Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

Simple no frills app for notes, use your finger as pen and your phone as paper. This app is designed to be very simple and easy to use, just start it up and use your finger to hand-write on the screen. It works just like pencil and notebook. No settings, one size fits all. Use < and > to turn the pages. Use the pen toggle button to switch between pen and eraser. Saving is automatic as you write. The saved pages are very small, in png format, and can be easily shared. Use this app if you want a small, simple app to quickly jot things down in handwriting. Don't use it if you want to type or change the colour, pen, background, etc. Available functions are: - write/draw (using finger, handwriting) - eraser (also using finger) - previous/next page - undo/redo - delete/clear page - add page (not needed at the end where new pages are added automatically) - go to first/last page - share (using your preferred application, eg email/WhatsApp/etc) For support or feedback email: [email protected]
