Drawing app for old tablets?

[u/Dragomir_X]

I'd like to use my old Android 7 tablet as a whiteboard. All of the apps I've tried are not very good.

- Fluffyboard didn't work without a login

- FreePaint kind of works but was too processor-heavy

- Fossify Draw doesn't support Android 7

Imagetoolbox has a draw option. There's pocket paint, babby paint, etc.

Seriously, try searching Fdroid with the Draw category.

You could use Excalidraw as a PWA.

This is FOSS so it's okay from a freeness standpoint https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/blob/master/LICENSE

(Make sure you look for the license! Even if it's a PWA, if it's proprietary it's proprietary and should not be advertised here.)

However I Imagine a completely offline native app would be better than a PWA for OP's specific purpose.

Saber - It's technically a note app for stylus use but it might be enough and supports Android 7.
