User Reviews for Jamboard

Amazing!

When I first started this app, I had to do this project which was pretty easy, and when I saw this application, I started to use it a bit. It was a pretty good application at the time, and it was also multitasking app, which made my day. I love that I syncs with google drive, meet and google classroom, with all of that I can do all of my homework easily, instead of having to go to app to app to app just to finish my work. In the final result, I found this application very helpful in life.

This app is a game changer!

It works amazingly well for what I need. As a designer I want to iterate on ideas and organize those ideas quickly and this allows me to do that. Without getting bogged down in things having to “look nice”. Sure there are some improvements that can be made. I love the multiple erase options, I can clear a whole board, section or just erase a single line/sketch. You wouldn’t think something like that would be a highlight but it really is.My only suggestions at this point would be to maybe add a quick toggle option to see the board only without all the tools. Even less distraction when jotting down ideas. And some sort of angle/rotation lock feature for the text, sometimes when I re-size a text it starts to rotate and I can’t quite get it straight again.Overall, love the app and really hope Google keeps it around for awhile.

Half the People Leaving low reviews Don’t understand

Most people leaving low reviews either don’t understand the utility of this app, or specifically they don’t understand how to use the app itself.I’ve been using it as a collaborative visual aide with my friends to play dungeons and dragons, and it has been my preference over Roll20 and other online ways to play these types of games.It’s just fine, I wish there was a little more functionality, but honestly this is an incredibly generous piece of free software.

Game changer for virtual learning!

I absolutely love Jamboard! I use it with my students who are working on phonics skills and it has truly changed my experience with teaching students virtually. Jamboard makes it easy to create letter tiles with the sticky notes feature. My students love being able to move the tiles and write on the board along with me. I shared it with our math interventionist and she said it’s been a game changer for her, too. She’s able to see her students work math problems to see their thinking as they work. I love the simplicity of it.

Terrible

I use my phone for Jamboard but it always says “Something went wrong. Please try again.” I would like you to fix this issue. Computer users have no problem but iphone users like me have issues joining the Jamboard. I miss out in class participation because the Jamboard link provided by my teacher doesn’t allow me to join. “Something went wrong. Please try again.” My teacher is someone who doesn’t worry the technical issues of the students, so the students have to fix it themselves and if we cannot fix it, it affects our grade. I tried putting the link in safari, but it didn’t work either. I tried putting the link in and then going to desktop mode, but it still did not work.I don’t know what the issue is but I’ve missed a lot of class participation points for not answering the questions on the Jamboard due to the issue of not being able to join the Jamboard despite almost everyone else in my class being able to join. Please fix this issue immediately.

It’s okay

I think there isn’t too much you can work with on this app, however it’s not too shabby. I wish it had more variety in fonts and colors, and also was easier to use. Sometimes I try putting a picture in the bottom of the board and it instantly deletes it. Not only that but I also can’t manipulate the shapes of the sticky notes to have the words formatted a certain way. I just wish there was a bit more functionality to this app and variety when it comes to customizing the board.

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.

Absolute Garbage

I’ve been using this app throughout my school year for math and science classes. I’ve ran into many issues from crashes to my teacher not showing up on the board. There’s also a very noticeable lag even after both me and my teachers have confirmed that our internet connections were solid. My biggest gripe with this app is that whenever I’m using my Apple Pencil on the app, the app constantly senses that my palm is touching something and ends up moving a problem I’m working on. This has gotten to the point where I have to employ surgical precision to ensure I don’t mess up the entire page. Keep in mind that iPadOS has had a very functional palm rejection system in place for years. So if Google fixes all of this that would be a miracle.

Great for tutoring and updates in real time!!!

If you are trying to do work in real time, like tutor someone who lives far away from you in math for example, use this app. It updates in real time, has a web application, and is free. The way I used it: I was collaborating on a math problem and I was writing on my iPad, while the other person was 400 miles away on their laptop following along using the web app. It worked out great!!! Best part? It’s free!!!

Surprisingly good

Generally, Google’s apps aren’t great on iPad (Docs, Sheets, Gmail), but Jamboard has been done really well. Between accounts, the changes sync quickly. The app has subtle, but polished animations (like how things disintegrate when being erased from a different device), and everything shows up on the web as well. While it’s certainly useful as a business tool, it can also be used as a fun way to play handwritten games with a friend or family member remotely. It’s honestly surprising how well this app has been developed and designed when compared to Google’s other iOS apps.
