Just like the real thing, but without the stains

Office workers around the world have seen major changes to the way they work over the past 15 months or so. Almost overnight, the global pandemic forced employers to transition to a remote workforce. And as some people return to their offices while others continue to work remotely, new tools are needed to support flexible work arrangements.

Software companies are steadily rolling out new and improved ways to collaborate remotely and in hybrid meeting situations. For example, Microsoft recently released an updated version of its Whiteboard app for Windows 10, which comes with a revamped user interface and some new features. We’ll show you how to find and install the modernized Whiteboard app, and give you a few tips for using it.

The new Whiteboard app is available through the Microsoft Store. If your organization has limited access to the Store, talk to your IT team about access to the new Whiteboard app. If you do have access, go to the Microsoft Store in a web browser and search for Whiteboard. Then select the Microsoft Whiteboard app and follow the instructions to install it.
