# Stylus, handwriting and hardware

**Kaligo is a handwriting learning app.**
For an optimal experience, using a stylus is strongly recommended, even if it is not always mandatory depending on the device.

### ✍️ Is a stylus recommended to use Kaligo?

Yes, a stylus is essential for properly working on handwriting skills.
Writing with a finger does not provide enough precision and does not reproduce the expected writing movement.

👉 To ensure your child fully benefits from Kaligo exercises, we therefore recommend using a stylus.
