What is Shared Canvas?

Shared Canvas is an interactive drawing board that syncs in real-time between you and your partner. Every line you draw appears instantly on their screen, and vice versa. It's like a digital whiteboard just for the two of you.

Drawing Tools

  • Pencil - Free-form drawing with pressure sensitivity
  • Brush - Soft edges for artistic effects
  • Marker - Bold lines for emphasis
  • Eraser - Remove your strokes
  • Colors - Full color palette including custom colors
  • Line sizes - Thin to thick stroke options

Canvas Features

  • Real-time sync - Strokes appear instantly on both screens
  • Infinite canvas - Pan and zoom to expand your drawing space
  • Undo/redo - Fix mistakes easily
  • Save & share - Export drawings to camera roll
  • Canvas history - View and restore previous drawings

Ideas for Using Shared Canvas

  • Leave love notes - Write sweet messages for your partner to find
  • Play games - Tic-tac-toe, Pictionary, hangman
  • Plan together - Sketch travel plans or future dreams
  • Doodle dates - Draw together during video calls
  • Daily art - Create collaborative artwork over time

Technical Details

Drawing syncs via WebSocket connection with less than 100ms latency in most cases. If one partner goes offline, their strokes are saved locally and sync when they reconnect. The canvas supports up to 10,000 strokes before automatic archiving.

Privacy

Your shared canvas is completely private - only you and your Couple Mode partner can see it. Canvas data is encrypted and stored securely. You can clear the canvas at any time from Settings.
