To turn a page on your reMarkable 2, simply swipe left or right on the screen.


Navigating Pages on Your reMarkable 2

The reMarkable 2's e-paper display is designed for an intuitive reading and writing experience, and turning pages is as simple as a natural gesture. Whether you're reading a document, flipping through a PDF, or reviewing your handwritten notes in a notebook, the primary method for page navigation remains consistent.

Swiping to Turn Pages

The most common and straightforward way to move between pages on your reMarkable 2 involves simple finger gestures. This method applies universally across PDFs, notebooks, eBooks, and other document types.

  • Swipe Left: To advance to the next page, make a smooth, quick swipe motion from right to left across the screen.
  • Swipe Right: To return to the previous page, swipe from left to right across the screen.

This gesture-based navigation makes interacting with your digital content feel much like reading a physical book or flipping through a notebook. While reading or making annotations with your chosen writing tool from the toolbar, a quick swipe is all it takes to seamlessly move to the next section or review a previous one.

Practical Tips for Page Turning

  • Firm Contact: Ensure your finger makes good, firm contact with the screen for the swipe to register accurately.
  • Smooth Motion: A clear, continuous swipe from one side of the screen to the other is generally more effective than short, choppy movements.
  • Consistency: This method works uniformly, whether you're in a dense academic PDF, a personal journal, or an imported eBook.
