Stylus

TIER 1 — Large screen differentiated

Apps differentiated for large screen devices support drawing, writing, and erasing with a stylus. Users can drag and drop content within an app and between apps (in multi‑window mode) using a stylus. Apps support stylus input in note‑taking apps.

Differentiated apps support advanced stylus features, including:

• Low latency and motion prediction for real-time responsiveness
• Pressure sensitivity for variable-width strokes
• Tilt detection for shading
• Palm and finger rejection to handle inadvertent screen touches
