Hi I had an App previously, that was just called Write for simple note taking, where you could take a picture, and make simple edits, like using a simulated marker to highlight.
I used it for the very simple task, of taking a picture of our shopping list, and then striking things I've purchased, which IMO can be very helpful when you have big shoppinglists, which we tend to have.😋
In principle the standard photo edit on my phone can do it, but it's not very good at it, because it's clumsy to resize and navigate the list.
Obviously I prefer an app that is free and without advertising.
Maybe others will find this helpful too?

Saber can do that, available in F-Droid

Thanks!!!
That is very nice, I can definitely use that. I can't see I can take the photo from within the app, which would be nice.
But it's just a tiny extra step, and does exactly what I want otherwise. 😀 👍
I had actually looked in f-droid quite thoroughly I thought, but it's very hard to find this functionality described for any of the note-taking apps.
