Cand sa il folosesti

Maps & Directions

"Come in the building and turn left at..." Directions that are hard to explain in text become simple with a drawing.

Recommended settings:
- Mode: Solo drawing
- Password: A simple password
- Expiration: 24 hours
-> Easy way to share meeting point directions

Idea Sketches

Quickly sketch ideas that are hard to explain in words and share them with colleagues. Hand-draw UI wireframes, architecture diagrams, flowcharts, and more.

Education & Lessons

Teachers can draw solutions and share them with students, or use Collaborative mode to let students work through problems directly.

Fun & Games

Play drawing quizzes with friends, do relay drawing, or simply doodle together. The password keeps outsiders from joining.

Handwritten Messages

Send birthday wishes, thank-you notes, or encouraging messages in your own handwriting. Handwriting conveys sincerity better than typed text.
