Save Boox Notes to Google Drive
To save your Boox notes to Google Drive, share the pages to the Flowstate app right on your Boox. Flowstate transcribes the handwriting and saves each note as a Google Doc in the folder you choose, usually within a couple of minutes.

Why Google Drive can't do this on its own
Boox can sync files to Google Drive, but your pages arrive as PDFs (or rough OCR), not editable Google Docs. It won't clean up the handwriting, follow your shorthand, or append to an existing doc automatically.
Share to Flowstate
- Install Flowstate on your Boox tablet.
- Use any handwriting app of your choice to take notes. Tap the share icon. Pick Flowstate.
- If you want, you can give Flowstate optional instructions for how to read your notes. For example, tell Flowstate how to interpret your shorthand, or how to turn handwritten symbols into formatting, tags, and more.
- Send it off!
Flowstate takes it from there
Common questions
Does Flowstate run on the tablet itself?
Yes. It's a regular Android app, installed from Google Play right on the device.
What format do the notes arrive in?
Each note becomes its own Google Doc in the folder you choose, or gets appended to an existing Doc.
How much does it cost?
Flowstate runs on credits. One page of handwriting, or one minute of audio, is one credit. You start with 50 free credits, no card required, and top up whenever you're running low. Purchased credits never expire.
Does Flowstate rewrite my notes?
No. It transcribes what you wrote, cleans up the formatting, and files it where it belongs. Your words stay your words.
