I put numbers table in notes and had no end of malfunctions. I put a LOT of RUclips screenshots in Freeform and had no end of malfunctions. Just because they can, doesnt mean they can do it well
My Freeform doesn’t seem to have the new features and it’s up to date. Any thoughts? I don’t have the watercolor feature or anything. I’m running the M1 IPad Pro.
Hi, Chris. Did you notice that the eraser keep going back to its default setting? I changed the eraser to be an object eraser, but it keeps going back to "pixel eraser" after several minutes. So annoying.
I need a suggestion. I am so into something that absolutely makes me use freeform and notes but I use my wife's iPad Pro 11. I want to have my own and I can not decide which one to buy. I like the small form factor of iPad Mini but I am not sure if I will regret later buying it over iPad Pro 11.
Another great video, Chris thanks. One piece of functionality that I would like to see in the future is the ability to click on one of the linking arrows and write something so I could do something like box a helps produce box B. This would make developing concept, maps or system dynamic diagrams, maps much more easy.
🎉🎉 Thanks to your video, I understand the connector button on/off 😂😂. Bravo for your videos, we want more tips. Hope in Notes we will have font and color, and maybe Apple can add font default in freeform smart selection
I find it annoying, that you can not save default settings for sizes on post-its, text inside them etc. copying style is still more steps than having a default. Also i find that the pencil/drawing settings reset when Freeform has been closed/restarted. Also it would be great to have more text options, like choosing title, header etc. as in pages for "writing writing" Looking forward to try the new smart arrow change
Great information. I learned about removing the constrain proprotion. Yesterday I dropped a PDF in freeform but didn't know how to see the whole thing. I tried your tip and it worked perfectly.
Did you glitch in this video my dude? …Does that make you a lizard? …Show us a closeup of your eyes in your next vid…. or the dog GETS IT! All jokes (though you totally glitched) Superb video as always!
Chris - I know it’s simple but can help with customizing your/my/our pictures for stickers? While it’s easy to select but how do I get a perfect circle around it?
Chris, love the glitches around the 14.15 mark....as a complete, beginner Gumby creator that stumbles a million times trying to say a sentence it is awesome to see a seasoned pro doing it too....love the channel by the way, never miss an upload, appreciate all you do 🇺🇸🇦🇺 ✌🏻
does freeform has options to line text with arrows, so each time you change elements with attached arrows, you don't need to replace all text after it?
I’m using Freeform on IPad M4 and I can no longer draw a line from dot to dot on the background. I used to be able to draw a line from one dot to another and Freeform would automatically draw a straight line from each dot it doesn’t do it anymore. It’s certainly not connector lines either as I’ve tried that already
freeform does everything, but I think it lacks folder. If freeform has a folder we could organise every concept that we make in freeform. In my case as a student I have many subject and when I study simultaneously I had difficulty finding the subject I want to study since there are no folders that would indicate a particular subject which freeform lacks.
Man i wanna love freeform so bad but its so crazy buggy i just cant rely on it. It doesnt sync my boards correctly, still :( i tried sending a whole treatment to a client using free form and it came in on there end as a jumbled mess, it kinda made me look bad lol ill stick to milanote and others until they get it sorted
Paperlike... great while it works, which in my experience is a few weeks of moderate use. Then it just feels like the regular screen again - so that's a lot of money for something that lasts not very long at all IMO. Anyway, thanks for the video - I was wondering what Freeform is about and now I know! I will get to work using it for research and learning new topics :)
Why I cannot export a freeform document as pdf just clicking the share button within the form. To do this, I need to go to to all board then choose the form that I want to export as pdf and click the share button. Not user friendly at all.
Hey bro I need some help. The freeform app heats up my ipad pro m1, in the normal and beta os. It heats and then starts to lag. I haven't used a big board or images. I am using it to practice system design examples. Can't find any solution.
Can you tell me how to take a screen shot since the update things changed, I have long natural nails. What program will allow me to write a note and send it to a friend, besides email? I’m going through cancer, too fatigued to search for answers. Chris I love your videos
Hi there, I'm a fan of your channel for a very long time and I kinda wanna start a channel as a side hustle about videogame plays, travel and food reviews so yea. Any suggestions, recommendations and tips about some cheap ways for youtube thumbnail creations, music additives effects, voice over and all those good stuffs will very much appreciated. Link or mention ipad apps or Mac/PC softwares are very welcome. Thanks and all the best...
You use samsung tablets ? Chrome browser doesn't have bookmark and other features in ipad? Which one have more battery life and pdf writing better zoom in pen quality?
Can anybody tell me why my boards get so zoomed out (for lack of a better term)? I have to put my font in text elements to 144 just to read it. And the magnification to see the whole board is about 17% - and I only have three or four elements on the board.
If I create a toggle switch which consists of a rectangle a square and perhaps on/off text… it would be nice to be able to save it as a template shape which can be reused and editing it will reflect on all already added ones on the canvas
you guys all have the second screen big size, making much of what you say in terms of multitasking someowhat irrelevant to those of us stuck with mac or pad
I like freeform but keeping 100% it's not anywhere as good as Miro. Miro is still better in every way. It does everything you just mention for the past few years and much more. Would love to see a comparison. ❤❤❤
where do you find this app? i like freeform but cannot use it because it lacks the ability to do the basics of functioning. (if i write on my ipad 9/10 times its not transferring over to my mac/iphone, certain strokes or phrases complete fail at being transferred so i decided to move on from freeform after my first exam)
The missing part of Freeform is the integration with other native Apple’s apps. It could be nice to have a full integration with Numbers for example.
I put numbers table in notes and had no end of malfunctions. I put a LOT of RUclips screenshots in Freeform and had no end of malfunctions. Just because they can, doesnt mean they can do it well
My Freeform doesn’t seem to have the new features and it’s up to date. Any thoughts? I don’t have the watercolor feature or anything. I’m running the M1 IPad Pro.
same, i don't see Highlither or the calligraphy pen or watercolor brush.
Try swiping (scrolling) the tools to see the new ones.
@@TomWGiles thank you for this. I feel stupid for not thinking of this but I did not think of this. Sigh. Found it! lol thank you again
I did@@TomWGiles nothing is there lol
Have you updated to iPadOS 17?

I love this video but I just can’t get my head around how I would use this app!
I’m experiencing some inconsistencies on how board render on iPad app and macOS app. It seems like some brushes render differently.
Goes by pretty fast
Can we copy and paste shapes and other design elements between FreeForm and Apple Numbers, Pages and Keynote while keeping those elements editable?
Dark mode , why can’t it have dark mode ??????
I don’t know 🤷🏻♀️

Can backround dots be set on exact distance - 1cm?
In the first couple mins i learned that you can swipe on the drawing tools in the bar to access other writing tools. Thank you for that

How do I add the white border to my stickers?

came here to mention this lol
was this on purpose?
Are you talking about is hand twitching before it touches the screen??
No, his voice over is glitchy, it's cool, authentic@@Iceyfire12
What about dotted lines
does freeform has options to line text with arrows, so each time you change elements with attached arrows, you don't need to replace all text after it?

Watercolor brush isn’t working for me on iPad air 4th gen. Tried with different colors but its not working. Anyone else faced this issue?
Love this helpful summary. Thanks!

How you can rotate images or forms?? Please Tell me 😢
CHRIS 💪 , hope you’re well man! 😎
Finally made the snap shapes! Still kinda annoyed that you can’t write on Post-its but I group them after.
Hmm I think you can
The only thing stopping me from going iPad only is the need for Chrome browser with extensions. Any ideas if there is a solution to this?
You use samsung tablets ? Chrome browser doesn't have bookmark and other features in ipad? Which one have more battery life and pdf writing better zoom in pen quality?
Can anybody tell me why my boards get so zoomed out (for lack of a better term)? I have to put my font in text elements to 144 just to read it. And the magnification to see the whole board is about 17% - and I only have three or four elements on the board.
Love your videos man, keep them coming!
Great video as usual.
My Freeform boards are full of little drawings and just me playing with it, but it definitely works best on iPad.
Where's the coupon code for your courses? The link above doesn't say. Thanks!
How did you get the white border at 5:50?
Shared this RUclips video to a FreeForm board. Not able to watch the video directly on the board like we can on a note in Apple Notes.
If I create a toggle switch which consists of a rectangle a square and perhaps on/off text… it would be nice to be able to save it as a template shape which can be reused and editing it will reflect on all already added ones on the canvas
I can't get this app to stop making straight-line errors when using the apple pencil.
How do you get shape recognition to work? My iOS is updated
what a great and helpful vid and very well presented may I say!! 👏🏽✨
Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed your topic. Blessings on your day.
Great video. Does anyone know how do I activate the perfect shape?
Is the board limitless? I always see an end to Canvas.
Inspiring! - Congratulation!
Never apologize for dad jokes
Loved your dad jokes so much.
Paperlike ad...yawn..
Awesome videos sorry im so late
Great video! Really loved the Dad jokes 😂
Thank you
Great video. 👌
Very useful tips! Great video!
great work! thank you!
