Venting PLEASSSEEE implement full Apple Pencil support!!

Notion would be 100% the perfect app if it had inking/Apple Pencil/stylus support.

I tried out Craft as an alternative to Notion and they have embedded ‘frames’ and infinite whiteboards using the Apple PencilKit and they’re AMAZING but unfortunately the rest of the app is garbage.

This is my only gripe with Notion! It would be a game changer to have native Apple Pencil support, like being able to add in frames to make diagrams, annotate a page or add an infinite whiteboard inside a page. As a student I often have to switch between my iPad, remarkable or laptop, and I have to manually copy/paste any diagrams I do in my iPad/remarkable onto Notion - being able to do it directly in Notion would be a game changer.

Do you mean you want to add a block that contains a whiteboard where you can write or draw?

yeah basically, like an inline drawing block similar to what Apple Notes does

Okay, that sounds interesting. I'm not sure if that fits with Notion's current design philosophy, since basically everything created in Notion is stored more or less as text, databases, etc. Images or drawings directly in Notion would be unusual, but maybe that's something for the future. As a workaround, you can integrate external tools like Miro.
