DrawAnywhere

Floating canvas for drawing over other apps.
New in version 1.2
Clean up icon resources.
Implement adaptive launcher icon.
Add Quick Settings Tile toggle button. (Thanks @Noah12398 !)
DrawAnywhere lets you sketch, annotate, and highlight directly on top of any screen. Great for following along video courses, recording tutorials or hosting presentations.

Highlights:
  • Stroke eraser toggleable via stylus buttons

  • Touch passthrough to the app below

  • 50-step undo/redo operations

  • Minimal storage usage

Tips:
  • Long press and drag to move the toolbar around.

  • After 3 seconds of inactivity, the toolbar becomes more transparent.

  • Turn on Clear on hiding canvas to let the app clear the canvas when you hide it.

    Note: Touch passthrough will be turned off automatically as well.

  • Turn off Canvas visible on start to hide the canvas on startup by default.
