    You should add a feature to draw/write straight lines, round circles, arrows, etc. and not really exclusively on the stickers menu. It should be just like in Notes. It seems kind of inconsistent and it’s time consuming

    I like "Freeform" a lot but I miss auto-shapes and automatically straight lines, which almost every other drawing program including "Apple Notes" offers. For "Freeform" this feature would be absolutely essential and I can't understand at all why it wasn't implemented right away 🤷🏻‍♂

      @grouchyfluff Год назад

      every apple-produced marketing image of any product with a visible time indicator (excluding Apple Watch, and multi-device photos containing Watch) will say it is 9:41 AM, along with variable and relevant dates.
      This harkens back to the original iPhone keynote, when Steve Jobs finally revealed the iPhone around 41 minutes into the 9AM presentation that january morning.
      As far as Apple Watch is concerned, I think i read that the timepiece industry standard for time displayed on product marketing is a very symmetrical 10:09 (and 30 seconds). Thus, this is the time shown on every Apple Watch image, and if there are other devices like iPhone or iPad shown together with Apple Watch, they will all say 10:09.
      Take a quick glance on their website and you'll soon see the same times everywhere. I have a hard time un-seeing this on every picture now haha.

    I feel like Freeform is good, but it’s only about 80% of the way there.
    *The tool palettes are a bit clunky compared to Flow and GoodNotes.
    *Easier access to frequently used color palettes without multiple clicks is essential.
    *The image paste from ‘copy image’ in safari works great, better than any of the other apps.
    *The infinite board is great.
    *Export doesn’t work from the icon one would expect.
    *The solid white or white bullet journal style background is a little harsh on the eyes.
    *Alignment is fantastic.
    *Lasso needs to be able to grab more than just drawn items.
    *Lasso requiring 100% of the item to be grabbed is spot on.
    Like I say, 80% there, but a really good first version. I like it, but I want to love it.

    Sadly it needs a lot of improvements to even compete with competitor apps, at the very least, it needs the ability to convert drawn shapes and lines into actual shapes, converting hand written text in to normal text, changing the background into lines (math lines, normal lines etc,) and an ability to display and share the board online with a link that can be opened on a browser, for now, this is just a simplified notes app, which is already a simplified app, anyway, I’ll stick to notes for simple scribbling and to OneNote for actual work until Apple gives me a better option

    I had a serious problem with Freeform. Was excited at the prospect of its capabilities, but unfortunately it stopped syncing, and after several hours on the phone with several members of Apple support, making changing various settings I lost 90% of my data. I was told that Apple's 'Creative Services' department are the ultimate support for Freeform, and whilst one of the guys I worked with appeared very helpful, they have so far been unable to resolve the situation. Needless to say I lost hours of work. It appears to me that the app may have been launched without having the appropriate support people in place?
