Draw anything (shapes, lines or add text) right on websites in real time and taking a screenshot!
Accustomed to reading books and highlighting important texts or just wanted to draw on any website in real time in the comfort of your browser? This simple extension will help you on it!
All tools as in MS Paint but only in your browser.
Paint Tool - is a simple to use free extension that allows you to create and save quick and fun drawings while using Chrome! It can also be used as a Full Page screenshot tool.
Features: Pencil tool, Text tool, Bucket fill tool, Line tool
I like this Chrome Extension for annotating websites or just whatever is on your screen. It's super simple after install, no logins, just click and go.
Be sure to PIN the extension to your Extensions list by clicking the puzzle piece and then the PIN next to the Paint Tool.
Don't Forget: You can use Kami as a "whiteboard" by creating a Kami with blank sheets (even choose different backgrounds)
