Microsoft Whiteboard provides a freeform intelligent canvas where teams can ideate, create, and collaborate visually via the cloud or share through the WB App on iPads, iPhones and Windows 10 machines. Designed for pen and touch, it lets you write or draw as smoothly as you would with ink, while automatically recognizing and transforming shapes and tables as you draw.
Whiteboards can be access through the MS Whiteboard App or through the Cloud. Please note: at this time the Cloud version tools are not as robust as the App version.
To get started, open the Whiteboard App from the start menu of a Windows 10 Machine. Click on the Plus sign to create a new board. Use the tools to create, import, and embed. Invite collaborators!
