Developers Behind "Paper" Sketching App Upset Facebook Working on Reader App Called "Paper"
Guys, paper could mean almost anything
The developers behind popular sketching app Paper have criticised Facebook for launching an app of the same name instead of "building a brand name of their own" and demanded that it be changed.
FiftyThree's free sketching app was named in Apple's Best of 2012 list as a "phenomenal app [that] set a new standard with its clean design and thoughtful implementation". It allows users to jot down ideas and make quick sketches on the iPad using their finger or a stylus and then share those images across a number of social networks.
