Touch/Stylus Drawing Mode in Paper

Touch/Stylus Drawing Mode in Paper

Tejas K.1
Helpful | Level 6

To have a drawing toggle, where the user can use a mouse, touch, or stylus to create simple graphics. A simple color palette with an erase and write option will do. This will enable users to note information that they otherwise wouldn't be able to with just text.

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback, this is something that would be great to have incorporated one day within Paper!

+1 this will be super useful. Also allowing drawing/annotation on inserted images will be great!

I'm not able to edit my op, but that should be a part of image editing and drawing as well

Good example how this is implemented we can see in MS OneNote app.

I switched from Evernote to apple notes for this feature. Would happily switch to dropbox paper for all my notekeeping  if I could do sketch notes with my iPad stylus.

Two years later we still dont have this feature. I just got an "active paper member" survey and gave them this feedback. They NEED to support stylus, and fix Timelines on touch devices, if they want a huge part of the market to use their app.

I just recieved an invite to use Paper.  I was excited until I realized I could not use with my iPad Pro and pencil.  I'd love to be able to stay in the dropbox environment, but without this, will need to stay with Goodnotes.   This is a fundamental expectation for this type of app in 2019.

Hi all, this idea has been delivered! 

In our latest update you should see a pencil icon which will allow you to draw in Paper on iPad (running iOS 13). Let us know if you have any questions about this.
 
Thanks for sharing your suggestion with us, we'd love to hear any more ideas you have!

Is it also coming to Android? or has it already? I can't seem to figure out drawing on Android device.

It's not delivered on Android.

Please update the status to "part - delivered" as us Android users will get forgotten about yet again.... so annoying....
