Getting New Applications
Livescribe and other companies offer applications for your Livescribe™ smartpen. You can download
these from the Livescribe Online Store. Just go to
www.livescribe.com/store
and browse the
applications available. Some applications are free and others are available for purchase. These
applications are designed to work like the built-in applications that come with your Livescribe™
smartpen. Visit the store regularly to check for new updates.
After you download a new application, you can use Livescribe™ Desktop and add it to any Livescribe
smartpen registered to your Livescribe account.
All applications are added through Livescribe Desktop. Livescribe Desktop adds downloaded
applications to your smartpen under the
Applications
menu. This menu is the first menu item
underneath the Main Menu and is available after you add your first downloaded application.
