\"Handwritten<\/a><\/p>\n

Taking notes used to be easy; you grabbed a notebook and a pen, and you started writing. Then along came the era of the smartphone and tablet, and suddenly people had the idea that you could write legibly with a finger or a stylus. Writing with a stylus usually required an app that would reject the force of your palm on the display of the device, and for many people that didn\u2019t work. Well, a new iOS app from Creaceed<\/a> called Carbo<\/a> (launch price US $3.99, regular price $7.99) wants to bring your handwritten notes into the digital age, and it does that very well.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll go back to the old way of taking notes; using your handwriting, adding diagrams or drawings, even doodling in the margins. Once your note is done, launch Carbo and use the app to capture a picture of the page. The app has tools to stabilize your photo and get rid of perspective, so there\u2019s no worry about whether or not the page is perfectly aligned in the app.<\/p>\n

Once captured, there\u2019s a slider that\u2019s used to adjust the contrast of the image. With one more tap, the image is saved onto your iPhone or iPad and then the magic really begins.<\/p>\n
