Not compatible with chromebook as what was stated
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not compatible with the chromebook we bought. No detailed instructions on how to use it. 2 geek squad member looked at it and. tested but didn’t work on both times even one tried changing the battery. So we returned it and found one online which is way cheaper and works with the chromebook.

Try before you buy.

Posted .When you called HP about this did they inform you if your HP Chromebook was USI compliant or not. The Active Stylus will work with Chromebooks that are USI compliant. If you are not sure, there is a way that you may be able to tell. Try going into your settings, once there look for Stylus tools. If it is there check to make sure that it has been activated. If it is not there then the Chromebook is most likely not USI compliant. If you have any questions please reach out to our customer support team at 877-482-7487 Monday thru Friday 10 Am to 7 PM EST.

Posted .I am sorry to hear that this Active Stylus did not work with your Samsung Chromebook. There are some Chromebooks that are not USI compliant, which is what is needed for the Active Stylus to work with it. If your Chromebook is USI compliant you may need to activate it. To do this go into your settings and look for Stylus Tools. From there you will be able to activate it. If you have any other questions or concerns please reach out to us at 877-482-7487 Monday thru Friday 10 AM to 7 PM EST. We will be happy to help.

did not work with my chromebook
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.doesn't come with anything to help you set up if set up is needed. way too pricey since it doesn't tell you which Chromebooks it's compatible with because it's clearly not compatible with all of them unless I am wrong. I WILL be returning this item, and I'm not happy with it. very upset that youtube or google couldn't even help set it up. I would not tell anyone to get the stylus, as I had no luck with it, very poor way of getting people to buy a stylus for Chromebook laptops by saying it's compatible but not telling you which ones. as an artist it is very hard to find a good stylus that will work for my dell chromebook (which did come with a stylus but it stopped working over the years and I no longer have due to losing it in my move)
