iOS 9 drawing on notes not showing up

Hey, I actually faced exact same problem but I managed to finally get the drawing tools when I deleted the Notes app and downloaded it once again off App Store, so you can try to see if that works for you as well. Hope this helps...

I believe you can only draw notes and use the extra features (bulleted lists, etc) on notes that exist in the "On my iPhone" / "On my iPad" folder within the Notes app (I could be mistaken but this is how I'm seeing it). To access and use notes "On my iPhone" / "On my iPad":

1. Open the Notes app

2. At the top of the screen, tap the back arrow

3. Find "On my iPhone" / "On my iPad" in the list

4. Tap on "Notes" under the "On my iPhone" / "On my iPad" heading

5. Tap on the new note icon at the bottom-right

You can now tap the round + button which will reveal the additional features

I don't know if the new features can be added to old notes that already exist on the device unless you move those notes to the "On my iPhone" / "On my iPad" notes folder. I also did NOT update whatever the Notes app was wanting to update when it was first opened immediately after the iOS 9 update (I now forget what that even was).

IT works on my iPhone but on the iPad the drawing icon doesn't even show up?

The

drawing tool is working on an iPad Air but not on iPhone 6 or an iPad Air 2.

upgraded both my iphone 6 and ipad mini 2 to ios9 and notes updated on both with the exception of on my ipad I cannot access the draw feature - the option isn't even visible. I can draw a note on my iphone and it shows up on my ipad but if I go to edit that same note on my ipad again still no drawing option...hope this gets fixed soon

Same problem. The drawing tool is present on my iPhone 5S but not on iPad mini 1.😕

... Yet Text enrichment functions are present on both.

Depends on what version of the iPad Mini you have. I have a first generation, and it is not present on that version.

Thank ! An iPad mini 1. But I did not find this information on Apple website !

I read it somewhere last night, just cannot remember exactly where it was. Maybe it was in the description of iOS 9 on the website, and then going to the bottom where all of the footnotes are about other things.

Not working on iPad 3 Retina either. Is this noted somewhere by Apple? None of multi-task features work either. Also, iPad 3 seemed to run slower. I downgraded Back to 8.4.1.

Please Goes to Notes App then you can find "' UPGRADE '' . click on it then you will able to draw

Not working on iPad3.

Performed Test:

Drawing done with iPhone5s and synced with iCloud. On iPad3 the fore mentioned drawing is shown as a picture and not editable.

Regards.

I had to go into settings on my iPad Mini 2, into the notes section, and then enable "On My iPad". After this I went back into Notes and the "On My iPad" folder showed up. Inside of this new folder I had all of the iOS 9 features for Notes.

Drawing does not work on my iPad 3. is this worked for anyone who has iPad 3?

I have just searched this and while it was loading, I tapped on the iCloud notes, rather than the other notes headings I have available. The little circle with the plus in it shows up in iCloud notes, but not the other ones. Don't know why it won't allow it in the other notes headings, but at least we can use it there...
