  • More control needed

    It would be nice for teachers to control the panel of tools for students to use when shared. Also it would be good to lock text boxes or objects/pictures. I figured to save images an insert them as background image, (often used as questions or directions)but that takes time, just create a lock option. Like in Smartnotebook.

  • Reduce latency

    Would be great to have strokes synced as they are drawn
  • Ok

    I would move this rating up to five if it didn’t kick me out so often and we have like 20 pages in our presentation and every time it kicks us out we have to keep pushing the arrow at the top I think it should take you to the page where you last edited
  • Great distance learning experience

    All my kids said it was really fun and that it was easy to work with. Personally, I agree there were some glitches but overall it was really good.
  • History needed

    As a teacher I like to use this to interact with students virtually. I run into the occasional problem of a student deleting someone else’s work or using the pen tool to randomly start drawing. Because there is no history of who is doing what, it can really throw a wrench into an activity. Another idea would be to have a way to lock the board so no one could add delete or move information/objects until the creator unlocked it.

  • Nice

    It is very nice
  • App vs website

    If you have to use this app or website, USE THE APP! The website is super slow and laggy while the app is MUCH smoother. I do wish that the app had more fonts and other tools. There are some cool tools to use. I would recommend this app for anyone working in a group.
  • Hard to work with and too much missing

    So I’ve had some problems with this app. This is possibly one of the hardest app for me to work with. I downloaded this for a school project, which was a simple one, just to make arrays to show multiplication equations. Something you should add is a shape tool, or a chart tool, because I know many people who’ve had to use this for that purpose. Also there is no line tool, so it was hard to draw straight lines. There was also many glitches when drawing and the undo/redo button. When I would draw or use the undo and redo button, most of the time it would undo a line I was happy with, or add a random line in the middle of the board. At first I thought my arm was on the screen, but then when I tried while having my arm off the screen, I still had these problems. It would be a great app if you fix the actual mechanics of it.

  • It’s ok

    Not the best use something better
  • Can’t really do much

    I can’t really do much in the app compared to other google services. For example I needed some notes from this app so I could print them off but I literally couldn’t find a print option and when I tried to do it from a chrome book it only aloud me to save it as a pdf rather than actually printing the documents. So if I’m the future if the developers could fix this issue it would be very much appreciated :)
