Since we announced our partnership with Moleskine, we’ve been eagerly awaiting the day Evernote Smart Notebooks would begin to ship. Today, Evernote Smart Notebooks are beginning to make their way to those who placed their pre-orders (most of you should receive them within the next week). If you’d like to get one for yourself, buy an Evernote Smart Notebook now.

Using the Evernote Smart Notebook

You can use any mobile version of Evernote with these notebooks. Those that combine the Evernote Smart Notebook with Evernote for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch will get our new Page Camera feature that make the notebooks even more useful.

The Page Camera is designed to work with the notebook’s dotted page pattern to optimize images and save handwritten notes and sketches to Evernote with the best quality, so you can easily find them on any device where you have Evernote installed. Included with each Evernote Smart Notebook are sets of Smart Stickers that digitally tag your handwritten notes; when you use the Evernote iOS app to snap photos of your pages, the new Page Camera will recognize these special stickers, automatically tag your notes, and save them into pre-selected notebooks in your account. For more details on how this works, see our Getting Started Guide.

Even if you’re not an iOS user, you can still take advantage of this unique integration. When you snap a photo of your handwritten notes using Evernote on any of your computers or devices, your text and images will be indexed and made searchable in Evernote, everywhere.

We’re very excited about this partnership because it brings together two things we love: beautiful paper products and advanced technology. For those of us who enjoying jotting down our thoughts on paper but also want to have those memories available forever digitally, the Evernote Smart Notebook is the best of both worlds.

How will you use your Evernote Smart Notebook?

Received mine yesterday. Fantastic design, the green is a nice touch and the cover is fun to just feel. The stickers are a great idea (SPOILER ALERT [don't think I'm using that term correctly] – the stickers work with regular Moleskine’s as well – and perfectly to boot). I understand that people who do not need to get the stuff rattling around in their head down on paper, and are not addicted to the feel and dynamic of a Moleskine like I am would think this is just a waste, but in my opinion it does two things; it helps promote the Moleskine brand, which I am constantly worried about in the digital age, and its enjoyable. Now, that might not be a big thing in the overall consideration of things, but to enjoy yourself in the simplest acts is too often put aside for efficiency or commonality. I mean, if I just wanted to write things down I’d use a piece of notebook paper.

Thanks again y’all! Its a good idea, great delivery, and an enjoyable experience. Have a great fall everyone!!!

Disappointed that there is not Android version right out the gate. Was looking forward to this product.

I ordered these notebooks, and got them yesterday, when I had an iPhone. I still have my iPad, but actually replaced my iPhone a few days ago with an Android phone. …so one more Android backer!!

Can Evernote at least provide an estimate on when Android will be supported? It doesn’t seem fair that Evernote forgets Android, Windows Phone, and Blackberry users.

can not wait for the android version!

It’s been two months since iOS got page camera and still no love for Android (or Windows – x86 or phone). Maybe its time to start looking for alternatives before Evernote becomes iVernote.

I love this! Been using Moleskines for years, but since I keep most of my notes in Evernote and use less and less paper this would be a great excuse to work in a Moleskine again! And people asking about what the extra is since it seems nothing new to some? This is just a start. Who knows what the Evernote team has in store for us with this Moleskine notebook in the future? I surely can’t wait.

And for the people asking ‘Why not go Android?’
One of the reasons that developers choose to make an app for iOS is ’cause it’s the main platform on which people are willing to pay for apps. Also, even though Android may have a bigger market share, the app store on iOS generates around 5 million a day! Which makes it a good business opportunity. The apps are also sometimes more expensive than on Android so the developers earn more either way. Besides that iOS only works on i-devices, Android phone models and versions differ so much it will bring alot more problems with developing apps.

It states clearly on the page it only works with iOS … why all the confusion with Android users? I suspect that Evernote sees a sizable difference in the actual usage of the mobile apps and that is typically the reason many companies chill on Android.

Anyway … got mine and it’s terrific … I like the multiple tags. Still not totally convinced that it saves much time from just doing it manually and adding tags, but it’s a start. As with the post above, I don’t see the handwriting recognition at all … I’ll poke around. Maybe I’m missing something or it takes a while to register.

Thanks.

  The only confusion is – why NOT Android, why the delay? We are the early adopters.

What if my handwriting is almost illegible? How useful will the smart notebook be then?

I’m already a premium user. Is there an expiry date on the 3 months premium coupon?
