Earlier this week I wondered quietly on my Twitter if there was anything similar to Skitch for the iPad. Imagine, making drawings on top of images with an easy to use application ... Some contacts have suggestions, such as Autodesk Sketchbook Pro. But nothing comes easily in the Skitch we both know that in OS X. Well, this morning Rafa, another editor of the site, gave the good news: Skitch came out in an exclusive version for iPad!
The application's home screen shows the options for adding comments, arrows and related images. The user can open a photo already saved, open the camera and take a picture (sorry about the quality that only the camera offers the tablet), take screenshot of a web page or a map. Finally, a blank sheet is available - but to have this app Bamboo Paper.
Just do not feel that good, because it is a touchscreen device, it is easier to write text on the iPad. The challenges remain the same: you can not put very fine line, and usually features the cursive writing of the person lost. But you can venture capital letters, as I did in the screenshot above. Yes, left much to be desired.
The Skitch is smart and recognizes the elements added by the user in the image, allowing them move and edit the fill color of them. The editing tools are very basic, with trace free, oval, arrow, text, rectangle and line. Unlike Skitch on the Mac version, the iPad does not have a highlighter. A pity.
Edits made, the iPad Skitch allows you to share using the AirPlay to display on a television screen or monitor; send to Twitter taking advantage of the native integration between Twitter and iOS 5, send email, and save to Camera Roll. Not least, it also exports the image as a note of Evernote (the result of the acquisition by the company that develops Skitch Evernote).
I played a bit with the app and really enjoyed it. Simple, to the point and functional.
Tecnoblog As reported previously, the Skitch also has version for free on Android Market.
After that, I have no doubt that the young Americans of the future will give the pen to scribble pictures - to put teeth dirty and Horns - to make fun of your friends. Far more practical with iPad in hand. And then just send by email.
