In supported apps, such as Notes and Photos, you can use the Markup tools to draw and sketch in your documents. You can also use the Markup tools to annotate screenshots, PDFs, and more.
In a supported app, tap (between the eraser and ruler) in the Markup toolbar, then do any of the following to select the content you want to change:
Select a word or drawn object: Double-tap it.
Select a sentence: Triple-tap it.
Select a paragraph or text block: Touch and hold the first word, then drag to the last word. To select more precisely, drag slowly.
In the Notes app, Markup recognizes handwritten text separately from drawn objects, so you can select handwriting alone. If you want to include drawings in your selection, you can drag over them, too.
Select multiple drawn objects: With the Lasso tool selected, draw around the objects with your finger or Apple Pencil, then tap the selection.
Note: If you don’t see the Markup toolbar, tap Fill out forms, sign documents, and create signatures on iPad
