Timers (not widgets) for Whiteboard/Lumio lessons
I would like to be able to embed a timer (or multiple timers) on a Whiteboard page, which I can then start independently (each timer). I like using multiple timers (widgets) to drive instruction, but I have to pull each timer widget onto the Whiteboard each time.

Bing (Safe Search)
Please consider using Google Safe Search rather than Bing. Bing, even though it says "safe search" is not a safe search. We often find inappropriate images get through even with our strict filtering and firewall. According to our firewall vendor, Bing does not enforce safe searches. Due to this, Bing should not be the search engine of choice in the educational setting.

Allow one student at a time to edit/ write on the lesson.
Instead of every student having access to edit at once, I think the teacher should be able to click on a student and give JUST that student control to edit. When they all can edit at once, they act silly.

Being able to change background and backside on the cards when making a memory
Hi! I´m working with young people (ages from 16-20) with learning disabilities and other disabilities (e.g autism) at a High school and I would like to be able to change the background for the memory-activity and also the backside for the memory-cards. The memory-cards all have different figures at the back and that makes it difficult for our students, if it would be possible to have the same backside on all cards they would be more like the "physical" memory-cards we use. When it comes to the background it can sometimes be better to have a more neutral background that…

Thanks for the suggestion. We may explore more neutral themes for the Memory Match activity.

jamboard
Is there any way that you could make it so that Jamboard files from Google Drive could be imported and converted to Lumio files prior to Jamboard being discontinued? I have teachers who have a lot of lessons they'd love to port in to Lumio.
Thanks!

Format changes
When transferring lessons from Notebook to Lumio I am having difficulties with format changes. Sometimes the fonts change, the size of the fonts change and also items that are grouped change position. I like to make tabs using a semi circle and rectangle. When I transfer the information to Lumio sometimes the two shapes stay grouped however they are not together. One shape moved. It doesn't happen to everything which makes it confusing. I have to go back to the lesson in Notebook. Ungroup everything. Move the pieces around the page and then put them back together. Sometimes that works…

Import from Google Drive when editing in a Shared Library
Currently, you can only import from Lumio Library or upload PDF/PPT when editing a file in the shared libraries. I would like to be able to import from Google Drive just like I can in My Library

mix and match
words are being split apart, it's really hard to read, and can't read the the full text description. There should be an option to change the box size and text size of text.

A digital laser pointer or temporary ink would be usefull in order to point at an object on the screen to create attention without actually drawing on the screen.

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?

The Ability to Add Audio Files to Pages and Game Based Activities
I would like the ability to add audio clips to pages and game based activities. If I can add video, and I can add images, I should also be able to add audio. Adding audio would be helpful with activities for Multilingual students, students in foreign language classes, and activities created for music, choir, or band and orchestra. Or just for teachers who are creating activities with vocabulary concepts that would benefit from an audio click attached.

Please give teacher's the option to default to Teacher OR Student Pacing. I would default to Student Pacing if I could.
Currently, Lumio defaults to Teacher Pacing. Most of the time I want students to be able to access my Lumio files at their own pace. So I have to change to Student Pacing. And that doesn't seem to stick! Being able to chose which I want to default to would be great and save me (and my students) a great deal of pain. (This seems to be the case even with the student links, which is how my students access the pages.)

Smart Notebook Files that don't autosave in Lumio
I have resources that are in Smart Notebook format that I purchased. I have them uploaded to Lumio. These are interactive documents where students come to my Smart Board and manipulate the slideshow...move the objects around, etc. Lumio automatically autosaves these changes. When I use my computer hooked up to my Smart Board, I use Smart Notebook and I can't save the changes because the files are "read only." Lumio automatically saves the changes, even when I choose "start" instead of "edit.". This means I have to go in and individually delete every single cloned object, and put every page…

Thanks for the feedback. We will be exploring more ways to include and make images more visible in game-based activities.

teacher note section
I would love to have a section specifically for the teacher's use, where they can make notes and comments that may be needed during the lesson or activity they are conducting. For example, in Keynote, there is a comment section where you can input comments that are not visible to the audience you are presenting to.

Fix numbering and bullet feature
The numbering and bullet feature in Lumio is messed up. Worked fine in 2023-2024 school year, but this year it is a hot mess. Please fix. Working with it is very frustrating.

Make the QR code optional for every lesson
Every single lesson in Lumio pops up a QR code to get the students to join. Not every lesson needs them to have their own tablet with the lesson in front of them. As a first grade teacher, I want their focus for our lessons to be on me, not on their own tablets. It is very annoying to have every single lesson, all day every day pop up this code. It should be optional for lessons that have activities in them, but not on every single one.
