Is the ruler tool available on the Adobe Fresco App? (iOS)

I've moved over from Adobe Sketch to Adobe Fresco since the prior is ceasing services on the 10th but I always used the ruler shape on the app for straight lines. Does anyone know if the ruler tool is available on the mobile app as I've seen it's a thing on Fresco but I've yet to see it in my taskbar.

    It looks like the ruler (as well as some of the other newer features) have not yet made it to Fresco on the iPhone. These are available on the iPad, as well as Windows versions.

    Fresco can do all the things Sketch and draw did just even better and has more features to offer. But if you are not happy with fresco you can install photoshop or illustrator on your iPad as well. Remember Adobe usually has a piece of software for all your needs.

    I have designed and created hundreds of logos for successful companies over the years through Adobe draw on my IPHONE. You can not do any of that on this new fresco thing. Once again Adobe are trying to fix things that are not broken, they had barely any complaints and just a few improvement suggestions. They have taken away many livelihoods and businesses away.

      I'm different. I never cared for Draw or Sketch.  They were missing a lot of features I needed...features that are available on Fresco.

      Unfortunately there isn't one for iPhone because adobe are silly people. They shut down the vector app adobe illustrator DRAW for an app that is pixelated with an express vector section that doesn't do half the thing the original one did. Adobe... if you see this... STOP FIXING THINGS THAT WERE NEVER BROKEN!

        Are others not freaking out also? It's so hard to find any straight answers on google. I had to go to this thread for the reality, no answer from adobe. What's up guys?! Why remove tools?!

          I am also freaking out about this. I used Adobe Draw religiously, and now I am left without a fundamental part of my creative routine.
