Now that Adobe has announced that its new iOS apps support Wacom pen technology, we feel that pen-on-screen writing or sketching develops into a normal part of being creative and bringing ideas to life in the digital age.' Already many of the most popular apps like SketchBook, ArtRage, Noteshelf, Notes Plus and Pixelmator support our products. Mike continues, 'At Wacom we take pride in the fact that nearly all major players in that business have already decided to have their apps support the Wacom pens. 'The more iOS apps that support our Bamboo Stylus fineline and the Intuos Creative Stylus 2, the better', Mike Gay, Global Head of Wacom Consumer Business, points out. Consequently Wacom does not only develop its own styli and native apps for the iPad, it also supports all interested software vendors with developer kits. The aim is always to provide the user with precision and a smooth experience in different surroundings. Similar to a pencil both pens react to the pressure applied with creating thicker or thinner lines.įor more than thirty years Wacom has developed digital pens and supports the idea of writing, sketching, drawing or painting on graphic tablets and interactive displays for a more creative life.

Both pens have been designed for writing and sketching on the iPad. It supports pressure-sensitive pens, palm rejection, short cut buttons and the recently launched smartpens Bamboo Stylus fineline and Intuos Creative Stylus 2. Wacom introduced its Bamboo Paper App for all major operating systems in July. Sales of tablets and smartphones continue to grow, as do apps and pens that allow for handwritten notes on digital devices.
