On a regular basis, Apple World Today posts a list of notable new apps or app updates that have been released. They may not necessarily be new, but they’re popular and deserve mention. Here are today’s picks.
iOS Apps/Updates
Qrayon has introduced Noteflow 1.0, a new digital notebook app that’s designed to replace pen and paper. You can use it for taking notes, annotating PDFs, sketching and visual thinking, plus a whole lot more. Noteflow natively integrates with iOS 11’s file system and drag ’n drop capabilities. You drop photos and text into the app, and drag your drawings into other apps.
