After brainstorming, I generally have an idea of what to put on an Android artboard in Adobe XD. But sometimes I forget some of the elements after a few minutes. To solve this problem, I want to be able to quickly just drawn a rough freehand sketch on the artboard of the final result with the elements that I had in mind. This would help me keep a reference of all the elements during the design process. Is this possible with a plugin or something? Thanks.

Hi, I'm sorry but at the moment there is no way to draw on Adobe XD. What I can advise you is to use pen and paper, two foolproof tools 🙂

Now that teams are remote (covid), being able to hand draw and sketch collaboratively, not just on pen and paper, is key. We can do this in Miro then paste into XD to create fast versions of paper prototypes - but why not just let us hand sketch in XD directly?
