Hello,

The new Canvas feature looks great. However, for our organization, there is a limited use case if there is not support for freeform drawing/writing, such as with a stylus on a tablet (similar to Apple's new aptly named Freeform app). Of course, the distinct advantage of Box is that our organization's data would be fully integrated.

I did just think to load up the web version of Canvas on my tablet to see if it would work with the stylus, but it simply seems not to; none of the stylus marks seem to register.

I was curious if there are any plans on the roadmap for tablet integration in the near future? Perhaps as a new app, or a new function in the existing Box app? If so, are there any time estimates on the horizon?

Thank you!
