Ability to draw on images in Box note or on .jpg, .png .gif files on mobile platform
Hello, it would be great if there was a feature that I could draw on a photo directly (especially on the mobile platform), and ALSO to be able to draw on a photo INSIDE Box Notes.
I can open a photo from Box on the desktop and it opens the photo in Paint and I can draw on it and save it back to Box, but I cannot do this on the mobile platform Box Edit Can't be used on mobile platforms :''( . I currently have to take a screenshot of the photo I want to edit, draw on it and upload the newly edited photo back to box (from a mobile platform). This makes it difficult to have strings of conversations about the photo since I have to upload a new photo every time I respond. Unfortunately, we do a huge amount of work on the go (aka mobile) so using the desktop features is not always available to us. We use the comment feature or Box notes to answer a string of Q&A between mentor and mentee.
I figured out how to insert a photo in Box notes, but there are a lot of steps to then take the existing photo inside box note, draw on that photo as a response and re-insert it into Box notes, and it seems this can only be done on the desktop, not mobile (at least Android). (Creating and Editing Box Notes ) If we could draw within Box Notes (mobile), it would save steps.
Attached is a sample of what I am trying to do (I took a screenshot and made all the edits, but too many steps to get it back into the Box note conversation ). It would be great if we could draw on things in a native Box (Mobile) environment.
