Tips

Sketch

With ZeptoPad, you can smoothly expand or shrink entire worksheets or sections of worksheets as you draw.It might be a good idea to first minimize the worksheet so that you can sketch a quick outline. Then, expand particular areas as you see fit to create sections with higher levels of detail.

Draw a mindmap

First, select the TEXT iconand enter any particular keyword that comes to mind. After inputting the text, you can move it by dragging it with your finger or expand it by pinching two fingers apart. When you have created a certain number of keywords, draw a circle around each of them and then add lines to connect the circles together. By repeating this step several times, you will have completed your mind map.Create your mind map freely just as if you were writing in a paper notebook.

Think about basketball strategy

By utilizing the various text features offered by ZeptoPad skillfully, you can turn this application into a very powerful tool.For example, let's imagine you are thinking about the strategy used in a basketball game.With capital letter Os representing the players, you can formulate tactics by moving these symbols around as if they were magnets on a whiteboard. And, to make the diagram even easier to understand, you can assign teams different colors and create a ball using a lower case o.

Build the Tower of Hanoi

The classic game "The Tower of Hanoi" can also be created utilizing ZeptoPad's text features.While there are surely more practical ways to use the application, this is to give you a glimpse of the many things ZeptoPad is capable of. "The Tower of Hanoi" is a game where disks of varying sizes are stacked onto three towers.Thanks to ZeptoPad's movable text feature, strings of lower case 'o's connected together can be conveniently used for the game's disks. The object of the game is to move all the disks from the far left tower over to the far right tower.In attempting to accomplish this, the player may not, however, place a larger disk on top of a smaller disk.This presents you with a challenging puzzle which should take a considerable amount of time to solve. In this way, you can use ZeptoPad to create entertaining content. It's all up to you and your imagination.
