Inklet

Completely trashes your battery. Brand new Macbook Pro 2020, and with this application running and a fully charged battery was dead in 20 minutes. On top of that it works poorly if at all, the "workspace" shows up intermittently. This is a terrible application.

Puts up a popup often, without seeming to do anything.

Awful app. Nothing works and it takes over your macbook

Avoid this software. It's not very useful, except for slowing down your entire machine. My Macbook Pro was running really slow for weeks, then I read an article about removing unneeded Login Items. The instant I removed it, my machine was much more responsive. Then when I restarted, the computer was slow again. Inklet had reinstalled itself into Login Items! You need to uncheck the option in Inklet preferences.

Just played with the demo. Works fine with 2011 MBP running Lion. Any tablet/touchscreen pen works I just used the one for my phone. Was able to detect pressure etc. Quite intuitive I figured out how to expand and move the edit area with ease (2 fingers) Still thinking about buying it

Pretty poor. Nowhere the ease of use of a tablet. I would avoid !

Wow I Had a go and it was really rubbish. Haha.

Inklet installed and activated easily enough. I could get a "workspace" and move it around and resize it, but I could never get it to accept any input, despite trying a number of applications. However, I'll admit I didn't try very long, since the developer's draconian trial limitations do not encourage experimentation. I get to use the workspace less than a minute before receiving a popup that makes me wait 20 seconds before continuing? That is bizarre, irritating, and displays a total lack of respect for prospective customers. Set a total limit of 15-30 days, or even a limit of 30-60 minutes before forcing a restart of the program, but the current mechanism is ludicrous.

I have a MacBook, running Snow Leopard. Tried demo version of Inklet. I must be missing something. When I try to start it, while using Illustrator or other compatible program, I get the error message: Cannot properly start Inklet. No multitouch device detected. Make sure your hardware is compatible. Contact info@tenonedesign.com with any questions. I just deleted it. I'm gonna buy a small Wacom for fifty bucks.

To the Developer: Your trial is preposterous. 40 seconds use before it freezes for 20 seconds is not enough time to try to get this thing to work. You must change the demo type otherwise people will give up in frustration as I have. What I have observed so far is that the handwriting recognition simply failed to work for me at all - only the cursor moves on the Ink tablet with no marks of any kind. I tried this about 10 times before I gave up. Another problem is that the cursor is very jerky. For example just setting the Pogo Sketch down on the trackpad moves the cursor out of the writing area. Once it is down the movement is unpredictable and erratic because every time the Pogo looses contact with trackpad the mouse jumps to a different area. PS Inklet's "Send Feedback" menu option does not do anything from what I can see.

Hmmm. $20 for the software and $15 for a Pogo Stylus, when you can get a Bamboo Pen tablet for $50. Unless you're really needing to eliminate the external tablet, the Wacom probably has far more sensitivity and features.

"No multitouch device detected".. says Inklet when I try to launch it on my: Model Name: MacBook Model Identifier: MacBook4,1 Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz How come ? What kind of MacBook does one need to run this ?
