How I Use My reMarkable 2 for Fun | Notebooks and Quick Sheets 

To the best of my knowledge, you've created the ONLY tutorial on how to simply create basic notes within the Remarkable 2 folder environment. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Excellent job :)

Thank you for actually taking the time to actually show step by step instructions. Everyone else blows right by that. I now understand how to use it!

I'm a bestselling novelist. I've always handwritten my initial drafts. My current book-in-progress is being written on the rM2. Because of its digital wizardry, the rM2 is indeed a pleasure to use. I highly recommend it. (Randall Arthur)

I have had my remarkable for a month now, and I'm using it daily! I love that it's so easy to bring all your notes with you all the time, and being able to add to them from anywhere as well :) Also, it feels great to write on it!

I spent THREE days after the basic set-up process trying to figure out how to use it (I am a Mac/Adobe person). I used the reMarkable chat but got absolutely nowhere. The instructions on the reMarkable website were utterly useless. Then I found this video (after finding a load of useless "look at me raving about my purchase" videos) and voilà - how to actually start using it. Thank you so much!

Thank you for your video on how to just get started. It was the only one that actually helped me

all the other reviews are like "omg im taking sooo many notes in a day so i really need this device. I wake up in the morning and the first thing i do is taking notes and even in my sleep im taking a shitload of notes". Your review is actually helpful. One gets an idea on how it works and what you can use it for. well done. many thanks! would be cool if you could show how to make that chinese signs template!

That’s so cool thanks. I’ve ordered mine instead of buying a new notebook for my Thai class and I am so glad you showed your Japanese idea, I will so do this! Thanks for the organization tips too!

Thank you for making a video that shows the basic and simple ways to get me started on my ReMarkable 2 experience 🤩

Thank you so much for this video!!! You are the first person that gave me the info I needed on the remarkable 2. And trust me I looked, over 100 video’s watched now.

Nice short vid. Congrats! I love your drawings and the way you use the different shades.

I Love Japanese and am learning it, and have had my new reMarkable for only ONE DAY and love using it!

Waiting for mine in January and SO LOOKING forward to this... Thanks for the video

excellent quick and easy video ,thank you for keeping it simple

Your doodles are like major works of art!

the greyscale thing is clever as, thanks!

Thanks for all your videos - I ended up pulling the trigger on this!

This was such a helpful video! I'm considering getting a ReMarkable and this was a great help for me 😁

Thanks for the vids on the R2! I'm ordering mine Mon, hopefully I'll still get it in Jan.

I love your handwriting, very beautiful.

best explanation so far

Concise, well done.

Super useful! So worth watching for anyone wanting to better use their Remarkable2! Thank you 🙏

Yesss, the main reason I wanted to get this was for studying language. I tend to retain things better if I write them down. I also have a notebook full of my old practice sheets for hiragana and katakana from years ago, this would have made things so much easier. I ordered mine earlier today and you've just made me even more excited to get it.

WOW after 3 years + this is the only video that shows you how to create files but more importantly how to organize them. Not even reMarkable was able to do this effectively. Question: Once you pick a template looks like you are not able to change it to a different template or mix them up for example page 1 with dots and page 2 with lines etc?

Remarkable probably isn't paying you, but they should! I've gone back and forth on this for months, but after seeing a couple of your tricks I finally ordered. So excited!

Your Japanese characters are beautiful!! すばらしい！

You’re such a brilliant person. Thanks for helping.

Awesome tips, thank you very much!

I had an iPad Pro but for some reason I still want one of these.

Very creative! Before I saw your video, I was drawing a little graphic on each notebook to indicate which have reviewed and updated for the day. That way, I can cycle through my 12 projects and see from the main page, which have to be updated. Your snowflake gave me a idea to create a quicksheet with clip art so I can copy/paste a "Reviewed" stamp without having to draw one every time. Thanks!

Amazing!! 😂🎉❤. I just stumbled over this!!!

Oh this is great I can see how this would be useful for anyone/ kid to practice lettering formation too

Very nice! Thank you for this video, I've been searching for one on how the notebook management works, and this is extremely helpful!. I think I'll go ahead and order a remarkable 2 soon!.

sumple great and understandable videos. Succesfully convinced me to buy this for my first job as a landscape architect :)

Well Done! Enjoyable to watch :)

Some feedback: First, you have an extremely pleasant delivery style. Your voice is natural and conversational and your diction and inflection is excellent. Also, (and I know this sounds a little silly,) but you have nice hands. When you are creating a demonstration RU-vid channel, where your hands are front and center, clean, well-maintained hands matter. Even men who highlight things like knives or tools or other outdoor gear need to pay attention to this detail. My only suggestion would be to have you post more often. Before purchasing my own reMarkable 2 I viewed a ton of videos. Yours were by far the best. Thanks for your hard work!

Remarkable is on its way to me in Vietnam. Thanks for these videos , they look very helpful !

awesome, exactly what I was looking 4 ! thanks !

Thanks for the tip on creating folders to organize. I had not done that, and I have 1 big pile of notebooks as a result.

That was extremely helpful

Inventive and helpful, thank you!

Hey Thanks for the review. Planning to buy it .. short and elaborated way to show how to use it ..

really liked this review and how unique it was. I llke the "fun" aspect.

Great video. I'm considering to get one of these. I actually want the Onyx Boox Note Air because it has built in lighting, but have read that you need to use a screen protector on it to write well because it has a glass screen. I'm not a fan of screen protectors stuck to my devices. Also the Remarkable 2 is slightly less expensive. I've always wanted to learn how to draw zentangle patterns, but didn't want to waste paper. Also I think this might be a fun device to write a zine of some sort on, or to write a journal. I also run a business directory which will have it's own publication and I think this device might be great for reading the pdf. I loved that thing you did where you circled and then copied the snowflake and pasted it onto the document. I think I would go crazy with that in my documents because I love to draw fish and flowers... they would be everywhere in my work I'm sure.

It looks great I must definitely get it

Hi @Montsy, this video is so addictive so much variety! My rM2 has become my second brain and has re-sparked the wonder years - would be cool to do a collab with you re: learning and the rM2. Cheers!😊

(3') practicing Japanese (or any characters, really)... grayed out model is a cool idea! You can also use a different layer when practicing (in black, over the grey model), that way you can clear, rinse & repeat :)

thanks for showing files and folders....

Thanks for sharing! Your get away drawing is super cool :) Nice eyes on the rice bowl. I am still trying to figure out the best way to organise my folders. I am thinking a "Work" and "Personnal" is a good start. Do you move file from your "Daily" folder at the end of the day? For example you take notes during a meeting and then at the end of the day you would move it to your "Work" folder for example? Haha I should hurry my quicksheet just passed 100 sheets T_T PS:thanks for your previous writing tips. I write in capital letters and keep the letters with same space and hight (consistency).

Remarkable looks very great, I am looking a tablet for just taking notes..however I like to be very clean in writing..very high resolution like a fineliner.. but I also like to use different colors.

Best review video quite remarkable since it wasn't a review

good video, thx

Great review!, Do you know if this can be linked with some services as google drive to storage?

Love the video. Practical on how to use the device and start off organized. Please add more as you find née things to share! Curious - how did you become interested in Morse Code?

The grayscale idea is great! I like how you actually show how you use it. Is there a capability of importing a PDF, and use that as a template everytime you take notes?

nice instructive video, so thx. Some basic questions: is there a plain/blank page template without lines etc for simply drawing? and, if u wish to make a hardcopy of your page for instance, do you just save as pdf, then connect to a printer then it prints? also uploading to the web -- is this a feature ?

Cool video :). I'm sorry to tell you that you got the hiragana stroke order wrong, it's very important to follow the correct order. And speaking about Japanese, I know this device has a function that converts the handwriting, does it work with Japanese aswell?

I have been BUJO since March 2017. I looked at the RM a couple of years ago. I convinced myself that I needed color. After watching your videos and seeing how you highlight and create ways to make heads I'm sold. I noticed that you opted out of getting the new marker with built in eraser was there any particular reason why? Also, do you plan on doing anymore videos on the RM2?

Brilliant! How to create that writing practice in gray scale,please?

Effective, concise video...thank you for posting. I'm new here, so please forgive me if the answer to this question is elsewhere in your videos... I see you writing over previously drawn characters, without modifying them. Is there a 'locked' setting that allows you to do this, or is it simply overwriting a file's contents without saving the additions? This feature appeals as electronic tracing exercises for my granddaughter to practice her motor skills in an efficient (albeit costly) way. What price a life skill, well learned, though, eh? :-) Plus, I like the graphical tie-in to the morse code alphabet. Anything that helps with association.

Hi Cool video! what are your thoughts on the Marker plus compared to the none eraser marker? is it worth it?

So disappointed that you have so few videos!! Your quality is awesome. Still, sub'ed, in the hope that you'll come out of your shell and produce more content at some point.

Hi @Monsty Did you felt the need to buy their Connect plan ? does the storage from the device suffice ? for example, those folders that you have,(you said you are creating daily "lists") how much space do they take. Thanks a lot and sorry for my English

The Morse code template is really good. Do you have a PDF you could share?

Have you had any issues sending emails/sharing documents from your reMarkable? I have five files I’ve the past 30 hours and none of them went through 🥺🥴🧐

Thank you for your video! I’m trying to figure out how to get the device to open to a certain page every single time (it’s a quick sheet). In other words, I want my to do list to be the first thing that I see when I turn it on. Any ideas?

excellent ! any source for the method you show to learn Morse ?

Where does reMarkable 2 stores the notes that you create? Is it in the cloud or in it's internal memory? How do you transfer notes between reMarkable 2 and a PC? Does reMarkable 2 have autosync to sync up notes in real time?

Hi I'm just buying a remarkable 2 can u show how u trace the letters for practice and how u did it

I know this seems so random. How many squares across and down on the s dot? I've only ever used the Leuchtturm 1917 for BUJO. I'm curious the dot comparison. Also, I would love to be working on some brainstorming spreads before it arrives.

Lol I did Japanese and Morse code practices on my reMarkable 1 too

Here's your typical and common 'you're gorgeous' comment. I'm so jealous of your writing.

This is really helpful! Are you still using your remarkable daily?

素敵な日本語の手書き!

When I look at the sheets they look grey like the cover of my new Remarkable. Can I change the sheets to look bright white?

How do I open just a easy quick sheet in the remarkable? Each time I open it up again it brings up all of the sheets before and I don’t want that because I want to put them in files.

I love the Japanese and want it on my rM! How can I get it? By the way, awesome video!!

When you write can you rest your hand on the device or will that mess up the writing?

I’m thinking to buy this for my mother. She is going to read a lot of PDF files, The normal tablet makes her eyes tired, 1)Do you find that your eyes reacts to this tablet as if it’s a paper? 2)How much memory does this have, I mean if a PDF file is very big can it handle it? 3)Is it possible to zoom in while reading a PDF file?

Do you have a referral link to purchase a Remarkable2?

Would you recommend this for taking notes for my lectures? I don't draw nor sketch.

How has the device kept up? Software & hardware wise.

Can you hide the menu on the left? so that you have a blank page?

Oh my oh my sorry I got distracted girl! 😅

How is your remarkable 2 holding up and do you recommend someone buying one?

There seem to be some helpful people here, Monsty included, so just reaching out to ask that I got mine not long ago, it's writing fine on quicksheets but not at all on notebook pages. Just trying to unravel what I'm dong wrong??

Hey! Do you have a referral link?!

Ηi! How did you add the snowflake?

Can we connect pendrive and HDD or SSD with this ?

Can you use remarkable with spreadsheet formats?

Great review. From my research so far before I intend to buy. Shaded of gray? No idea yet. Pros Not backlit. Great for me. Super thin, light and portable Easy on the eyes!!!! This is by far the biggest selling point of e books people. Forr those of you that have no idea and ask... why not use the iPAD? Pls don't compare. More fun than paper but paper is cheaper Comes with the pencil on paper sound Battery life is good as two weeks. Pen does not need to be charged. Apple and Microsoft take note. I hate bluetooth because I work in IT and I know how unhealthy it is so avoid it as much as possible. Password lock mode Easy to upload files to it. Can switch to landscape mode. I think this both auto and manual? Cons No dictionary or grammar checker. Would have been great You are right. You cant purchase anything separately. I checked as well prior to me ordering and looking at this video. Very silly! It put me off purchasing. Extra bits for the stylus are expensive and add up No mini SD for extra storage. No idea why no Ebook readers come with this as an option. Only 8G storage. Should be 32GB min. You actually only et 6.4GB even though they state 8GB. Not enough. People complaining about some issues like jagged lines and not getting responses. Premium cost, premium support but not apparently not the case. Hopefully will get better Only 226 DPI. Latest Kindle 300 DPI Pen on the side when stored. I agree. Design flaw. I agree with comment here you can purchase a case on Amazon for half the price and get a place for pen. All magnetized as well. No MP3 or read my ebook option like the first gen Kindles. Very expensive for what you get in my opinion. Should be about $200 less. I heard you cant do a search on text that you write. I believe this is when you convert. Silly. Formats for files is not that great either. Only two formats supported. PDF being the important one for me and .epub. What about .mobi. docs, etc. Not supported. Silly Screen size is good. Ebook suffers from ghosting so needs to flash at times to clear screen. The good news is you can do this manually yourself if you want and i believe also set the level in terms of how many layers. Expensive for what you could use paper for Replacement tips. I wish they never had to be replaced. Not waterproof. This does not interest me and as I don't intend to go diving with this :-) but some people might want this Not colour. Colour ebooks are available. Onyx for example do one but display too small for me. Will I buy it? Love to but not for the price. Might wait for sale. App is very basic. Cant do editing or even check a box. No Internet access. Just for updates. Does not sync with OneNote. I use OneNote for everything Can I password protect specific pages? Not to my knowledge. What about backup if the system crashes? Nothing in the cloud right. On ho. All my life notes lost. Can you organise your notes like OneNote? No idea. Waiting for 3rd version. If they give me more of what I need, I will buy. Definitely. Give me a colour version with improved DPI I'd be sold. A tad limited to me in what you can do for price

This is only in black and white correct, no color at all?

Can you put folders inside the folders?

I like the morse code part. can you send it to me?

The problem is, I am using an iPad Pro 2021 to watch this video. I have all this function on my iPad and more. I also have a manual sketch pad and notebook. It feels really hard to see the value.

Can you search for notes on the tablet?

How did she get get away? I don't see that get away page on my notebook

If you ever do a remarkable giveaway (even old device), please count me as first entry :)
