That’s my issue with the Microsoft surface stylus work- and a lesser extent Apple. They don’t compare to written, and a decent amount is the pen tip friction.

That’s my issue with the Microsoft surface stylus work- and a lesser extent Apple.

Wacom comes close.
However the apps themselves ?
I’d like to use one note more, but PDFs don’t become copy-able text. Searchable but not copyable.
Writing on a surface device is ugh. And I had really high hopes that they would push on the tech.
Procreate -iOS- has the best redo and undo features and gestures - which may as well be a lost art since no one else seems to be copying them and saving us manhours of annoyance.
- claudeganon 6y agoThey make screen films to recreate this friction on the iPad Pro. A lot of my artists friends use them: https://paperlike.com/ https://paperlike.com/
- bosie 6y agoAnother endorsement for paperlike. The latest version is even better. And it’s much smoother and you don’t lose as much sharpness of the screen
- dopu 6y agoHaven't used paperlike, but I use a much cheaper matte protector from TechArmor for drawing / taking notes on my iPad Pro and it's great. Would definitely recommend getting something like it. Bare screen's always felt too 'slippery' for me.
- amelius 6y agoI always get bubbles under my screen protectors. And I don't use Apple. Not for me, I guess.
- intended 6y agoThanks ! I’ll look into it. Now if only the surface writing experience were comparable - I like one note 2016 more than the one on the iPad. God cmon MSFT, make this stuff just work. During one of the surface launch events, a presenter said her entire life was on one note. I can see that happen. But I can only see it, I can’t believe it will happen until the input modalities feel much better.
- mbreese 6y agoI also use Paperlike. The version 2 of their film is really nice. It feels so much better drawing on that than the smooth glass surface. And I have no issues watching video through the film at all — it’s still bright and clear.
