![]() Thanks to these advantages, Skitch Touch offers a better Modern experience than most apps I’ve seen so far, and should work especially well on a touch-enabled tablet screen. It’s also visual, which is a great quality for a Modern app to have. ![]() ![]() Skitch is a fundamentally simple tool, and it already offers mobile versions for iOS and Android, something that helps when designing a Modern app. Skitch’s simple annotation tools go well with the simple Modern visual aesthetic. Once you log into Evernote from Skitch, the main part of the window shows previous files, and you can easily click through to edit them. Saving files for editing later is another area where Skitch Touch could do better: Unless you log into your Evernote account using Skitch, you only have access your most recently edited file. To save your work as a Skitch document for editing later, click the checkmark on the top-right corner of the screen. This isn’t as convenient as being able to drag the image off the window to save it (a feature Skitch for Windows offers), but it works. When you’re ready to share your work with others, click the Export button, and you can save the image as a JPG or PNG file. As you launch it, Skitch Touch shows a beautiful Create New area on the left side of the screen, letting you create a pull in material to visually annotate from a camera (presumably a tablet’s built-in camera, but this feature also works with a regular webcam connected to a computer), a map, a photo or screenshot you’ve previously taken, an image saved into the clipboard, or a blank canvas. On a 24-inch monitor, it ends up displaying vast expanses of white, unused space. Like many other Modern apps, Skitch Touch seems to be designed for screen in the 11- to 13-inch range. It has the same simple and pretty annotation tools as the other versions, but being a Modern app, offers less power and features than the traditional Windows version. And somewhere between the mobile and desktop versions comes Skitch Touch, the version built for Windows 8’s Modern Interface. It comes in both Windows and Mac OS X editions, and mobile versions for iOS and Android are available, too. Evernote-owned free utility Skitch is a great way to annotate images and screenshots.
