Explained: What is the new Freeform app for iPhone, Mac and what users can do with it

Apple has rolled out the iOS 16.2 and iPad 16.2 OS update. It is the second major software update since the launch of iOS 16. The latest iOS update brings the much-awaited 5G support for iPhone users in India. Along with this, it also adds various important features to the operating system and one such addition is the Freeform app.
The Freeform app for iPhone, iPad and Mac makes visual collaboration easier than ever.
What is the new Freeform app
Apple claims that the Freeform app will help users organise and visually lay out content on a flexible canvas, giving them the ability to see, share, and collaborate all in one place without worrying about layouts or page sizes. The app also enables users to add a wide range of files and also preview them inline without leaving the board.
Made for collaboration, the Freeform app also makes it simpler for users to invite others to work on board together. The app also allows users to collaborate with others even during a FaceTime call. The Freeform boards are then stored in iCloud, so users can stay in sync across devices.
What the Freeform app can do
Apple claims that the Freeform app offers a perfect whiteboard experience. The whiteboard on the Freeform app also supports gestures allowing users to move and work freely. The app also offers multiple brush styles and colour options.
The iPhone and iPad users can draw anywhere on the canvas with their finger, and with support for Apple Pencil, Freeform makes it easier than ever to sketch ideas on iPad while on the go.
Users are also allowed to drag and drop content onto the board from other apps including Files and Finder.
The app also offers a Quick Look functionality which enables users to preview content with a double tap without leaving the board. Content like images and PDFs can be locked into place on a board, and collaborators can then annotate on top of or around the object — making Freeform the perfect tool for sketching ideas.
The right collaboration tool for iPhone and iPad users
Freeform comes across the ideal tool for collaborating with others. With the ability to work with up to 100 collaborators in the same board, Freeform creates a shared space for creativity when working on group projects
Freeform takes advantage of the new collaboration features in Messages, which lets users invite others to a Freeform board by simply dragging it into a Messages thread. All members of that thread will be automatically invited to the boards and can begin collaborating immediately. When someone makes an edit, activity updates will show up at the top of the Messages thread.
