Hi guys,

I have just installed iOS 9 Public beta 1 on my iPhone 4S and in the new Notes app there is no 'Sketch' button, I can only see List, Formatting and Photos and NO Sketchs - is there something I am missing?

Cheers,

Srini

If a feature is not supported by the hardware, then it won't appear.
I suspect that the 4S does not support sketch because there's no coprocessor.

You don't see what? Why do you comment over things you don't even know?

Sorry pal, but the iPhone 4s doesn't get this feature. No A5 device does...Or at least not yet.
 
Apple didn't omit the feature for no valid reason. The 4S simply doesn't provide the processor power that feature needs.
MOST features are there. iOS9 is provided, when it is surprising that Apple decided to extend iOS 9 to the 4s at all.
It's nearly 4 years since first release - ancient for mobile tech :D

Id like to agree but there are more fully featured drawing apps on the AppStore.
