You can add a comment to express your thoughts about specific parts of your notes. This feature saves space and allows you to communicate with collaborators who work on the same document, or simply leave notes for yourself!

Example use cases include:

• Education: Teachers and students can comment on a math problem on a shared document.
• Self-study: Students who have a notebook full of notes might add comments to specific areas on the page, forming “collapsable” sticky notes.
• Collaboration: Interior designers can share their furniture selections on a shared floor plan, allowing clients to share thoughts on the furniture suggested on the page.

Add a comment thread

1. Long-press (or right-click in the desktop app) at a specific location on the page where you want to add a comment thread, and choose Add Comment.
2. Type a comment, and choose the Send (airplane) button. Further comments to a thread can be added this way.
