Great potential, but too many bugs and there's (imho) a better whiteboard out there. I originally planned on waiting a bit before refunding this, but the developer hasn't commented yet on any of my issues and i've since found out how to use Tilt Brush to (much better) achieve what i wanted. So in this review i'm going to lay out what this app does, why i refunded it and why i believe tilt brush is better anyway. I used the oculus rift with touch controllers on Windows 10 64bit with a GTX 1070 gpu. The app aims to fill a real need: It provides a whiteboard on which you can handwrite (with smooting options so that your writing is pleasantly legible), a few combinations of marker colour and thickness (it may state 750 combinations on the store page but i'll explain later why it's still "few") and the ability to insert pdf pages and pictures. PROS: [list] [*]The interface is beautiful. You have a movable whiteboard in front of you, a file inserting menu on your left and can bring up a q...

About This Game
Features
- Never run out of writing space: simply grab the surface, scroll over to a blank area, and continue writing! You'll never reach an edge, because there aren't any.
- Choose from 750+ marker color and thickness combinations.
- Nothing is permanent: either use the built-in eraser to clear an area on the board or use undo and redo to erase recent strokes.
- Markers provide haptic feedback while drawing and feature adjustable marker smoothing to help you write legibly.
- Import images (JPG/PNG/TIFF/GIF/BMP/ICO) and arrange them on the whiteboard. Use them to create moodboards, do homework assignments, prepare presentations, or even to do code reviews.
- The perfect study space: import PDF course material, grab a virtual marker, and shut yourself off from all outside distractions. You can even record your homework sessions to share them with your classmates and the world using the interactive desktop view and recording software of your choice.
- Export your drawings as SVG images and view them in the browser when you're not in VR, import them into your office suite, or share them with your team. Also useful for recording your own signature for embedding in documents or emails.

Pretty much all I wanted, even though I never knew I wanted it. When working on a project, a digital infinite whiteboard like this is great - and if you telecommute (like I do) it's great to draw up something and share it with others by exporting to SVG. This is a professional tool, and you'll be disappointed if you think this is some kind of drawing app or Tilt Brush competitor. With that said, it's very polished and intuitive. I can't wait to finally use VR at work, and I'll be showing this off to my boss when I bring my VR rig to the office. I can see this being used for educational purposes, especially online courses. You already have tablets and wacom boards that sort-of does this, but there's more freedom in VR where you can flail your whole arms around. For professors used to blackboards, this would probably feel a lot more natural,
Awesome app, clean intuitive and simple yet very useful, the effect of "touching" the board to draw gives a lot of realism and extra accuracy. I have two suggestions: 1.- To be able to rotate the angle of the pen to mimic the real position that we use to write, grabbing it like a gun feels unnatural, and hurts the wrist a bit in continuous use. I solved that actually grabbing the control in a different way so the pen points to the projection of my fingers and it really makes a difference. At least you can put a flag in the configuration with an optional fixed rotation. 2.- If you can place a ruler with your left hand and use your right hand over it to draw straight lines will be outstanding. Again, this is an awesome app, actually a tool to work for some of us, worth the price.
It is exactly what it says it is a virtual dry erase board. As im an ME student at college right now the pictures really got me and to be able to export pictures is sick af! I cant wait to try out some homework out in here.. next semester.. cus its summer f*ck that! I wish i had as neat "virtual handwriting" as the demo pictures :(
Great Concept but not there yet. The File loading is KLUNKY. and it is a very basic white board. Adding ability to back away, resize, scale, maybe even some shapes would be great. This just allows for drawing and not very friendly.
video glitches every time I load this. Also, cannot no matter what I do get the file folders to load. Just a blank circle. I had high hopes for this, but I can't load anything, and very often this stutters while trying to load various things.
Nice idea - buggy execution. Don't think it's ready for prime time yet. May rebuy later
I like it. Moar updates!
I am a high school physics and chemistry teacher that was forced into digital instruction from COVID-19. Thank you devs for making this. I have used it alongside OBS to record my digital lectures, and (from asking) the students agree that it truly does feel like being in my classroom. After some bug testing and other things, i will continue to use this software despite its bugs throughout the corona quarantine time period. The students really REALLY appreciate it. I have the Valve Index. PROS: -the ability to import PDF's and images onto the screen is a must have. I typically need a note sheet or otherwise to guide my thinking during lecture, i can easily put that on the side for my reference. -the "spectator mode" is gentle and won't make my students motion sick. its as if theres a camera floating just above me. phenomenal for spectating a lecture. No movement unless i'm moving the board around. -Color and width customization for the markers and ease of use. Very cool! -unlimi...
Waste of 10 bucks.
