My shop switched from paper logbooks to tablets for inspections two months ago

We used to have a stack of paper forms for a C-check that took three hours just to sort and file. Now we use Samsung tablets with a digital checklist app that flags missing items in red. The change happened after a 737 got delayed because a fuel valve sign-off got misfiled. Has anyone else made this switch and how do you handle the older guys who hate the new screens?

Old paper never crashed or needed a software update.

Did you ever have a teacher who made you rewrite an entire essay because you used the wrong kind of pencil?

My laptop just forced a restart on me during a meeting, so I feel you haydenc10. Paper is sounding pretty good right now.
