Live Annotation Tools uses an overlay on top of all your other apps, so that you can annotate on anything and everything that you want!
Live Annotation Tools is packed full of customisability! Change your brush size easily, choose a custom color, set your own comfortable keybinds for your presentation needs!
Unlike PowerPoint’s default presenter view, Live Annotation Tools makes it very easy to change to your desired color or change brushes with a press of your keyboard!
After toggling Presenter mode to ON in Live Annotation Tools, screenshots of the current slide and annotations would be compiled each time you press the RIGHT ARROW KEY to go to the next slide in PowerPoint, while in Drawing Mode.
