Download fonts!
I would love to be able to download any fonts on Lumio, so that my fonts on my Powerpoints that I import, are added in. For example, my PowerPoints have NSW Print fonts which are imperative for teaching Stage 1 students. This font does not carry across when I use Lumio.

Thank you for your feedback. We are looking into adding support for more fonts in Lumio including ones that do not use the "computer a".

Allow sorts with more than 2 topics
I would love a sort with more than 2 topics. I just made a Lumio over 4 similar science terms. I wish we could sort into 4!

Allow monster quiz to insert answer choices that are images
Monster quiz multiple choice only allows answer choices that are text based. This feature would be improved by allowing an image to be inserted for different answer choices. For example, a question could be given an equation, and each answer choice would show a different graph image.
90 votesGood suggestion. We will consider it for our backlog.

Teachers should have the ability to save their question banks created in Lumio so that they can be reused for other games / activities.

Asynchronous Student Access to Response and other activities
Please enable the option for students to access and complete SLSO Response formative assessments via a shared link. Teachers would like to administer a formative assessment to their students asynchronously, rather than during a live lesson. Perhaps the teacher could "end" access to the assessment by choosing to "stop sharing" the link.

SLSO Waiting Room and Attendance/IP Log
We are running HyFlex lessons, having students in person and online, using SLSO. Is there a way to block guest users or have a waiting room for SLSO lessons? Is there a way to get a log of those in a given lesson with guest or signed in tracking? Is there a way to have students signing in automatically display their sign in name? i.e. username@schoolemail is user Username so display name would be "Username" in SLSO?

A way do download or make printable student work that has been completed on Individual or Workspace activities.
It would be great if we could download student work as a PDF or just have a print button available to print student work out.

YouTube Viewing Options for Teacher-Paced Lessons
Currently when presenting a teacher-paced lesson, students are able to start an embedded YouTube video instantly on their devices. There is no way for the teacher to control when students are able to start the video which often causes a lot of disruption within the class. Sometimes teachers want to play a YouTube video for the whole class to view together. It would be extremely helpful if teachers could play a YouTube video where students see the video in sync on their devices - OR - where the teacher could at least be able to click the option for students…

Inserting guided questions throughout videos
Teachers need to be able to insert guided questions at stopping points throughout ready-made videos or those they have created on their own. EdPuzzle and Nearpod both allow this and it's a game-changer for blended learning. Also, check out the Modern Classrooms Project.org to see how these videos allow teachers to assist other students while the majority are using self-paced videos. If I were to ever go back into the classroom, I would teach that way!

Screen cover
When I used SmartNotebook, I could put a screen cover into my slides so that I revealed more information as we worked through the slide as a class. When I upload my files to Lumio, that screen cover is removed and I don't see an option to add it back in.

Thanks for your feedback. We will look at how screen shade can be applied to instruction in Lumio. As a workaround for slowly revealing content, a foreground shape can be used as a manual screen shade for now.

Drag and drop images
Right now we have to search our computers for the images we need, but being able to drag and drop an image directly into a slide is a basic feature that would be really helpful. Can we get this?

Thanks for your feedback. We have added keyboard shortcuts to copy and paste images from any web page or application. We will consider adding drag and drop as an additional method to add images as well.

The ability to transfer or share files with SMART BOARD

Restrict students from changing their names in Lumio.
Allow teachers to restrict students from changing their names when logging into Lumio.
Ex: Students continue to change their names to something inappropriate and then respond with inappropriate messages in Lumio activities. Teachers then have difficulty tracing which student this is tied to so it would be helpful for teachers to restrict students from changing their names.53 votesunder review ·AdminSMART Technologies Product Management

Magic Pen
I would LOVE to see the Magic Pen on Whiteboard. More and more teachers are signing into the board and delivering their lessons through Whiteboard/Lumio but they miss Magic Pen. How great would it be to have the benefits of Magic Pen? Disappearing Ink, Spotlight, and Zoom!

Thanks for your feedback. We are interested in supporting the benefits of Magic Pen. How would you expect this tool to work on student devices when the teacher uses it on the board?

Google Slides Animation Compatibility
When importing google slides, animations from the original slide no longer function. Allowing such animations would help immensely and encourage the use of Lumio.

Keep Groupings in Lumio Lessons
When you are adding a group activity to a Lumio lesson, it creates groups. If you create another group activity later on in the lesson, it does not save the groups from earlier in the lesson. It would be great to have a choice--keep same groups from before or create new groupings!

Allow Immersive Reader language to be set for multiple pages
Currently Immersive Reader is reset for every single page. It would be nice to change the language or other settings just once, then have it applied to every single page in the Lumio lesson after that. That way the kids don't have to set it for every single page and waste valuable instruction time.
