My manager gave me a Rocket Book hybrid planner/ notebook for Christmas. I love planners and I take detailed notes during every meeting so this was a great gift. I enjoyed it so much and found so much value in it that I ordered this pocket notebook for use in the field.
But, I am using it in my personal life as well; it’s the perfect size for grocery lists and fits perfectly in my small purse.
I love the fact I can use the app to send a copy of whatever I write to my email addresses. This is highly useful for meeting notes.
The frixion pen ink truly wipes clean off the page, allowing the book to be used over and over again. This saves on unnecessary trash in landfills.
The frixion pens glide effortlessly across the page with a smoothness unmatched by ballpoint or gel pens on regular paper.
Is Rocket Book an initial small/medium investment? Yes, it is seeing as one can buy a pocket notebook for a buck. Do I think Rocket Book is worth the money? Yes! I will end up saving money overall and not have used notebooks laying around or being thrown away and meeting notes don’t have to be scanned into the computer.
I highly recommend Rocket Book. In my opinion the binding and covers are very durable and I believe I’ll get years of use from them.

The good bits: it works well with the app and means I’m only ever carrying a blank notebook. I write copious notes during the course of my work and this is lighter and more manageable than my usual 150 page A4 notebook. It seems sturdy enough, I guess the expense is in the technology. Wet wipes work well when clearing the text, it’s a bit messy cleaning a full page of notes but the towel provided with the book comes in handy. It took a bit of practice getting the scans readable and I would suggest scanning in lower light conditions so that the flash is activated. There is a capability for scanning multiple pages and sending them as a single file which also is quite handy.
The iffy bits: it still seems expensive for what it is, also the pens aren’t cheap compared to a standard ballpoint and don’t seem to last very long. Mine have lasted just over a week and therefore the book won’t ever pay for itself as a replacement for conventional note taking. That said, I personally think that the ease of use outweighs this. The files are uploaded to Rocketbook’s servers so this system is unsuitable for confidential notes and the whole system is dependent on them maintaining that service. It would have been better for the app to make use of the apps on my phone; this would also relieve the company from the burden of maintaining a server and ensure the durability and security of the system. The book itself is quite well made but crying out for a better, more rigid cover. The pages have guide dots printed on them and I would have preferred alternating lines and dots for writing and drawing. I have got round this by drawing my own lines in with a grey sharpie (doesn’t wash away with the text) and this works fine. A 0.7 nib definitely works better than the 0.5 pen I got with the book. The plus side is that the pen is a ‘clicker’ and so I only need to buy refills rather than whole pens.

O caderno possui folhas especiais nas quais podemos escrever com a caneta indicada (ex. FriXion da Pilot) e depois utilizando o paninho que vem junto com o caderno, devendo ele estar umedecido, podemos apagar o que foi escrito sem deixar marcas ou manchas.
Com isso podemos reutilizá-lo quantas vezes for necessário.
Da minha experiência em mais de uma semana de uso diário posso afirmar que ele funciona bem.

First things first, the Rocketbook is like no other notebook out there. It combines the best of both worlds: the joy of scribbling on paper and the convenience of going digital. With its reusable pages, I can jot down my lecture notes, doodle my heart out, and then simply wipe it clean with a damp cloth. No more wasting paper or money on countless notebooks!
But here’s where it gets even better. The Rocketbook comes with a nifty smartphone app that takes your note-taking experience to a whole new level. Just snap a picture of your handwritten notes using the app, and boom! It magically saves them to your favorite cloud services like Google Drive or Dropbox. Say goodbye to losing your precious notes or struggling to find them buried in stacks of paper.
One feature that blew my mind is the smart page detection. The app recognizes the pages of your Rocketbook automatically, ensuring that your scanned notes are perfectly aligned and organized. No more flipping through pages or dealing with messy files.
And let’s talk about organization, my friends. The Rocketbook app lets you assign different symbols or icons to specific destinations like email or cloud storage. So now, with just a simple mark on your page, you can send your notes exactly where they need to go. It’s like having a personal assistant organizing your stuff!
Now, let’s address some concerns. Yes, the Rocketbook has a limited page count, but honestly, it’s a small trade-off for all the benefits it offers. Plus, erasing ink can sometimes be tricky depending on the type you use, but hey, a little ghosting won’t stop me from enjoying this fantastic notebook.
This is a game-changer. It’s perfect for taking class notes, brainstorming ideas, or sketching out those brilliant doodles during boring lectures. And let’s not forget professionals and creatives who crave that tactile writing experience while still needing the convenience of going digital.
In conclusion, if you’re tired of traditional notebooks and want to level up your note-taking game, the Rocketbook is the way to go. It’s different, it’s better, and it’s a total lifesaver for students like you and me. Don’t miss out on this gem!

I purchased this product a year ago and I’ve used it on a regular basis during that year so I believe I am now in a position to post a review.
The pages inside the notebook are a little plastic like but not to an off putting degree. It’s sort of what I expected, a non-porous surface. I like the grid marked on each page which I think is of some assistance when writing or drawing. The grid is visible but not distracting.
The app has improved during my use and is simple to use and does exactly what it should. Pages get uploaded to cloud storage or sent via email, whatever your preferences, without a hitch.
When you have uploaded or finished with a page, it’s a simple job to clean it with a damp cloth. Once it’s dried, a bit of dry tissue can speed up the job if you’re in a hurry, you’re ready to go again.
All good so far.
Now the bad news.
During the life of the notebook, a year so far, the covers, in particular the front, have become distorted. They are now far from flat, each has a definite curve. I have tried bending the covers back, I have tried pressing the covers flat with heavy weights for prolonged periods. Nothing seems to work because, sooner rather than later, the covers are curved just as they were before.
It’s a shame because other than that issue I was very happy with the product. In all honesty, I am unable to recommend this notebook because it’s become a pain in the bum.
UPDATE: The seller has contacted me. Apparently there have been a certain number of notebooks from one production run which had issues with the covers curling.
They have promised to provide me with another notepad. That’s certainly increased the customer service kudos. I’ve updated my rating from 1 star to 2 stars. I will update again when and if I receive the new notepad.
UPDATE 2: Well the book didn’t turn up despite the promise. I waited a month.
In a final move towards completion I sent them an email to remind them of their promise. Hey presto, a few days later a new notebook arrives at my office.
So far so good, no unwanted flexing and bending and everything seems to be in order.
My final verdict.
I am now in a position to recommend the product on the basis that the first book was an isolated manufacturing blip.
As for customer service it seems a bit hot and cold but we got there in the end.

Having read various reviews and watched a couple of YouTube videos before purchasing this product, my only concern was whether the slightly slippery nature of the page surface would make my handwriting too messy or even illegible. The Rocket Book is supplied with a black rollerball pen, and while this gives quite good contrast it is indeed quite slippery on the page surface when compared to traditional paper. I think it’s something I could get used to, but I also purchased some Pilot Frixion Fineliner pens (fibre tips) and I find these are much easier to write with, albeit with less contrast and a slightly thicker line than the rollerball (see image). If you choose to scan the pages with the included app then you can apply various enhancements including increasing the contrast. For everyday notetaking with or without the app The Rocket Book is great. Wiping the page clean with a damp cloth is as easy as it sounds but be aware that a very faint ghost-like image of the writing can remain on the page. This is so faint that it has absolutely no effect on everyday usage – you have to look really hard and hold the page at an angle to a bright light source to see it – but it might be wise not to write down passwords etc. on these pages as they may still be readable for some time after wiping. Another reason that I personally wouldn’t write sensitive information in the notebook is because the scanning app necessarily involves uploading your pages via a 3rd party server over which you have no control. I removed one star for durability because the covers seem prone to scratching and indeed mine arrived pre-scratched! In summary: this is a great note-taking device with a useful and user-friendly app; use a FineLiner if the included rollerball is too slippery on the page surface; and carefully consider whether to use it for sensitive information.
