Paper by FiftyThree has long been one of the most approachable sketching apps on iPad and iPhone, and version 4.0 is a major update that further enhances the experience. The makers of Paper are also launching a brand new app today called Paste. Available for both iPhone and iPad, this new app is built for teams and enables collaborative presentation building.
FiftyThree’s flagship sketching app has evolved into a full-blown digital notebook in recent versions, and Paper 4.0 improves the experience with optimizations for iPhone X, the latest iPad Pros, and Apple Pencil.
Paper 4.0 also introduces a new 3D journal concept for groups of notebooks, custom covers, and more. FiftyThree is also highlighting full support for Split View and all device orientations with the latest update which makes it more natural to use on iPads. Full release notes below:
