Notes app: mix text and drawings with Apple Pencil (like text boxes)

Hi there,

I have recently started using my Apple Pencil with the Notes app (I’ve been a heavy user of the notes app, only with text, for a long time).

I have discovered it is great to take hand-written notes, a bit like something in between PowerPoint slides and writing/organising thoughts by hand on a notebook.

Yet it seems to be an either/or feature: either write text in notes, as I used to do; or use the pencil to write and organise text by hand, as well as add forms and figures (PowerPoint style).

Can’t I mix the two, drawing and keyboard text?

It seems it is organised in sections: text section, then drawing section, etc. Not possible to overlay drawings on keyboard text.

Basically the ideal things would be to have a sort of text box feature, to insert keyboard text anywhere.

I dont think it exists and it should be introduced, in order to be able to really mix the 2.

I am aware of course of the Scribble feature, but that is not at all what I’m after.

Thank you for your help
