IOS9 is coming! and what's in it for Writers

IOS 9 Beta version is already available, and I recently downloaded and upgraded my OS because I have read some pretty good reviews about it.  
On day 2 of my trial, I have some awesome news for us writers:  Notes has been upgraded!
Yes, Notes is no longer the old notepad that only accepted type case ramblings.  It now has a scribble option wherein one can use the fingers to jot down notes.  There are several writing options available namely, pen, highlighter, and pencil; and all these can be in any of the eight colors provided by the application.

A ruler is also offered as a tool, which one can twist around and use as guide to ensure those letters are aligned.  
For those who prefer to write notes using the keyboard, here are some pretty cool items too:

  1. There's a radio button now that can be added and ticked on and off.  This is especially useful when coming up with a checklist.
  2. There's a selection for actions that can be made to the text, whether to make a numbered list, bulleted list, etc.

Photos and videos can also be embedded on the note.
Anyway, I think that for Mac and iPad users, it will be better to have the actual hands-on on the features.  For those interested, here's the link.
Share the good news with fellow writers!
