Instrument are using Jamboard to generate and share creative ideas. The latest Jamboard release brings several new features―to both devices and the Jamboard app―to help people create and iterate on their ideas more quickly. We’re also making it easier for admins to monitor their Jamboard devices.
Edit recognized handwritingPeople can now edit their recognized handwritten text with the stylus, allowing for the quick deletion, insertion, and merging of text. To delete, simply strike over the letter(s) you would like to remove from a word. To insert letter(s), write these either above or below the word and draw a small arrow to insert them. To merge, select a text object and drag it to another text object.

Additional reporting in the Jamboard Admin consoleJamboard admins can now see historical data for Wi-Fi network strength (RSSI), Wi-Fi network speed, and board online/offline status in the Jamboard Admin console.
