I’ve seen a few comments about the software feeling a little clunky, and that’s a fair observation from the outside. So I want to explain what’s really happening behind the scenes. The reMarkable tablet is designed to be a distraction-free writing device, not a high-performance computer. Because of that, it runs with: • Very limited RAM and processing power • Storage optimized for battery life and ink stability—not speed • File operations that naturally take longer than what we’re used to on phones or laptops Meanwhile, the CalSync desktop app is running many times faster than the tablet itself. So when it feels like the app is “waiting,” what’s actually happening is this: The app is intentionally pausing so the tablet can safely catch up. Those pauses allow the device to: • Finish writing files correctly • Refresh its internal indexes • Prevent planner corruption or crashes If we pushed everything at full speed, it could break planners, lose data, or freeze the device—and protecting your files always comes first. The easiest way to picture it: It’s like a hungry dog waiting for food. The dog is ready instantly… but it still has to wait for the owner to place the bowl down safely. In this case: Your computer = the fast, hungry dog The reMarkable = the careful owner placing the bowl We know waiting isn’t glamorous, and we’re continuously optimizing every step. But those brief pauses are there for one reason: To keep your planner, your data, and your device safe. And we truly appreciate everyone here who’s been patient, supportive, and part of improving CalSync every day.

So it has been a few days since the rollout of V12, and it seems to be working well. There are a couple of things that I did notice though. When my calendar events change, I have to regenerate and push again. I thought it was supposed to automatically refresh based on the selected interval. Due to this, anything that I have written in disappears and I lose those notes. Is this how it was planned to work?

Is anyone else here a math teacher? I am curious how you use it and what functionalities you incorporate.
