Good product, glad I bought it
Despite the bad reviews, I bought two and my gamble worked out very well. It is exactly as I imagined and works great. But when drawing the precision is a little off, so I zoom in when drawing. If your intending to buy it as a drawing stylus I wouldn't recommend it.The magnet works good on my otter case, you just have to leave it on long enough and in the meanwhile just slip the stylus off instead of pulling.It charges good and lasts a long time! I can leave a stylus without a charge for a couple days.The photo feature works fine but admittedly I don't use it much. But when I need a good distance photo it comes in handy.I don't think the tip will scratch the screen but I use a screen protector nonetheless.Good product, glad I bought it too.

Okaish. Probably I got a faulty piece. Not for artists.
It's a good stylus but I should've researched a bit more on it before getting it. I had expectations that it would be a pressure sensitive stylus when I saw that it's an active stylus, but that was wrong. It works like a normal stylus except it gives you precision of a point. That's it. No pressure sensitivity. I think I chose this as this kinda resembled the Pencil by 53.Apart from that, it kinda works. Kinda because the lines are not drawn precisely underneath the tip. There's a big offset which I'm guessing is because of magnetic interference of the phone with the stylus. Tried re-pairing it, still the same. The camera shutter feature didn't work for me. I wonder if I got a faulty piece. That said, I would recommend you to get something else. Maybe their higher version - pixel or some other brand. Personally I would choose Pencil by 53 as I found it delightful to use and the pressure sensitivity is good.I tried it on my iPhone 5S without any screen protectors (Yes I live life dangerously)

The magnet is INTERFERING with SOME devices
UPDATED BELOW. PLEASE READ BELOW, in the updates, where I explain why the stylus does not work properly with *some* devices.ORIGINAL POST:I'm a collage artist, and an illustrator. I bought an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil recently, which are awesome. However, I wanted a similar stylus to the Apple one for the rest of my devices (I have more iPads, and Android phones+tablets). So I tried this one, and I absolutely love it! Bluetooth works as advertised, and the stylus even works without pairing.Now, I don't use this product for notes and such (which admittedly it's what it was made for). I use it only for illustration. I need to clear this up a bit, because this stylus won't work properly for all illustrators, and won't work for almost any painter (if we could draw a virtual line between illustrators and painters in terms of visual style).There are two features that digital artists need from their active styluses:1. The ability to have thin or thick lines, depending on how they hold the stylus (pressure sensitivity)2. Palm rejection (so the device doesn't think that your palm resting on it is actually drawing)This stylus doesn't have pressure support, so for most artists who use that feature, it might not be a great deal. However, for artists who sketch, who do comics outlines, and who do plain illustration (basically, inked outlines with coloring inside -- a type very popular today called "lifestyle illustrations", or fashion illustration), this works perfectly on my iPad!As for palm rejection: you're not supposed to draw without artist's gloves. Even with the Apple Pencil, that supports palm rejection, the iPad Pro constantly interprets my palm as drawing. Possibly as much as once a minute or so, which is annoying. Without the usage of artist's gloves (they cost just $5), you're asking for trouble anyway. So I don't see palm rejection missing on this stylus as a problem since gloves are a must anyway.I quickly tested the stylus on these devices successfully (latest software installed on all):- Amazon Fire, 7"- OnePlus One, 5.5"- Moto G4 Plus, 5.5"- iPad Pro, 12.9"- iPad 2, 9.7"- iPod Touch, 6th GenThe stylus worked both as Bluetooth and as active stylus in all configurations, except the old iPad 2, which doesn't support the kind of Bluetooth that this stylus requires (it still works perfectly in stylus mode though).**UPDATE 1:** I just discovered something, that could explain why people have so split opinions on this product. I also changed my rating from 5 stars to 3 stars because of this discovery.So, I placed my devices on top of my desk, made out of WOOD, and the stylus started MISBEHAVING. On the Moto G4 Plus, only 1/4th of the strokes would register, and on the Amazon Fire only half the strokes would register, and even worse, the lines were jerky and squishy (not perfect lines as drawn). On top of wood, only very slanted strokes would register 100% (which makes it impossible to draw).Then, I tried on top of my kitchen table which is made out of GLASS. SAME problem, with the SAME devices!When I placed the same devices on top of METAL (in fact, I placed them on top of my bamboo wacom tablet), the stylus started working MUCH BETTER (just not perfectly).They worked PERFECTLY only on top of my lap, or my hand (in the air).This happened with both Bluetooth on or off on the devices.However, the OnePlus One phone AND the iPod/iPads worked perfectly, no matter if it was on top of wood, or metal, or skin/air, or glass. Only the Moto G4 Plus and Amazon Fire only worked properly atop specific surfaces! Is it because these two specific devices don't have a compass? This is the only common thread I found between all these devices that could interfere with the stylus: the fact that the Moto G4 Plus and Fire 7" (from all of my devices) don't have a compass!So, there is definitely something weird that happens with SOME devices when sitting atop SPECIFIC surfaces, that throws the stylus out of whack. It's possible that it's the magnet inside the stylus to blame (in conjunction to the missing compass on devices???), but I'll leave that to the engineers to find out what is going on. This is an issue that needs to be sent to the Adonit engineers ASAP.** UPDATE 2:** Confirmed with further testing, the problem seems to be the MAGNET on the stylus. Both the two problematic devices (Moto G4 Plus, and Amazon Fire 7") are MAGNETIC to the stylus out of the box, without even having to use the included magnet accessory (the stylus just sticks to them at any point in their body). Because the stylus is very magnetic to these devices when directly on top of the screen, it INTERFERES with its proper operation.On the iPod/iPads and the OnePlus One the stylus is only magnetic on the SIDES, away from the screen, and that's why the stylus works well on these devices at all times!Mystery solved, and it explains why so many people here have trouble with the stylus. It begs the question if Adonit actually tested their product properly with enough Android devices. I think they didn't. Magnet interference should have shown up during testing. They should not have assumed that all devices aren't magnetic directly under the screen.** UPDATE 3 **: After more testing with even more devices, the stylus just doesn't work properly. Not only it has the problems explained above, but it also writes (when it writes) off, about 1 cm away from where its tip is. Impossible to be precise with it. I have updated my rating down to 1 star.

I wish Apple made a stylus for the iPhone
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and I wanted a stylus for my IPhone 6s+ so I ordered the "Snap". It is the right size and the color goes with my phone perfectly. It is easy to pair. It all depends on the app how well this stylus works. It does not work well with the stock Note app on iOS. I like the way it works with the "Memo" app. I do not have an iPad. There is some lag in the lines. But it will work ok for taking notes in church. I debated sending it back, but after a day of use, I've learned how to use it better. But it is different from the rubber tip styluses.

Works beautifully.
I bought the Adonit Snap Fine Point for my iPad Air 2. I wanted a stylus to use with my iPad for the Pigment app but didn't feel running out to purchase the iPad Pro and Apple Pencil was a good choice since I could get the iPad air 2 for free through my provider. I didn't expect much from this little stylus however it surprised me. It works like a dream across all my devices, Android and Apple alike. The shape of the stylus may take a bit of getting used too but outside of that it's awesome. I highly recommend this item, of course you can find better but not in this price range.

Not for fast handwritten notes
first what I like about it. I like the design and it is very lightweight. It connected easily via Bluetooth. I like being able to snap photos with it.What I did like was the precision was sometimes off. It seemed to get better when I slowed the handwriting. It works at a hard angle which makes it difficult for me. It will not write if your palm is on the screen. At times it will not write the entire word. Sort of skips. Sometimes the letters end up connected. At times it does not write at all. Not sure why it had this issue. Perhaps it is a connectivity issue. The tip is a what feels like hard plastic.I prefer the Apple Pencil. But this product was worth checking out and I plan on using it for photo taking.I think it has a chance for improvement. I think it is better for drawing.Devices used: iPad Pro :notability, good notes, notesSamsung note 5 works in google keep drawing, camera
