Feature Suggestion for SMART iQ Whiteboard – Admin Control for Selected Students.
Dear SMART Team,
I am a frequent user of the SMART iQ Whiteboard in educational settings and would like to suggest an enhancement to the "Start for the whole class" feature.
Currently, when enabling this function, all students can collaborate simultaneously. While this is great for engagement, it would be highly beneficial to have an admin control where the teacher can:
Select specific students who are allowed to write on the board.
See which student contributed what, ensuring clarity and accountability.
This addition would provide more structure to collaborative work and help teachers manage participation effectively.I appreciate your consideration…

Line drawing tool update
Just seeking an update to a request and an answer by Joe Selby saying it was in the near term plans, any more specific timeframes for this sort of thing? We'd really like to see the line drawing tool sooner rather than later and would appreciate a more concrete timeline for implementation.
The whiteboard toolset for 7075 v.2 and above needs a significant update, a line drawing tool is absolutely necessary, our University Accounting and Economics courses need a feature like this when using your product.

Please make the time in the lower right hand side of the board bigger.
Apparently, the time recently changed font size and the teachers are complaining that it's too small. Thank you. Wendy Tech Coach
4 votesHi Wendy, the iQ Whiteboard does not display time in the bottom right of the screen (or anywhere else). iQ doesn't display time in the bottom right corner either. Are you displaying a connected laptop?

Full screen view in SMART iQ™ 4 whiteboard
It would be great to find a way to get (temporary) rid of the floating tool bar of the SMART iQ™ 4 whiteboard (i. e. when embedding/playing a full screen video).
A possible solution could be to have a new "full screen view" available in the whiteboard which makes the floating tool bar disappear (temporary). To go back to the "regular view" including the floating tool bar there could be an icon in the upper right corner of the full screen to tap on.
Thanks!
Cheers,
Thomas1 voteThank you for your feedback. We have been considering this issue, and we have a few ideas we're exploring. One is to allow the user to shorten the toolbar to essential buttons only (pen tool, add page, etc.). Another is to allow the toolbar to be collapsed entirely. It would become a button on the side of the screen.
This second option sounds similar to what you're suggesting. It does open the door to other questions, like would you want to use toolbar elements from a collapsed state? Would you want to be able to move the button? And should it be anchored to a side or free-floating?
If you have any additional thoughts you'd like to share, your feedback is appreciated.

Palm Rejection
I remember there used to be a feature called palm rejection. Where someone with a disability could rest their hand on the screen and still be able to write with the pen. And the palm rejection would detect that and reject touch for that.

Enhance Basic Whiteboard Functionality on IQ3 for Boards that cant run IQ4
Having been told by Smart support that IQ4 cannot be run on my MX v2 screen, my request is that basic functionality like add arrows, shapes and lines be added to the IQ3 that is running on the MXv2.
For a school with 10 whiteboards, spending thousands on a hardware upgrade kit just to be able to draw lines and arrows is not reasonable.
This really needs to be included on a basic IQ3 update.

Simple line, arrow & shape drawing tool for IQ Whiteboard on MX
I really need some basic drawing tools in the native IQ Whiteboard without having to connect to a PC to use Smart Notebook. The simplest of drawing tools like arrows, lines and basic shapes would be ideal. Today I wanted to split my MX screen to show 2 ways to complete a maths problem. I’d love to be able to choose draw - line - and using the pen, draw a simple straight line. I don’t want to have to keep a PC beside the board to mirror to it as I use my PC less and less these days.…
3 votesThe iQ4 update released today (December 11, 2024) includes a shape tool and text creator tool. We will be adding lines/arrows in the new year. We will also be updating shapes and text to include more formatting options.
If your school is not yet using iQ4, talk to your IT Admin on what possibilities are available to upgrade.

Make Whiteboard Toolbar Collapsable
The whiteboard menu is large and gets in the way of using the whole screen. It would be very helpful if you could collapse or be partially dragged off the side of the visible screen.
Additionally, having the option to nest the toolbar to the side of the screen would be an improvement to the current floating whiteboard toolbar.

Settings for a standard size for handwriting to text Tool
We use Smartboard at a school for the visually impaired kids. To improve the readability for the pupils and make it simpler for our teachers, we would like to have the option to set the size of the text converted from handwriting in a standarized size. Actually the converted text is very small and we have to resize each word separately.
1 voteThat's a very practical use. I'll see what we can do!

Line drawing tool
The whiteboard toolset for 7075 v.2 and above needs a significant update, a line drawing tool is absolutely necessary, our University Accounting and Economics courses need a feature like this when using your product.
8 votesWork has begun on developing this feature. It is scheduled to be included in our summer iQ4 release.
To manage expectations, this first Lines/Arrows release will not include connectors on shapes, but that is forthcoming. We just need more time to build that functionality.

Individuelle Aus- und Zuschaltung des Werkzeuges Spotlight
Ich möchte den magischen Stift im Deutschunterricht für Lernwörter nutzen. Wort schreiben, Schülerschaft schaut sich das Wort an bis es verschwunden ist und schreibt es anschließend aus dem Gedächtnis auf. Leider funktioniert dies bei Wörtern mit runden oder ovalen Buchstaben (o O) nicht, da sich dabei das Spotlight einschaltet. Gibt es eine Möglichkeit diese Funktion bei dem magischen Stift individuell auszustellen?

Split Screen Option for MX V1 and V2
It would be nice to be able to have the option to use Split Screen as this shows https://support.smarttech.com/docs/software/iq/en/getting-started/split-screen.cshtml . Some of our boards have the V3 and teachers are able to use it while other teachers have the V2 and unable to use it. All of our teachers want to use it. Can there be an update to the software to allow this for previous MX versions?

Add Immersive Reader to IFP
Add Immersive Reader to the IFP. This would allow teachers to effectively utilize all of those terrific literacy functions with small group and whole classes who are not on Chromebooks.

Show actual ACTIVE pen settings
When you change the pen mode, it sticks to the change (as it should). But if you go back to see which one you have selected at the moment, it shows the default (regular pen thickness, black color), so users think they are stuck with a kind of pen or color they don't want anymore. You have to go change it on both pen style AND color in order to go back to normal or back to where you want.
It would be more straightforward if what you see is what you get. Please check on the attached video for…

Add the international phonetic alphabet to smartboard language options
I work for Tla'amin Nation's Education Department, and we use SMARTboards in our ʔayʔaǰuθəm immersion classrooms. ʔayʔaǰuθəm (pronounced Ayajuthem) is the language of the Tla'amin people and is written using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). If IPA was available as a language pack to download, like English or Arabic or Japanese, then we could use the ink to text feature for ʔayʔaǰuθəm language classes, which would be so great!
You can find information about the ʔayʔaǰuθəm keyboard here: https://keyman.com/keyboards/fv_klahoose
You can find more information about the International Phonetic Alphabet here: https://www.internationalphoneticalphabet.org/ipa-sounds/ipa-chart-with-sounds/

Profil Boardübergreifend verfügbar machen
Wir melden uns an den Boards mittels NFC-Karte mit unseren MS 365 Konten an. Ich kann mein Profil pro Board sehr schön konfigurieren und muss mich so nur einmalig an des Apps anmelden und die Apps sind in meinem Profil gespeichert. Allerdings muss ich die Installationen und App-Einrichtungen an jedem Board wiederholen. Es wäre schön, wenn ich mir einmal ein Profil einrichte und ich dieses Profil an jedem Board verfügbar habe.

Reset whiteboards at the end of a period
I have quite a few staff who used SMART notebook for their lunch counts and would like to transition to using a lumio file in the embedded IQ. The problem they're having is that they have to undo each and every student name move every day, whereas with notebook, they just didn't save the file so it reverted back to the original file. This would also be helpful when doing the same lesson with multiple classes.
