I can draw on a snip, but it is hard to write a note with a mouse.

Can I add a text box and  type a note on a snip?

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I understand that you want to add a text box to type a note on a snip using when using Snip & Sketch. However, I would like to inform that the feature to add a text box is currently not available.

I commend you for noticing this feature not being within Snip & Sketch. We would like to hear your thoughts and suggestions, as there may be other users with a similar requirement. Hence, I would suggest you to post a feedback in Microsoft Feedback Hub so that our developing team can review your suggestions and check if it can be included in the future updates.

Regards,

Nikhar Khare

    The fact that Microsoft cannot even put together a Feedback process that aggregates information from all of their feedback channels tells you how much they care: 0.  Feedback Hub is a joke. I use Microsoft products because I have to, not because I want to, and I cannot wait until the day this company's software division goes bankrupt because that's where they're heading.

    Case in point: A long time ago, I was writing feedback to Microsoft regarding their choice of having their new Action Center a flyout menu, and more specifically the 'Connect' option within it. One of the core essential features inherent in computers is the ability to multitask. On Windows 10, if you open Action Center -> Connect, you are presented with a flyout menu where you choose a wireless display or audio device to connect to. But Windows would not detect my device.   Since Action Center is a flyout menu, you cannot under any circumstances click on anything else (not even the Desktop), lest the flyout menu closes immediately. Troubleshooting quickly became nearly impossible without being able to do anything on the PC as I waited for Action Center to endlessly search for, and fail, to find my device.

    And here's the kicker: The Feedback Hub (at the time was a flyout). I essentially typed everyone like above, clicked away for a second, and lost everything... I haven't posted Feedback since.

    I just installed Snipaste also. This thing has all the missing features Snip & Sketch features, and way, way more. Haven't used it a whole lot yet, but so far it's world's better then Microsoft's pointless version.
