Use S Pen Pro features with your Galaxy phone

Here is how to connect your S Pen Pro:

Once your S Pen is paired to the first device, press the Connection button. A pop-up will appear on the screen of the second compatible device; tap Connect on the pop-up to use your S Pen on that device instead.

When using Easy device switching, make sure to also use the Mode switch on the S Pen if needed. For example, if you want to switch from your Galaxy Z Fold3 5G to your Galaxy S22 Ultra, move the Mode switch from Z Fold mode to S Pen mode.

If you need to quickly change devices when using the S Pen Pro, you can use the Easy device switching and Easy Finding features. These allow you to conveniently switch between compatible devices that use S Pens, including the Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G, Galaxy S22 Ultra, Galaxy Note series phones, and the Galaxy Tab7.

You can also use the new Quick Create feature with the S Pen Pro. Just hold down the Pen button on the side of the S Pen and tap twice on the screen to begin a new note. Plus, the "S Pen to Text" feature allows you to automatically convert your handwriting to text when you write on the screen.

The following options will be available:

• Screen off memo: You can create notes when the screen is asleep using Screen off memo. Just press the Pen button and then tap the screen while it is off. Tap Save in the top right when you are finished writing; your note will be saved to Samsung Notes.

• Quick create notes: When the screen is on, press and hold the Pen button, and then tap the screen twice to bring up a new note in Samsung Notes. Tap the Back icon when you are finished writing; your note will be saved.

• S Pen to text: You can use your S Pen to write in search fields and address bars, and your writing will be converted to text automatically. You can also revise your writing by scratching it out or adding to it.

• Air view: Allows you to preview text, images, and webpages when you hover your S Pen over the screen.

• Show pointer when hovering: A small circle will appear whenever you hover your S Pen over the screen.

• Shortcuts: You can add or remove apps and services from the Air command menu.

• Show air command icon: A floating pen icon will appear when you hover your S Pen over the screen.

• Open Air command with Pen button: The Air command menu will open when you hover your S Pen over the screen and press the Pen button.

• Sounds: Enable writing sounds when you are using your S Pen, so it feels like you are writing with a real pen.

This tip is spring loaded and designed to retract into the S Pen’s body if too much force is used while writing or tapping. You will not need to worry about accidentally damaging the screen with your S Pen!
