Noteit Widget

Noteit is the simplest way to share a quick doodle with the one person who matters. Pick a friend, sketch something silly, hit send. Their home screen widget shows your drawing the second you tap Send. Open noteit at the same moment? Watch each other draw stroke-by-stroke, live. That's it. That's the whole app. WHY NOTEIT • One friend at a time. No groups, no feed, no followers. • Drawings live for 24 hours, then disappear forever. • A widget on their home screen — they don't even have to open noteit to see it. • Live mode when you're both online. Stroke-by-stroke, no delay. • Beautifully simple, deliberately small. HOW IT WORKS 1. Sign in with Apple. Pick a username. 2. Add one friend by their @noteit username. 3. Tap their card, draw, send. 4. They see it on their home screen. Magic. WHAT'S INSIDE • 8 colors and 3 brush sizes • Apple Pencil pressure sensitivity (iPad supported) • Undo, clear, redraw — until you're happy • Push notifications when a friend draws back • Small + medium home screen widgets • Light, fast, friendly to your battery WHO IT'S FOR Couples in a long-distance moment. Best friends mid-meeting. Siblings on different couches. Anyone who wants to say "hey, I'm thinking of you" without typing a word. PRIVACY FIRST Your drawings live for 24 hours, then they're gone — auto-deleted from our servers. We never sell your data, never sell ads to third parties about you, and never collect anything you didn't consent to. Apple Sign-In keeps your email private if you choose. Read our full policy in Settings → Privacy Policy. QUESTIONS? Settings → Contact. We read every message. Welcome to noteit. Now go draw something for someone.

What happened today. Something that made you smile. A quick little hello. Some things are hard to say in words, but easy to say in a drawing. Ink Log is an app for sending drawings back and forth with friends, partners, and family. How It Works Create a group with friends or your partner using an invite code. Draw and send whenever you like. Drawings you receive can be replayed as an animation of how they were drawn. A new prompt arrives every day, and once everyone has drawn, all the drawings are revealed at once. Key Features - Send drawings Draw whatever you like, whenever the mood strikes. Warmer than a sticker, easier than a text. - Home Screen widget Put the drawings you receive on your Home Screen and see them anytime. - Draw together in real time Everyone in the group can draw on the same canvas at the same time. You'll see each other's lines appear as they're drawn. - Daily prompt A new prompt arrives every day. Everyone draws and sends theirs, and once all the drawings are in, they're revealed together. Members take turns choosing the prompt each day. - Your drawing becomes music Every stroke you draw plays a sound. Enjoy your own drawings, and the ones you receive, as music. - Replay how it was drawn Watch any drawing you receive come to life again, stroke by stroke. - Special brushes & colors On top of the regular pen, you can use Neon, Marker, Dotted, and Rainbow brushes. - Reactions Respond to everyone's drawings with emoji. - Invite-only groups Use it with just the two of you, or with friends and family. Each group holds up to 8 people, and you can join up to 20 groups. - Save to Photos Save drawings as images, and the drawing process as videos, to your Photos app. - Works on iPad Draw freely on a bigger screen. FAQ Q. Can I use it even if I'm bad at drawing? A. Absolutely. It doesn't have to be good. Your drawing plays back stroke by stroke, just as you drew it, so what comes across is the effort and the feeling behind it, not your skill. Q. Will I be connected with strangers? A. No. There's no feature for meeting new people. You only share drawings with people you know, connected through invite codes. Q. Are my drawings public? A. No. Only members of the groups you joined with an invite code can see them. Q. Is it just for couples? A. Not at all. It's great for couples, and just as fun with friends and family. Q. Can I show drawings I receive on my Home Screen? A. Yes. With the widget, you can display the drawings you receive on your Home Screen. Q. Is it free? A. Yes. The basic features, like drawing, sending, viewing, and replaying, are free. --- Terms of Use: https://rootry.app/en/terms

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Noteit Widget at none against Ink Log's 3. Ink Log's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 6 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
