FAQ

Can I use a stylus like the Apple Pencil?

Yes you can use a stylus to add your Scribbles (or just your finger). Please note that we don't currently support advanced features, like palm rejection.

Can I annotate slides and images?

Not yet. Right now you can only add your scribbles onto a blank canvas. Annotating slides will hopefully come in a future update.

Can I use Scribble when using Glean on my computer?

Yes you can. Check out this article for more details: https://help.glean.co/article/330-scribble
