What is Penultimate?

Penultimate is a digital handwriting app designed specifically for the iPad and iPad Pro. It allows users to take notes, sketch ideas, or hand draw images using an Apple Pencil or their finger directly on the iPad screen.

The app is optimized to feel like writing with an actual pen and paper. Users can choose from a variety of different pen styles and ink colors to customize the look and feel of their handwriting. The app offers ruled, graph, blank, and dotted paper background templates to write on. There are also several paper textures and backgrounds to make the experience feel even more realistic.

Some key features of Penultimate include: pressure sensitivity that detects how hard you are pressing down to vary line thickness, the ability to organize notes into notebooks, options to import images into notes, and integration with Evernote for easy sharing and syncing across devices. The app also includes an eraser and customizable gestures for selecting, moving, and resizing elements on the page.

Overall, Penultimate aims to recreate the simplicity and natural feel of writing physical notes on paper, while taking advantage of the convenience, flexibility, and organizational abilities of digital note-taking. Its realistic interface and focus on handwriting makes it a great option for taking quick notes, sketching ideas, marking up PDFs, or annotating screenshots on an iPad.
