Copy and Paste feature not working in the app.

This app is amazing for note taking but I’m afraid the recent update may have messed up a very crucial feature. The copy and paste feature stopped working on “Pencil Only” on Touch Guard settings. Can you guys fix that?

Love!! Great for coloring and notes

I love this app. I haven’t used it too much yet but it’s wonderful for what I have used. The amount of options for writing utensils, handwriting into typed notes, color options like everything is so wonderful. Would fs download again

Idée d’amélioration

Quand on a un document pdf à annoter, j’aimerais qu’on puisse l’ajouter dans une note OrigNotes déjà existante pour avoir un seul document continu et prolongé. Sinon, super application!
