Simply Customize It!

Back when I first bought my reMarkable e-paper device I decided I needed to change out the custom templates and then I really wanted to switch out the sleep screen image. This led to me writing a couple how to posts (check them out here!), getting questions, and ultimately working on implementing an Apple app. It is now out on both macOS and iOS devices so you can also change out your templates and screens with a simple button press making it a perfectly simple way to help turn your favorite e-ink device into a better device for you!

Tested on reMarkable 2. The newly announched reMarkable Paper Pro has not been tested against my app but I have ordered it to test, on my own, for future updates.

Paper Pro?

I have since ordered the reMarkable Paper Pro and played around with it. I have it connecting and got my sleep screens working. Next I'm going to see if the custom templates work and then clean it up before pushing an update. At worst the screen images will be updated to work on the new reMarkable.

I love being able to set a photo as my sleep screen on both the reMarkable 2 and reMarkable Paper Pro. It's a perfect desk frame when not in use.

And here is the same image in landscape mode as I rotated it instead of cropping like above.

If you sign up for the  Simply Customize It newsletter, by creating a free account here, you'll be messaged whenever there's an update pushed to the app store.

That said, to use Simply Customize It on the reMarkable Paper Pro you will need to put your reMarkable into developer mode and turn on the WLAN setting. Check out this post about how to do this here: Learn How to Access Your reMarkable Paper Pro Through the Command Line

Warning: I don't know what future reMarkable software updates will bring.

I have also ordered the new reMarkable Paper Pro and am waiting for it to ship and arrive so I can test my app with it and plan to update the app, if needed, once ready.

Legalities

I've posted both a privacy policy and a terms of user agreement for this app.

This app was created to work with my reMarkable 2 device after having posted tutorials on my blog. That said, I have no association with reMarkable and am not affiliated with them.
