@connorstweetin We're really glad that you like it! We decided to forgo a shapes tool because we didn't want to clutter that area. We do however have keyboard shortcuts and shape detection for rectangles and circles :).
Very impressed for first version launch. The Slack plugin is super handy, so you can launch a new board with just a command. Right now, they seem to be having their servers overloaded, so load times are very long. This is a good thing though :) Congrats team, well done 👏🏼
Pros:
Shape detection! Can see other users in real-time. Slack plugin! No signup and can easily share a link to your board.
Cons:
Super simple, but expected for a first launch. Not really a con

Cannot import docs (diagrams, pdfs etc) and edit on them or export after the end of the meeting. Hard to sketch using mouse, need tablets
Thank you! Yeah, we are definitely thinking about importing docs for annotations. We wanted to ship a minimal feature set for GA, but great suggestion nonetheless. Will definitely get to it soon.
Yeah, we really had to think about how to make a smooth UX on a desktop/laptop and we came up with the keyboard shortcuts (more on this when you see help sidebar) and shape detection. In my opinion, once you get the hang of the keys, the desktop experience will be much better 🙂.
It's great this app. I can imagine some interesting uses with it. However, It has to be improved, because I've just tested it with a coworker nearby (in the same network) and we experimented some delays when he tried to draw something. It should be real 'real-time' experience. But If you could fix it (I think so), it would be so useful.
@sergioruizdavila Yup I believe it's because of the traffic we are getting. We will look into improve the speed and stability over the next few weeks. Thanks for the heads up!

If we could upload soma kind of document or image it will be a must have
There is screen zooming if you have a multitouch trackpad or are viewing on a mobile device. Simply pinch-zoom like you would on maps.

It is a good free whiteboard that has the potential to be very useful in online learning between teachers and students. Would love to see more tools added in the future.
Pros:
It has a simple clean interface. Very simple to use.
