How to use this tool

This free online whiteboard opens instantly in your browser, so you can start sketching right away with no account. Draw with a pen, highlighter and eraser, drag out lines, arrows, rectangles and ellipses on a white, grid, dot or dark board, undo up to 100 steps, and save the board as a 1600 × 900 PNG for a video call, a YouTube storyboard, a lesson or a content plan.

  1. 01

    Pick a background

    Choose White, Grid, Dots or Dark. Grid and Dots help keep diagrams and handwriting straight.

Frequently asked questions

Is this online whiteboard free?

Yes. No signup, no account and no limit.

How do I save my whiteboard?

Click PNG to download the board as a 1600 × 900 image, background included.

Can I draw straight lines and shapes?

Yes. Choose Line, Arrow, Rectangle or Ellipse and drag across the board.

Can I undo?

Yes. Use Undo and Redo, or Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Y (⌘ on a Mac). The last 100 steps are kept, and even Clear can be undone.

Does it work on an iPad or phone?

Yes. Draw with your finger or an Apple Pencil or other stylus; the page stays still while you draw.

How do I show my whiteboard to others?

Does the eraser keep the grid?

Yes. The eraser removes only your ink, so the grid, dots or dark background stay in place.

In your browser tab on your device. Download the PNG to keep a copy.

Can I use a dark board?

Yes. Choose Dark; the default ink switches to white so it stands out.
