1. Introduction: about the Smart Writing Set
At Moleskine we believe in the timeless power of handwriting as an essential expression of human
civilization, a powerful act to unleash human genius and foster the development and sharing of
literacy and knowledge. Handwriting is both universal and deeply personal. It’s a thoughtful way to
express your true self and connect to others in a very intimate yet universally accessible way.
Put pen to paper and unleash your unique voice.
We also believe in the infinite potential for continuity and connection between analogue and digital
tools. This bridging of page and screen is essential to fulfil our users’ needs.
Moleskine Smart is an ecosystem of smart tools and services designed to simplify the creative and
productive process, allowing an idea to evolve naturally on paper before being edited and shared
digitally.

4.2 Battery charge and battery life
The Smart Pen (new version) can only be charged using the specific cable provided with it in
the Smart Writing Set (POGO magnetic connector → USB). The USB port can be connected to
any smartphone charger/pc USB power port)
The Moleskine Smart Pen takes about 2 hours to fully charge. The fully charged Moleskine
Smart Pen will provide from 8 to 11 hours of non-stop writing (depending if eco-mode is
switched on).
The Pen+ Ellipse provides a continuous usage of 5 hours.
4.3 Power on/off
Auto on: Auto-on is a setting that means that the Smart Pen switches on automatically when it
touches the page and you start writing. Auto-on is activated by default after the Smart Pen is first
paired with the Notes App, but can be disabled on the Smart Pen info and Settings page (icon in
the top right corner or in the left menu > Pen Manager > Smart Pen)
Automatic power-off is set by default with the Smart Pen’s 20-minute battery-save mode.
The battery may be low when first purchased and we strongly recommend charging before use. It
takes 2 hours to fully charge the Smart Pen. Check the “Battery charge and battery life” section for
more information about the battery.

To use the reset feature, press the Smart Pen power button for about 10 seconds.
4.3.1 Formatting your Smart Pen
When you wish to cancel all the data stored in the Smart Pen, you can format it by keeping the
power button pressed for 10-15 seconds.
To delete the data currently stored in the Smart Pen memory, pair the Smart Pen and insert the
wrong passcode 10 times.
4.3.2 Setting a passcode
The passcode will allow you to keep your data protected. Should anyone else use your pen, they
could format it and use it but they won’t be able to access your notes. You can set it during the initial
set up, as suggested, or decide to skip it. If you wish to add it later on, pressing on the pen icon on
the upper corner right, you can insert the Password (4 digits). If you enter the wrong password 10
times, the data stored in the internal memory of the pen will be erased.

page. Move the slider in the Pen Calibration graph so that your handwriting appears thicker or
thinner based on your unique writing style.
If you have already registered your Smart Pen, you can explore this function by clicking on the pen
icon on the top right of the app page, then going to the calibration section

colors.
The Smart Writing Set comes with 2 Ink refills, one already in the Smart Pen and a spare. We can
provide a recommended refill list to guarantee the best performance of the Moleskine Smart Pen:
Ncoded technology uses carbon ink, so all pen strokes need to be carbon-free in order not to affect
recognition precision.

5. Our portfolio: Moleskine Smart Notebooks
This new way of writing puts together the Smart Pen and Ncoded Smart Notebooks to
digitize your handwritten ideas. Ncode is a technology that uses invisible patterns of dots

or lines within the pages of our beloved notebooks. With the help of the Smart Pen, your notes and
sketches are instantly recreated on your device. Ncode paper helps the Smart Pen digitize every line
and word you add to the page. Ncode is also designed to allow you to identify an exact location in a
specific Smart Notebook.
Our current Smart portfolio features Smart Notebooks (hard cover black, ruled, large and XL) and
Smart Cahiers (pocket, large ruled and XL Plain). More Moleskine Smart Notebooks will be available
soon.
Discover all available Smart Notebooks here:

Discover the Smart Writing System here:
https://www.moleskine.com/en-us/shop/moleskine-smart/smart-writing-system/
5.1 Compatibility Smart Pen versions/Smart Notebooks
All you need is a Moleskine Smart Notebook featuring the Ncoded technology: a hidden grid
embedded within the paper enables the Moleskine Smart Pen to recognize both individual pages and
where you are on each page. Both our previous Smart Pens are compatible with our current Smart
Notebooks. See the following link to buy the Smart Writing system.
More Moleskine Smart Notebooks featuring Ncoded paper will be introduced in the future.
5.2 Using more than one notebook
The Moleskine Smart Pen can recognize where you are in each Smart Notebook thanks to a hidden
grid embedded within each page. Notebooks that use this technology are coded according to type.
You will find all your notebooks listed in the Notes App, however, if you wish to use two notebooks of
the same type, the app will recognise them as one. Please block the one you will not be using. Please
refer to the Notebook Lock and Unlock feature in the Main Menu to be able to keep both within the
Notes App, but always keep just one active.
By pressing the lock icon (second one on the lower bar), you will be able to block the Smart
Notebook

5.2.1 Virtual notebooks
Please remember that with the new Notes App, it is no longer possible to create a “virtual notebook”
by matching pages from different physical Smart Notebooks.
6. Our portfolio: Smart Planners
6.1 Getting started with Smart Planners
Our current Smart portfolio features the Smart Planner (hard cover, black, weekly 12-month) and the
Smart Planner Pro (hard cover, black, weekly, 12-month).
Smart Planner Pro
Discover our Smart Planners here:
https://www.moleskine.com/en-us/shop/moleskine-smart/smart-writing-system/smart-planner/
Discover the Smart Writing System here:
https://www.moleskine.com/en-us/shop/moleskine-smart/smart-writing-system/
The Smart Planner gives you a new way of planning.
The first time you write in your Smart Planner, you'll be invited to connect it to a digital calendar
on your device. Setting up this connection will allow the Notes App to create events on the device
calendar that mirror the ones you write on paper.
In order to connect your planner to your device, please follow these steps:
Connect your Smart Pen to your device (see the steps above)
Once you start writing in your Smart Planner, the Smart Pen will recognise the page and type of
notebook.
Within the Notes App you can see all your Smart Notebooks and Smart Planners on the main
page (Notebooks page) and block the ones you are not using.
The Smart Planner has different page layouts: Monthly, Weekly Vertical and Weekly Horizontal
(PRO). Depending on the page layout, some information about your events is automatically
recognized, then you can add additional information like start time and duration as specified in
this guide.
6.1.2 Migrating from a previous version of the Moleskine Notes App
In the former Notes App, digital calendars were updated via the “Authentication Center”, while in the
current Notes App they synchronize directly with the digital calendars connected to your device.

6.2 Type of Smart Planner
The Weekly Planner features the days of the week listed vertically on the left page opposite an extra
page for notes.
The Weekly Pro Planner features the days of the week in columns, with lines for time slots.
The Monthly Planner, integrated as a special view in the Smart Planner and in the Smart Planner Pro.
Discover our Smart Planners here:
https://www.moleskine.com/en-us/shop/moleskine-smart/smart-writing-system/smart-planner/
6.3 Smart Planner compatibility
A digitized version of your Smart Planner will be available on whichever device has your Moleskine
Notes App and which is linked to your Smart Pen. Please check above for app and device
compatibility information.
Once your events are synced with your digital calendar, they will be available on all the devices you
have synced to your calendar account.
6.4 Modify events and duration
You can edit or cancel events within your preferred digital calendar.
(If you strike through an event in your Smart Planner, it will appear struck through in the digital
version of your Smart Planner within the Moleskine Notes App. However, the event will not then be
deleted from your preferred digital calendar). You can also edit the duration of single events you
have already created.
6.5 Appointment sync with the application off
Appointments are synced only when the Smart Pen is connected to the Moleskine Notes App via
Bluetooth.
If you write an event off-line (you write in Smart Diary/Planner PRO with your Smart Pen turned on,
but without connecting to the Notes App) the event/s in question will be synced to your calendar the
moment you connect your Smart Pen to the Moleskine Notes App.
6.6 Sync Smart Planner with online calendars if you missed the initial set up
Open the notebook within the Notes App and a list of the pages is shown
- Tap on the "tag" button, the first at the bottom of the screen
Tap on "Calendar to sync with" and select the calendar (Grant permissions to Calendar)
- Switch on the "Auto-sync calendar" toggle
Once this is done you should be able to see the transcription in the transcription view and see the
detail of the event.

6.7 Writing event slots
The Smart Planner currently supports the following time format: 12 hour AM/PM notation.
The 24-hour clock is not currently recognized.
The Smart Planner supports the following formats for indicating time span:
Format
Example
hh:mm AM or PM - hh:mm AM or PM
1PM- 3PM Lunch with John
hh:mm AM or PM - hh:mm
1PM-3 Lunch with John
hh:mm - hh:mm AM or PM
1-3PM Lunch with John
All of these examples will create a 2-hour event from 1PM to 3PM
If you only specify an event start time in the Smart Planner, a 1-hour event is automatically created in
your digital calendar.
6.8 Create an all-day event slot
To create an all-day event, simply write the event name without specifying a time.
Time formats such as AM and PM are NOT recognized while creating an all-day event.
6.9 Overnight events
You can write events that last up to 23 hours and 59 minutes from any time on one day to the next.
Simply record the event and timing on the start date.
For example: 09PM – 01AM Gala dinner
