The Explain Everything app can be downloaded onto your mobile device or computer. You can import images, documents, slides, and videos into a project. You can also create objects and animations on the Explain Everything whiteboard. We recommend using an external microphone on mobile devices when recording your narration. This reduces noise when writing on the Explain Everything whiteboard.
