Super useful and a great price. Added to my Login Items and remapped some of the extra modifier keys on my Keychron Q11 for even easier access to Draw/HUD. Perhaps one nice-to-have would be an indicator that 'Draw' is active so I know what my next click is going to do (maybe the menu icon changes?). Thank you!
I really like the homepage. It’s clear what the product does just after a few seconds and looks nice and smooth :)
I’m curious if the annotation handles things like scrolling within a webpage. That would be a really cool feature if annotations automatically moved with the scroll.
Thank you for the feedback! At the moment it's not scroll-aware, but it's an excellent idea, thank you.
I won't be able to make it app-aware, given the very rigid security posture (complete sandbox), but I may be able to make it scroll-aware, so at least within the same window it'd move relative to the 'global' position. I'll look into it :)
The letters keep drawing after the mouse pointer stops moving. Is there such thing as an autocompleting typeface that recognizes handwriting from a Wacom tablet or something to explain this? If not, this demo doesn't seem authentic and that doesn't inspire confidence.
I think you should indicate this above or below the demo in a smallish typeface. Your explanation makes sense, but the presentation comes off as sketchy without that info. Maybe it's just me. Thanks for responding.
I am very excited to try Draw Over It—thank you for sharing. I speak at several conferences a year, and also do online workshops and training, and Presentify has been a godsend.
However, the one limitation is if you toggle it, you lose your annotations. And you can't do anything with the underlying app—can't scroll or click buttons. Looking forward to trying this out.
Thank you for your kind words! Indeed, I wanted the sketch to remain on-screen after disabling it too - in Draw Over It you can toggle whether you want it to remain on-screen or not :)
i'd love this for the iPad, i'd buy it right away but didnt see it for the iPad -- mostly because writing with a mouse is very difficult, but pens are easy
And I'd love to make it for iPads too, just struggling to find the optimal UX for enabling and disabling the overlay.
On macOS you can just use the global hotkey or the app menu, on iPad I'd have to wire it up somehow else - supper happy to get ideas on what would feel seamless and unobtrusive for you. I'll definitely implement it then!
What about a control center toggle? Works alright for toggling the windowing system. In general having shortcuts to set it on/off/toggle would be great.
Thank you! I'd love to know about your experience using it. If you have any questions, comments, feature ideas, feel free to reach out via the support email :)

I tried to strike a balance, original videos felt a bit too distracting with unfiltered cursor movements.
