I installed the Fibery app on my iPad, hoping to use the Apple Pencil to leave notes or annotate existing whiteboards. When I try to open a whiteboard on the iPad, the toolset doesn’t appear. It doesn’t show the toolset, so we can’t edit the whiteboard on the iPad.

This was on an iPad Air M3, running the latest version of the Fibery app.

Hi, I tried ipad app on my personal iPad Pro m1 and it worked for me.

Do you have the issue when app in the full screen mode (no slide over, not a windowed app, no stage manager etc)?

I just tried it again, and it still doesn’t show the tools.

It is full screen when testing but the iPad is setup for window mode.

Have you opened this whiteboard when app was in full screen or put the app into full screen when whiteboard was already opened in smaller sized window?
