Annoyed that better sketching tools are still missing from the scribe
This post is mostly just me venting.
Before getting the scribe I wasn’t too much of an artsy person. But somehow seeing the blank pages of the scribe notebooks makes me want to doodle and sketch stuff. Coming on this subreddit, I can see that I’m not the only one who wants to draw on the scribe.
Is it really that difficult for them to add more options like different shades of grey and layers to this device? The hardware is more than capable in my opinion. I was thinking of jailbreaking my device for this, but I can see it’s not really possible on the scribe, especially with the latest firmware updates.
Maybe I chose the wrong device for myself after all, motivated by hopes and dreams that they’ll just make it all better one day. It’s a great device for writing, but it turned out I want to do more than just write. Also, being able to write in different shades of grey would also be helpful.
