Multiple ideas
Detailed usage logging with possibility to make exports, so that we can verify if the Smart displays are really being used when the room is booked for specific hours.
I see that it's already been asked, but the shutdown command would be highly appreciated so we can create a power schedule with time triggers.
It's currently only possible to sort by "Last Seen" would like to be able to also sort by "HardwareID" and "Name"4 votes -
USB token to lock/unlock MX and 7000R series displays
It would be great to lock and unlock the whole SMART Board® interactive display screen with a specific token on a USB thumb drive (like locking the settings). In a nutshell, working with a MX or 7000R series display should provide a fast and easy lock and unlock procedure for the whole screen. Just like the 6000S series will provide with the new SMART ID cards (in my case without the logon credentials of the ID cards).
Let's say you have a new additional option in the SMART iQ™ settings to write a token to an USB thumb drive which…

Board Sharing Code
Teachers in our district would currently like to share SMART Notebook presentations from their laptop to other Teachers boards in the school building. As of right now getting the code for their board is somewhat cumbersome. The teachers are logged into the board with their school email, but have to log out of the board to see the code. The code is found by clicking on the icon on the right that looks like a cell phone/tablet. That icon disappears when they log into the board with their email. This typically wouldn't be a problem, but the board code changes/times…
4 votesThanks for the feedback. I understand the frustrations with pairing a board using the board code. We’re currently working on a solution that will greatly simplify this by getting rid of the board code in an upcoming release.
The plan is to SMART Notebook files that are uploaded to suite.smarttech.com to also be accessible from within the board’s Files Library when the teacher logs in to the board with the same account.

Ability to lock or disable video inputs :
We would like the ability to disable or force a specific video input.
There is no ability to disable inputs in the configuration of our SPNL-6000 series boards.
Even better would be to be able to include this in the USB configuration file.4 votes -
Shout out! app
The Shout out! app has such potential! It would be really nice if the teacher can load content on the screen for the students to respond to. For example, imagine for a language class, a stack of flashcards that is pre-edited, and students can use the buzzer to verbally respond to it, or type the response. Please add the function to load content onto the screen.

whiteboard indicator for multiple slides
Add a visual cue in the Whiteboard app to indicate when there are multiple pages. Adding something like parallel lines to the right of the "page sorter" would be a good cue to communicate that there are multiple pages.
Currently, there is a number indicator, but if you are on page 1, there is not a way to tell if there are more pages without clicking on the "page sorter" or "page forward" button.

Moving Lumio Lessons to Public Files
Using the "public files" section is great for when you have a supply teacher, but there is no option to put a Lumio file in public files". This is difficult because it encourages teachers to move away from Lumio and rely on Google Slides so they can leave lessons for supply teachers. There should be a way to put a Lumio lesson in the public files area.

Whiteboard
I would like to insert images from the web but Pixabay clipart doesn't allow for it. I would like for SMart to bring back Bing or something similar to search for images and videos in real time.

Shorter SMART Mirror Pairing Code (Local Network)
SMART Mirror App pairing code is 10 digits, which when entering multiple times throughout a day has started to frustrate staff at my large school.
I know it is because it can be accessed over the internet and it is to avoid double ups. But we are using ours only on local network (with the “local only” setting turned on).
If that setting is enabled, can it be made into like a 4 digit code?

Google Docs Zoom Feature
Please add the pinch to zoom feature in the Google Docs SMART Board app. The Google Sheets and Google Slides apps already allow this action. This will help for better annotation and instructional practices in the classroom.

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.
3 votesThat's a very practical use. I'll see what we can do!

SmartMirror Touchback for selected shared screen (Screen 1, 2, etc)
Allow Smart Mirror touchback control to work with whichever screen is selected to share. Currently it only works with the "Primary" display. If Screen 1 is the primary display on the computer, then touchback works on that screen but if you select to share Screen 2, it is visual only with no touch-back control.

Reports
For a School District with many smartboards to manage, there are some tools in the form of Reports that would be very useful in order to keep track of incidents on smartboards.
The report I have been needing lately is regarding Reboots, we have many users not reporting issues all the time, but we noticed they continuosly restart their smartboards and we want to know why.So on my dream report I would see:
-Reboot history (numbers)
-Time of the day reboots are happening
-Origin (spontaneous, remote, via front button, rocker button, etc)
-Account logged in at time of reboot…3 votes -
All inserted videos to be deleted as needed in Whiteboard App
In the Whiteboard app, we've been able to insert a video(s) on a page to have ready for instruction and it would open full screen. Just recently, we lost the ability to delete the video. PLEASE reinstate this ability to resize and delete if needed. Having teaching resources at your fingertips is priceless. Thanks
3 votesSorry about this! We're currently working on a solution for the next iQ release.
In the meantime, this is how some users are deleting videos:
1. Hold and drag video (even just an inch or something) so the light blue annotation selection rectangle shows up
2. Put a second finger on the video (might need to make a motion so the whiteboard acknowledges the second finger, such as the increase/decrease video size motion)
3. Remove the original finger and pan on some empty space on the whiteboard. You will see the radar view's gridlines move to let you know you were successful.
The above guarantees you can always select the video, and doesn't launch the video

SMART screen share app - update to work with MacOS14
SMART Screen share no longer works once a user has updated to MacOS14. When you have boards mounted to the wall, connecting the laptop using wires is a step backward and also a safely hazard. Our teachers need the ability use touchback which makes your suggestion of using airplay or googlecast worthless since they do not allow touchback. Holding back updating to the latest OS on our laptops is not possible. Consider updating the SMART screen share app, OR making SMART mirror functional on the 6000 series boards.

Allow saving of the open tabs as your chromium start up screen
Allow saving of the open tabs as your chromium start up screen. Every time there is an update I have to reload all of my chromium tabs and passwords for those websites. Please make it like the chrome desktop setting where there is an option to "open specific pages (tabs) on startup". Thanks!
3 votesHello! It looks like others using Chromium and Google Chrome on Android are experiencing the same frustration. Google is currently working on this but no release date yet. I expect to see this in a future version of Chrome/Chromium.

Get back to eShare
Worked excellent. Movies with sound - no problem. Any device.
Smart Screen Share and Smart Mirror has not been able to do that. Screen Share is useless on mac (oneway-communication getting 20 seconds delay)
Smart Mirror cant do sound and the resolution is hopeless if u wanna cast a movie.
