You can also assign any of the paragraph or character styles that are defined in the document to a selected piece of text.

Wireframingīy far my favorite part of design work on an iPad. Not to mention mixing touch with writing and drawing (Apple Pencil) is a delight that I think is tough to find in products. Working on the couch or outside or at a coffee shop with a smaller form factor is great. I’ve used this method on countless projects as I really enjoy the mobile aspect of an iPad versus a laptop. Throw my Apple Pencil into the mix for drawing extras on notes and I’m set for getting my notes complete and organized.

This lets me seamlessly mix documentation with my own thoughts and findings. The side-by-side apps lets me enlarge and shrink windows as I need and even lets me drag and drop both text and media from my browser on to my Notes. You can of course switch these out for whichever replacements you’d like (Google Docs, Dropbox Paper, etc).

My setup consists of a Chrome browser open on the left of my screen and default Apple Notes on the right.
