Describe your feature request!

On the Google Pixel Tablet you can use a pen or stylus to insert text in a pretty easy way. The recognition of the handwriting works great. This may be true for other tablets too.
It would be really nice to use feature inside butterfly. Unfortunately the pen could just be used to place a label but not to write text.

Hi,
How do you mean recognition? Is this a native feature in the keyboard?
Butterfly opens the native keyboard if you use the label tool and click on the position where you want to add it

Hi,
I don't know how this exactly works. It might be, that the handwriting recognition is handled like a keyboard by the system. In most apps I can write anywhere on the screen and the app will take this as an input at the position of the cursor.
It's shortly shown in this video (yt). But that's not the exact feature, since he has to write in a specific area.

I think that's what you mean

Yes, exactly. But in most apps you even don't have to write in the URL field, which makes the usage a lot more comfortably.
