FarPen: Draw on Screen

Draw, point, and explain without leaving the screen you’re using.
FarPen places a compact drawing toolbar over other Android apps, helping you mark up lessons, documents, presentations, videos, websites, and more.

DRAW WHERE YOU WORK
• Write or sketch over other apps
• Move the toolbar to any screen edge
• Hide your ink and bring it back without losing your work

TOOLS WITHIN REACH
• Choose colors and line thickness
• Add lines, arrows, rectangles, and circles
• Undo actions or clear the canvas
• Use Area Eraser for precise corrections
• Use Stroke Eraser to remove a complete stroke with one touch

PEN AND TOUCH
Use a compatible active stylus for pressure-aware strokes and supported tilt, hover, eraser-tip, and button controls. When a pen is not available, Finger Drawing lets you draw by touch.

MAKE IT YOURS
Choose light, dark, or automatic appearance and select from five carefully balanced color themes. FarPen also supports a broad range of interface languages.

PERMISSION TRANSPARENCY
FarPen needs Android’s “Display over other apps” access to place the drawing canvas above the screen you want to annotate. While the overlay is active, Android shows a foreground notification with a quick stop action.
Pen capabilities vary by device. Pressure, tilt, hover, and button controls are used only when Android reports that your device supports them. Passive capacitive pens behave like touch input and cannot provide hardware pressure or tilt.

Recent changes:
Samsung S Pen and tablet compatibility significantly enhanced. Pen calibration, onboarding screens, and launcher interface redesigned. Overall system performance improved for a much smoother, ultra-responsive drawing and annotation experience.
