On iPad, Apple Pencil draws by default while one finger pans and zooms. Use Pencil double-tap to switch quickly between drawing and erasing.
Recording is available on Mac. Choose the destination before recording, configure microphone or camera, and stop when the lesson is complete. The MP4 exports automatically.
Export a board as PNG or PDF from Mac or iPad. Mac can also export recorded lessons as MP4. Watermarks used while working are not included in board exports.
Canvas Node keeps local safety copies while you work. Save important boards as source files and keep exported lessons in a backed-up folder.
Canvas Node Pro is a one-time App Store purchase. Apple handles payment and purchase restoration. Use Restore Purchases when reinstalling on a device signed into the same Apple Account.
Compatibility
The final minimum OS versions will be confirmed on the App Store product page before release.
Still need help?
Include your device model, macOS or iPadOS version, Canvas Node version and a short description of the issue. A screenshot or sample file is helpful, but never send private lesson content unless it is necessary.
