After creating your account, XNote guides you through a personalized setup. A progress bar at the top of each step shows your current position.
Step 1 : Enter Your Name
Enter your full name. A minimum of 2 characters is required.
Step 2 : Select Writing Language
Choose your writing language from a grid of 25 supported languages with flag emojis. Languages are displayed in a 3-column grid layout. Use the search bar at the top to filter by English name or native name. Your browser language is auto-detected as the default.
Step 3 : Select Handedness
Choose whether you are left-handed or right-handed. The two options are displayed as large cards with hand emoji icons in a 2-column layout. A checkmark badge appears on the selected option.
Note: Unlike the mobile app, there is no Mirror Writing option on web. Mirror Writing is a mobile-only feature (see 2.7.1).

After completing these steps, you will proceed to Pen Setup to connect your XNote Smart Pen (see 3.4).
