use the pen in lectures and for the most part it is a very effective piece of kit. Not having the microphone in the pen reduces the sound of the pen scratching. Although my recording device is usually beside me in the lecture hall I can still hear a faint scribbling on playback. The software supporting the pen could do with much improvement. The app is slightly temperamental and can crash. If this happens generally any audio being record at the time will be lost. You can sync multiple books which is good because this allows easy organization of notes The software playback of audio is very good and unlike the Sky Wifi there is no buffer time and you can skip easier between pages and notebooks. Having a wifi connection may seem attractive but relying on the cloud to do everything instead of having it more local on your device can be frustrating when trying to review work. I think that there should be a Livescribe 3 version of the Livescribe Desktop that is used by the Echo pen. I was advised by a Livescribe CS Agent that when the app is deleted or reinstalled the audio is lost which is a big downside. There should be someway of actually backing up the audio. I only use ios devices therefore no android support has little impact on me. Overall this is an investment that is well worth it because it will enhance note taking and means once you sync you really don’t need the book to see your notes because everything is stored digitally which is a big plus. ## Features - Livescribe smartpens only work with Livescribe dot paper. - Connects to your iOS and Android devices via Bluetooth Smart (Low Energy) to sync everything you write or draw to the free Livescribe+ app - Uses your smartphone or tablet's microphone to record audio that's synchronized to everything you write on paper - Once your notes are in the Livescribe+ mobile app, you can organize, tag, play back audio and send/share notes to any of the devices you use - Search your handwritten notes and convert what you write into digital text with amazing accuracy. - Built-in memory on the smartpen captures and stores your notes, allowing you to sync to up to 4 iOS and Android devices ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00FG38L16 | | Additional Features | Bluetooth Connectivity, Handwriting to Digital Conversion, Audio Recording, Handwritten Note Search, Multi-Device Sync | | Best Sellers Rank | #804 in Digital Pens | | Brand | Livescribe | | Built-In Media | Computer Digital Pens | | Color | Black/chrome | | Compatible Devices | 2nd-generation-kindle-fire, 2nd-generation-kindle-fire-hd, 2nd-generation-kindle-fire-hd-8.9, 3rd-generation-kindle-fire-hd, 3rd-generation-kindle-fire-hdx, 3rd-generation-kindle-fire-hdx-8.9, 4th-generation-fire-hd-6, 4th-generation-fire-hd-7, 4th-generation-fire-hdx-8.9, 5th-generation-kindle, 6th-generation-kindle-paperwhite, 7th-generation-kindle, 7th-generation-kindle-voyage, apple-ipad-2, ap… | | Connectivity Technology | Bluetooth | | Customer Reviews | 3.6 3.6 out of 5 stars (585) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00816108010410 | | Item Weight | 1.2 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Livescribe | | Model Name | APX-00016 | | Model Number | APX-00016 | | Operating System | iOS 7 or newer | | Specific Uses For Product | personal | | Target Audience | Teacher | | UPC | 163121474218 132018287767 096578274813 012300305587 803982734877 858783701887 809392596616 816108010410 172304268339 898029662152 | | Warranty Description | 1-year warranty on all parts and labor. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Livescribe - **Connectivity Technology:** Bluetooth - **Model Name:** APX-00016 - **Operating System:** iOS 7 or newer ## Images ![Livescribe 3 Smartpen for Android & iOS Tablets and Smartphones - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81u3JPGwdtL.jpg) ![Livescribe 3 Smartpen for Android & iOS Tablets and Smartphones - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51p4QU1NLpL.jpg) ![Livescribe 3 Smartpen for Android & iOS Tablets and Smartphones - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Z0kj0b75L.jpg) ![Livescribe 3 Smartpen for Android & iOS Tablets and Smartphones - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51+0towXRQL.jpg) ![Livescribe 3 Smartpen for Android & iOS Tablets and Smartphones - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81lWFLZxI4L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Relevant, revolutionary and state of the art. *by W***L on November 10, 2013* # Livescribe 3 What seems like many years ago I acquired the first Livescribe smartpen, the Pulse.

I have been a long term user. I had the Pulse, Echo, and the horrible pen called the Sky. The Sky broke my spirit for this company. The product was an excellent idea, but since it's inception there have been minimal improvements to make the ecosystem work between Evernote and the Pen. I could have worked with the right improvements. QUICKLY, but it didn't. I was so frustrated at the lack of OCR, and Pencasts that I had been used to for years I nearly threw the sky out of the window. Low and behold the reason the sky wasn't improved upon is because they had this up their sleeves. I have only used the pen for one day and I will update this review as things progress, but my initial reactions from using this L3 is they finally got one step closer to making the perfect product. This pen feels more solid, writes smoother, works leaps and bounds better than the Sky, and best of all, OCR and Pencasts are BACK! Is this pen as easy as they say on the site? Yes it is. You just download the application on your iPhone or iPad, turn Bluetooth on, turn the pen on with the application running and if instantly pairs to your device. Pick up the paper and start writing and the notes start showing up right on your device with a 3 second delay. I was really blown away with how easy it was. No account setup, no Evernote connection, no computer, just your iPhone and this pen and the LiveScribe paper pad. Once the light turns blue on your pen you are ready to write. As long as the light is blue the on is connected to your device and you can continue to write notes while the phone is in sleep mode provided it does not auto lock. You can multitask on your phone and the app continuously tracks your pen in the background. Fire off the LiveScribe app and all of your text is right there! It's pretty neat. This pen has no internal storage, so if you don't have your iDevice it will not work. Since I am NEVER without my iPad or iPhone at work, this is no problem for me. Can this ecosystem be improved? Yes! There is no way currently that you can link your old LiveScribe account to this new device, there's no way to directly sync to Evernote anymore, there's no way to sync your data offline or off of your idevice yet, there is no way to stop the app from using your data to upload the files to their servers for OCR recognition. Based on Livescribes history of improvements with the Sky, I wouldn't hold your breath on getting those options any time soon, but you can export notes as PDFs to share with others, you can add photos and pictures to notes now. You can transcribe notes to text, do PenCasts, upload to Evernote as a PDF with embedded audio, a lot of stuff that old school LiveScribe owners grew to love is all back. I think this pen is a massive improvement over the prior Sky Pen. If LiveScribe stays the course and makes quick improvements to address customers needs they will have a winning product here. The jury is really still out as I get more seat time with this device. I will update this review as I discover more down the road. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/1143940-livescribe-3-smartpen-for-android-and-ios-tablets-and-smartphones](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/1143940-livescribe-3-smartpen-for-android-and-ios-tablets-and-smartphones) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-05-31*
