You can purchase the Jot Script on our website directly through the Evernote market or on Amazon.

What do the LED lights mean?

The LED light is an indicator of if the Script is on, off, or broadcasting. You can turn the stylus on and begin having it broadcasting by pressing the button once. You can stop the broadcasting process if you choose by pressing the button again.

    Original Jot Script
  • Blinking green light = Stylus is broadcasting for connection
  • Single red light = The stylus is off
  • Flashing red light = Replace battery
    Jot Script 2
  • Blinking blue light = Stylus is broadcasting for connection
  • Single red light = The stylus is off
  • Flashing red light = Recharge battery

Jot Script doesn’t appear to be functioning at all, why?

Your Jot Script must be turned on to in order to function, even if you have not paired it. To turn the Script on merely hold the button down until you see a green LED light come on.

Will I ever need to replace the tip?

The tip on the Jot Script is very durable and can be used for over 120 kilometers of writing on glass before a replacement is needed. However in the event your tip becomes damaged please contact us at help@adonit.net.

Adonit wants to keep you scribbling away digitally, and their new Jot Script stylus is their best effort to that end thus far. Though penning a long letter digitally probably isn’t the aim (or your desire), quick notes are. Jot Script 2 boasts improved hardware, and a firm grasp on Penultimate, the note taking app from Evernote. To see if Adonit improved o their original Jot Script enough to make us ditch paper, we took Jot Script 2 and Penultimate for a spin.


As far as the hardware goes, the Jot Script 2 looks just like the original Jot Script, save for it being rechargeable instead of having a removable end-cap for batteries to slide into. Same ribbed design for comfort and grip, same solo button.

Everything is just refined just a bit on the hardware side. The button is a nice, glossy plastic, and the ribbing is bit more comfortable. The tip is a slimmer version of what’s found on the Jot Touch, bringing in Adonit’s responsive Pixelpoint technology. I also like that the new tip is black; it’s less distracting when scribbling down notes, should your eye meet it.

Jot Script 2

The Jot Script 2’s barrel is a touch slimmer, likely because it no longer has to support AA batteries. The tip is also a bit different, again redesigned for newer tech.

Pairing Jot Script 2 is done inside the new Penultimate app, which is Adonit’s tie-in with Evernote. If you buy a Jot Script 2, you’ll also get Evernote Premium free for six months.

As far as use goes — the two are similarly responsive. The Jot Script 2 feels less ‘spongy’, which comes down to feel. Personally, I like the more responsive tip on the Jot Script 2. The original always felt more like I was using a marker with a loose tip. The Jot Script 2 feels much more like an actual pen. As you can see in the sample below (in the gallery), results with the Jot Script 2 were much cleaner (even with my weird handwriting).

That’s due to the Pixelpoint technology, which Adonit fine-tuned for work with the Jot Touch and their Forge app. There are other apps that take advantage of it (more on them in our Jot Touch review), so the new styli are more than just single-app tie-ins.

Palm rejection is also improved with the Jot Script 2. If you’re a lefty like me, you’ll enjoy that feature quite a bit. The first iteration left me routinely opening and closing menus or writing things that didn’t register due to my palm.

Adonit Jot Script 2 Evernote Edition

It’s much more natural than writing with your finger, that’s for sure. Jot Script 2 is nicely responsive, so if you’re deeply involved in the Evernote space, this is the one you’ll want to pick up. The app is sadly iOS-only, so Android fans will need to look elsewhere for note taking.

Jot Script 2 Evernote Edition Stylus

At $74.99, it’s not the most affordable option around. If budget is a concern, we suggest taking a look at the Adonit Jot Pro or Mini. If you’re ready to go premium, and use a dedicated note-taking app like Evernote, the Jot Script 2 is a good option.
