  • User limit of 25!

    Who decided that a user limit of 25 was a good idea. I work in a large public school, some of our courses have 31 or more students enrolled. So instead of using this great app for kids to work collaboratively and be visible and accountable for their learning, now we have to share…why bother! If they have to share I will just go back to paper which never runs out of wifi or battery.

  • Needs work

    It can take a good five minutes just to load a previous jamboard. It's good when you are sharing with other people, and they need to see it, or if they want to add to it, but it can take FOREVER to load a jamboard. And sometimes I need to jump between a few of them. So, it can take a good 10 or so minutes just to get the info I need.

    Not to mention that sometimes, you'll come across a page that was previously written on, and it's bugged out. Like, it'll be pixelated, or sometimes it's all moved around in a weird way. And the whole jamboard does crash, once in a while causing loss of data.

    I hope they improve this. It's quite a lot sometimes when I'm trying to dig up info I need from previous jamboards.

  • The best collaborative whiteboarding I've ever used

    Absolutely wonderful. Best remote collaborative mind storming tool I have ever used. Using it on iPad with Apple pencil. Amazing for diagrams with or without text. Assisted drawing is the best feature ever made. Yes, there are some bugs but I was able to overcome those by simply refreshing.
  • I wonder…

    I like this and it works but the thing I wonder is why do a lot of iPhone users say it won’t work for them? I myself am an iPhone user and yet I haven’t had any issues.
  • Lack of functionality, riddled with bugs

    So first off, I’ve never had an app crash on me so many times in one sitting. I was connected to cellular data (in Japan, this is never an issue) and the app would just suddenly have an “unexpected” error and just close out. The lack of auto-saving after any edits are made like the Microsoft office products meant I was continuously doing the same thing over and over.
    There is literally no control over font or formatting for anything typed.
    The sticky notes repetitively add ? marks when you hit enter to start a new paragraph or when trying to make lists.
    The delete and net page function makes it extremely difficult to make a layout that uses the full screen.
    Using a stylus/pen on a tablet for writing is okay at best until you use the “write to type” function.
    It’s a cool idea, just EXTREMELY executed in all the worst ways.

  • 👎

    It has the potential to be a great app for notes. It’s almost everything I need. However, sometimes it just fails and I need to restart the app multiple times. Also, sometimes it has bugs that ruin my notes since it stacks my notes or puts weird lines that mess up the organization of my notes. Disappointed because there is great potential.

  • Mia.C’s opinion

    I love jamboard but I would prefer it if there would be more colours on post it notes and the pens.
  • Too Buggy

    Using the app in chem lecture with about 100 students. App glitches and closes out on me almost every lecture. Any time I tap the button to access the multi-slide view, the app closes, even when I’m using it outside of class.
