The whiteboard lives behind the Share Screen button in the session toolbar.

From your side

You’re in a session. The toolbar at the bottom of your screen has the same controls you’ve used throughout — mic, camera, Share Screen, end call.
1

Tap Share Screen

A small picker appears next to the button. Two options: Share Screen and Whiteboard.
2

Pick Whiteboard

The canvas takes over your session view. The presets menu sits top-left, the export controls sit top-right, and the Two-way toggle sits at the bottom-center.
3

Draw

Use the pen, the shape tools, drop a preset, or drag in a sticky note. Everything you do appears on the client’s side in real time.
4

Stop sharing when you're done

Tap Share Screen again. The canvas closes; you and your client are back on camera.
If you want to keep what you drew, export to PDF or PNG before you stop sharing. Closing the whiteboard discards the drawing. See exporting as PDF.

What your client sees

The moment you pick Whiteboard, the client’s screen-share area fills with your canvas. It looks identical to a shared desktop to them — same panel, same layout, same “you’re sharing something with me” cue they already understand. A few specifics worth knowing:
  • They don’t need to install anything. The whiteboard is rendered as video on their end, riding the same encrypted channel as the rest of the call.
  • They watch by default. Until you flip Two-way ON, they can see the canvas but can’t draw on it.
  • No icons, no toolbars, no buttons on their end. Their view is just the canvas — the controls live on your side.
  • Your camera stays on. If your camera was running before you opened the whiteboard, it stays on as a thumbnail tile so the client can still see your face.

Why it lives behind Share Screen

Every video-call product worth the name puts the whiteboard inside the same button as screen-share — Zoom, Meet, Teams, Doxy all do it the same way. The reason is that practitioners and clients have already learned the muscle memory: “the thing she’s showing me lives in the screen-share area.” Putting the whiteboard behind a separate button would force everyone to learn a new mental model for the same outcome. Behind Share Screen, it just works.

Switching from screen share to whiteboard mid-session

You can move between them freely. Tap Share Screen again to stop the current share, then tap it once more and pick the other option. The transition takes about a second — the client briefly sees their normal video feed, then the new shared content.
