Magic

As standard ...
Every Paperlike has a little bit of magic engineered into its surface with our Nanodots technology. These microbeads are distributed across the screen protector and make your Apple Pencil vibrate ever so slightly so it feels like you're writing on paper. They’re specially designed so that the display light shines around and through them to minimize refractions. So unlike other screen protectors, Paperlike will never spoil your view.

"You have to try this!"

There is actually a lot more resistance between the tip of the pencil and the display now - it really changes the way the iPad feels.

“I'm drawing on clouds of cotton candy”

The nice texture and grip, make it easier to get what I have in my head on to the screen.

"A must-have for graphic designers!"

I always loved the idea of Paperlike. Being able to add this tiny layer to your iPad - that makes it so much easier to write and draw on the display - is incredible!

"Feels like a massive upgrade"

If you do a lot of handwritten notes or drawing on your iPad, the new PaperLike is a must. The newest version only doubles down on what made this product great to begin with.

About Paperlike

Hi, I'm Jan, founder and creator of Paperlike. I always wanted to work paperless and was super excited when the iPad Pro and the Pencil first came out. But then I tried them. The feeling of hard rubber writing on glass was awkward, and my Pencil was sliding all over the screen. I needed a better solution but couldn't find one. 

So I threw myself into developing my own solution and came up with what you now know as Paperlike. A Kickstarter in 2017 showed I wasn’t the only one with these issues and led to the founding of Paperlike as a company.

In 2019 with a small, dedicated team around me, we went to Kickstarter again to make a next-generation, even better version of the Paperlike. And we’re excited to share Paperlike 2 with you today.

I still use my iPad with Paperlike on a daily basis, as do thousands of artists, creators, and doers all around the world.

For that, I'm very thankful.
