Adding Comments

How to highlight text and leave inline comments on a document.

Selecting Text

To comment on a specific part of the document, select the text you want to comment on:

  • On desktop: Click and drag to highlight the text
  • On mobile: Long-press and drag the selection handles to highlight text
A comment input will appear where you can type your feedback.

Writing Your Comment

Type your comment in the input field. Your comment will be anchored to the specific text you selected, so the author can see exactly what you're referring to.

  • On desktop: Press Enter to submit (Shift+Enter for a new line)
  • On mobile: Tap the send button (arrow icon) to submit

Viewing Comments

Tap the Comments tab in the bottom navigation to see all comments on the document. Each comment shows:

  • Who wrote it and when
  • The quoted text it refers to
  • Any replies in the thread

Replying to Comments

In the Comments panel, tap Reply on any comment to add a response. This keeps the conversation threaded and contextual.

Resolving Comments

Document owners can mark comments as Resolved when the feedback has been addressed. Resolved comments move to a collapsible section at the bottom of the comments list.
