New: video signatures — pick or record a video, add hand-drawn signatures and wobble. Free to use in full; SigNote Video Pro (one-time) unlocks clean exports.
A sheet of paper, a pen, and two fingers — SigNote makes you a hand-drawn photo artist. Three easy steps!
Step 1 — Pick a photo as your "background."
Step 2 — Doodle on paper and snap it. SigNote removes the background and transfers your doodle as a "foreground."
Step 3 — With your fingers: scale, rotate, erase, recolor — and open the coloring editor to paint it by hand.
With SigNote, a photo with your own style is this easy!
—— New in this version ——
• New — video signatures: use a video from your library, or record one with the camera, as your "background," and lay hand-drawn signatures over it
• Boiling-line wobble: quick toggle plus a panel for amplitude and speed — your lines come alive
• High-quality video export: frame-by-frame compositing; save to Photos or share anywhere
• Quick line-color palette and dashed selection outline for more intuitive editing
• Edit in portrait or landscape: turn your phone sideways and the editor and camera rotate with it — your photo recenters and fills the screen, just like the built-in Photos app. Exports are always upright and complete, whether you shot in portrait or landscape
• Pinch to zoom and pan: magnify and move around your photo to align and fine-tune with ease
• Shoot in landscape too: capture backgrounds and paper doodles for cutout while holding your phone sideways — what you see is what you get
• Unlimited foreground transfers (the old version capped at 7 layers)
• New coloring editor: paint bucket plus colored-pencil / marker / charcoal / airbrush texture brushes
• Re-edit any foreground anytime: change line color, adjust overall opacity, erase to touch up
• Coloring and line art on separate layers — edit each independently; your edits persist across restarts
• Cutout core rewritten on Apple's native imaging pipeline — faster and more efficient
• High-resolution compositing, one-tap share to Photos or any app
• Privacy first: all editing on your device; your photos are never uploaded. No account, no ads, no tracking
—— About purchases ——
Free to download, unlock what you need — no subscriptions, no monthly fees:
• SigNote Pro — all filters, hi-res & batch export, premium artwork, photo exports without the SigNote logo
• Coloring Pack — the foreground coloring editor and all texture brushes
• SigNote Video Pro — clean video exports (the video features themselves are free to use in full)
If you bought the old paid app, SigNote Pro unlocks automatically after updating, at no charge (tap "Restore Purchases" if needed).
—— For long-time users ——
The old "SigNote Cloud" foreground library is evolving into the new "SigNote Plaza" community, coming in a future update. Your work saved on your device is unaffected.
Made in Taiwan, with care. Questions? signote.app@gmail.com.
Clever idea and the results look great.Only requests would be that once I choose an image from 'cloud' it would remember where I was when I went back or have a search or page numbers, or recent additions sorting.It would also be great if we could just draw in the app as an option.

This is one of the first photo apps I bought for my iPhone, years ago. This developer could have abandoned this thing years ago like so many others have along the way, but they haven’t. They always come out with an update when needed. I just wanted to give a shout out to the developers! You’re awesome! Looking forward to many more years of your app on my phone.
Still love this app!

Introducing video signatures! Everything you know — and everything you've purchased — stays the same, and the new video features are free to use in full.
• Video backgrounds: pick a video from your library, or record one right in the app
• Foregrounds over video: drag, scale and rotate your hand-drawn signatures and doodles, as always
• Boiling-line wobble: one tap to bring your lines alive, with adjustable amplitude and speed
• Quick line-color palette: switch colors in a tap
• Dashed selection outline: see at a glance which foreground is selected
• High-quality export: frame-by-frame compositing; save to Photos or share anywhere
Free video exports include a small tiled SigNote logo. "SigNote Video Pro" — a one-time purchase, no subscriptions — unlocks clean exports. Photo features and existing purchases are unaffected.
