Download this great sketching app for free

We've long been fans of Paper by FiftyThree, one of the best iPad apps for sketching, doodling and notetaking, as well as Pencil, its accompanying Bluetooth Smart stylus. So we're excited to see that Paper has today launched on the iPhone too.

Named iPad App of the Year by Apple in 2013, Paper has been downloaded more than 15 million times. It's a great way to organise your thoughts, with ideas captured and stored like a wall of sticky notes that are easily arranged and connected to each other. (To learn more, read our review of the original release).

Today's launch of Paper on iPhone coincides with the release of a completely redesigned version of Paper for iPad.
