Squeeze or Double tap - palette tool using Apple Pencil

With a simple squeeze of your Apple Pencil Pro or a double tap on your Apple Pencil 2nd generation, Nebo's tools palette appears, offering quick access to essential tools. Effortlessly switch between commands like the lasso, eraser, or adjust the ink stroke thickness.

This intuitive feature keeps frequently used functions within reach, helping you stay focused and in your creative flow. Seamlessly transition from highlighting text to jotting notes in the margins, marking up a PDF, or using the lasso tool to reorganize a mind map. The new palette makes it all smooth and enhances your productivity and creativity.

Show the Palette with Squeeze or Double Tap

The Squeeze function on the Apple Pencil Pro detects pressure when pressed on its sides, while the Double Tap feature on the Apple Pencil 2nd generation activates with a double tap on its side.

This floating toolbar enhances your note-taking experience, allowing you to switch between tools like the pen and highlighter or adjust stroke thickness effortlessly, all while maintaining your creative flow.
