Software matters

Some C-Pen models works stand-alone and does not require connection to a computer or smartphone. These models have all functions and content embedded into the device software – called firmware. On regular basis we release firmware updates.

Other models are designed specifically to work as an accessory, connected wired or wirelessly to a computer or smartphone. In these cases content and features are implemented in the app rather than in device.
