What is the biggest casualty of rapid computerization? Handwriting, of course. Think of it, when was the last time you wrote something? If you are 1 of those who longs to go back to the era of handwriting, this app called Carbo brings some hope.
Carbo will let you capture, edit, & organize your notes, design sketches, & whiteboard drawings, bringing handwriting into the digital age.You can, using the camera of your mobile computing device, take an image of any of your text – drawings, children’s school project, your office notes – & save it on the device at a fraction of the storage requirement of the original image.
Carbo organizes your notes chronologically as you import them. But Carbo also lets you tag & annotate them for easy retrieval. Notes saved are also fully editable in Carbo. You can:
- lasso-select any element which can then be moved, scaled, or removed
- make lines thicker or thinner
- or use the provided eraser tool
These editing tools all come with unlimited undo so you can change your “mistakes”. Besides, you can save all your images in the Cloud + they are also shareable, which means the rest of your team, too, can see & edit them.
As of now, Carbo is an iOS app, & there seem no immediate plans of introducing it on other mobile OS. To use this app, you need an iOS device running iOS 8 with back-facing camera, i.e. iPod touch 5th Generation, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPhone 5c, iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad 2, iPad 3, iPad 4, iPad Air, iPad Air 2 & iPad mini.
Carbo is available for US $3.99. The other advantage that you get while purchasing Carbo is you can install & use it on any supported device. So lets say, you have an iPhone 6 Plus & an iPad Air 2, you can use Carbo on both devices after purchasing it only once. You don’t need to purchase it twice – once for your iPhone & once for your iPad.
