What is reMarkable?

reMarkable is a desktop companion app for Mac that works with reMarkable paper tablets and the reMarkable cloud account. It helps users access their notebooks, PDFs, ebooks, and other synced documents on a larger screen for reading, review, and organization. The app is commonly used to move between handwritten work on a tablet and desktop-based workflows, including presenting content with Screen Share and managing files from a computer. It fits best for students, professionals, and teams who use a reMarkable device for note-taking, annotation, or document review and want their content available across devices. On macOS, it serves as a focused bridge between the paper tablet experience and everyday desktop work.

Safety overview

Status: Safe

This is a legitimate companion app for reMarkable devices. It normally needs network access to sync your documents and account data across devices, which is expected for its purpose. If you use shared or work-managed Macs, remember that files visible in the app may include notes, PDFs, and other personal or business documents from your reMarkable account.

Recommendation: Keep reMarkable if you use a reMarkable tablet or rely on synced notebooks and documents on your Mac. If you no longer use the device or its cloud sync features, you can remove the app, but your desktop access to that content and related workflows will stop.
