Does the "convert to text" feature work as nicely and smoothly as advertised in the Remarkable 2 launch video[0]? If yes, then that alone is worth the price for me. I've tried a number of solutions that have claimed to do this over the years and none of them really work.

- ACS_Solver 7y agoThere are, as you might expect, a few caveats. The conversion relies on some kind of cloud service (possibly Google's Cloud Vision API). So you need to be connected and there are privacy/security implications. And, it's very dependent on your handwriting. I cannot get coherent results with that feature, but my handwriting is as readable as base64-encoded Perl. I've seen it produce impressively good results when other people try it. The process itself is indeed smooth, select an item in the menu and a few seconds later you have the text, which can then be emailed.
