Google updates Jamboard mobile and tablet apps

Google has redesigned the Jamboard apps for iOS and Android to improve usability, performance and reliability for Jamboard users. These updates create a rich collaborative experience for Jamming across all user touchpoints.

This creates a more seamless and consistent experience, bringing familiar functionalities from other Google Editors to Jamboard. You’ll be able to take actions such as starring, make a copy of a Jam or copy a link to a Jam. Google is also adding the standard G Suite link sharing abilities found in our editors to our apps to make sharing easier.

You can view recent, shared with me, starred and trashed Jams as browsable directories. These features are a part of the larger effort to bring the power and familiarity of G Suite to Jamboard. You’ll see a redesigned toolbar and framebar bringing a familiar interface from Jamboard hardware and the web to users. We’ve also added missing tools, such as the select tool to mobile and made the tools for inserting images and drive files more performant and reliable.

You can now share Jams using the standard G Suite sharing methods. You can open a Jam on Jamboard using Bluetooth. Also, you can join a Jam on Jamboard using Bluetooth or a jam-code that is created on Jamboard hardware.
