Frequently asked questions
Do I need an account to use the whiteboard?
No. Boards are saved in your browser, and you can share or sync them through links without creating an account.
Is collaboration on the board private?
Live sessions, snapshot links and sync are encrypted in your browser with AES-GCM. The key is kept in the part of the link after #, which browsers never send to the server. API request cards are the exception: those requests go through the server.
What can I put on a board besides drawings?
Sticky notes, to-do lists, code with syntax highlighting, tables, API requests, variables, Mermaid diagrams, timers, dot votes, comment threads and links to other boards.
Can I use it offline?
Yes. It can be installed as an app, works offline, and keeps your boards in the browser.
How do I export a whiteboard?
Use export to save the whole board as a PNG, SVG or PDF, or as a .scrawl file you can open again later.
