Hello! We’re excited to let you know that we’ve updated the Text tool and introduced a new dedicated floating menu for text boxes, including more customization options.
One of the new tools is Pin Text Tool — when enabled, it keeps the Text tool active so you can create multiple text boxes continuously without having to reselect it each time.
This is especially helpful when you're focused on adding or adjusting text in your notes. The pin will automatically turn off once you switch to another tool.
Feel free to try it out and let us know how it works for you!
This improvement is available in the latest Apple update.

I say this as a UX + Product Design consultant for the last 30 years of my life: The new toolbar is absolutely TERRIBLE. You redesigned something simply for the sake of redesigning it. Redesigns should only happen when doing so makes something markedly BETTER. This does not.
Every single thing I do takes 3X the effort — LITERALLY — simply to change the pen colors for the diagramming work I do. I now have to hit a subcategory icon (shapes, which makes no sense visually) every time I have to change color — which happens 6-8 times per MINUTE.
I cannot believe you have overcomplicated something that was so incredibly simple and effortless. And was the reason I gave you my money in the first place.
Literally looking for another app to use. As grandiose as this may sound, you have truly *destroyed* my productivity with this ridiculous change.
