    Desktop app

    The reMarkable desktop app lets you view, Screen Share, organize, import, and download files.

    Once you have set up the desktop and/or mobile app, your device is paired with the reMarkable cloud. All your notebooks, documents, and ebooks will be synced across your devices when connected to Wi-Fi.

    The desktop app can be installed on the following operating systems:

    • Windows 10 and newer
