### 1/5 — Crashes in 2024

*2024-07-19*

Sadly, one of the schools where I teach uses the Promethean screens and this app no longer works on a modern iOS device

### 1/5 — Fand nich so gut

### 2/5 — Loses connection

*2019-12-09*

This app used to work well but now it loses the connection constantly. When I try to reconnect, it fails. I have to delete the saved connection and then rescan the bar code, and then it connects. I have to do this repeatedly each day for all of my classes.

### 1/5 — Keine Verbindung

*2019-10-18*

Neues iPhone zu neuestem Activeboard nicht connectable...keine Hilfe in der App

### 1/5 — Didn’t work

*2019-02-13*

When I tried to connect it to the board it didn’t work and said that the board didn’t exist

### 3/5 — Good but not perfect

*2018-07-06*

I absolutely love using this app. I love the fact that I can mirror my iPad onto the bored. It makes the process of watching videos a little bit easier. There are just some minor problems. When a video plays it seems to go frame by frame. Also, when I put YouTube on and let the kids listen to music while working I get disconnected a lot. But besides that I really enjoy

### 5/5 — Good Tool

*2018-06-29*

Perfect for mirroring student work on to your ActivBoard to engage students and highlight work.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work.

*2018-05-01*

No troubleshooting guide either.
