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

    If you are an independent user please support this initiative.

    This link will work for independent users but normally will not work for corporate users, access will depend on the settings provided by the administrator. This message is here just to support the idea to be able to add a text box to the snip &Sketch application.

    Go to uservoice and upvote this feature we all want. Here's a link:

    Love the Snip and Sketch option, but it really needs a text function. That would be an awesome addition to the program.

    To all of you who are planning to unsubscribe to this post, before you leave, please  post a feedback in Microsoft Feedback Hub so that our Microsoft has a second source to include this feature in their software. Thank you!

    Yes!  Please add this simple feature!  All of my Snip & Sketch notes look like a child drew all over them.  I would like to use this tool in a professional setting, but it's currently kind of embarrassing to share annotations created with this tool.  The annotation options available in the "Preview" tool on Apple devices is a nice example of the basic features that would be helpful to add to Snip & Sketch. I switched from Mac to Windows recently, but Snip & Sketch is annoying enough that it makes me want to switch back!
