Jamboard 4+

I stopped using the mobile app altogether when I did not need to use the app from my hospital bed when I didn’t have my computer. I started using it again for a tad bit to check recent updates on one of my Jamboards. Only to be met with utter disappointment. When I went into the app, everything was a green flag, I was logged into my account, and everything was in order until I opened the designated jam board; it kept on freezing, and it was in no way updated from its last spot. Every slide in that jam board was back from late February, not from march, the jam board did not correct, and to top it off, it freezes every 0.2 milliseconds. I am deleting and reinstalling the app, for this is the only way I can make silly slides with my best friend. This problem is crucial, and I cannot believe the mobile app has let me down. These bug fixes must be fixed, and I will not change my opinion until all is corrected. Thank you for your time, and have a good day.

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.

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.
