It runs in the meantime only on Notebooks of the own brand - I have one but it is not good for people without a Samsung Notebook. I don't undesrtand why Samsung does not allow people to buy a license at least.

      Really disappointing that this doesn't have pressure sensitivity. I use a hand me down 1st Gen Apple pencil and it works beautifully with my 2019 iPad air. I get that this is only $80 but without pressure sensitivity you might as well get a used 1st Gen pencil or get another stylus.

        Is it just me or is apples entire line up just becoming more and more diluted and somewhat convoluted? with almost pointless release of certain products.
        They need to streamline most of their entire line up.

              Sideloading is a possibility but works wonky and not worth the hassle.

                    Anonymous, 17 Oct 2023It doesn't work natively on my windows pc since few mo... moreTrue because Samsung changed their policy for their Windows apps.

                    In many regions they now require a Samsung branded laptop for being able to use those apps, and a sideload doesn't solve it.

                    Same with android, getting that app to run on anything but a samsung is a uneeded mess (possible, but very annoying)

                    So unless you live in a Samsung eco system (the irony of them acting like apple) you have a harder time.

                            It was even removed from my phone, but yes it does support it, kinda stupid it doesn't work in other note apps I use.

Air commands and actions. It's also water resistant, meaning you can use the phone and pen under water.

                                  Unlike the Apple pen, you will never have to charge your S Pen, as it recharges automatically inside your phone and the core pen functionality does not require any battery charge.
