FOR FAMILIES, CLASSES AND ORGANISATIONS
Set it up once. Everyone just taps their name.
Whether it's your family, your class or a care home or day centre, the people you add never need an email address, a password or any technical know-how. You set everything up from your own account.
Made for doing things together
One plan for the whole group, with you in charge of who sees what.
Run it together
Invite up to three helpers to run the group with you, such as another parent, a colleague or a teaching assistant. They don't need to pay. Everyone's latest page is on one screen, updating as they draw.
You decide who sees what
Everyone's notebooks are their own. You can see them, or switch that off for anyone who'd like privacy, and their screen always says who can see. Want to share one? Send a copy to another UDoodle user and they get their own to work on.
A shared whiteboard
Add the whole group in one tap, then hand the digital pen to one person at a time while everyone watches it appear. Up to 30 people and 10 pages, and you can take the pen back whenever you like.
What it looks like for your group
FOR FAMILIES
Grandparents included
Type in each person's name and pick a picture for them. It takes two minutes, perhaps three.
On the family tablet they tap their name and start drawing. On their own phone or computer, they scan their sign-in card once and it remembers them.
See everyone's notebooks from your own phone, wherever you are, or switch this off for anyone who'd like some privacy.
Everyone has a 4-digit code, which you can change, for signing in somewhere new.
FOR CLASSROOMS
A class of thirty in five minutes
Paste in names straight from your register. Every pupil gets their own notebooks, a 4-digit code and a sign-in card to print.
The names of everyone in their class. They tap their own and start writing, and a note tells them you can see their notebooks.
Invite up to three co-teachers or teaching assistants. They can add pupils, reset codes and set up tablets, but can't see billing.
Move last year's pupils to past pupils: their work is kept and their places are freed. Paste in the new names and you're ready.
FOR ORGANISATIONS
Care homes, day centres and clubs
Paste in a list of names and give each person a picture and colour they'll easily recognise.
Large names and pictures on a simple screen. They tap theirs and they're drawing: no typing, no passwords, no menus.
You, plus up to three colleagues you invite: an activity coordinator, a key worker, whoever's on shift.
A member of staff can look them up in the list and show them which one is theirs.
Drawing together on a shared whiteboard
Add your whole group in one tap, then hand the digital pen to one person at a time. Whoever has it draws on their own screen, and everyone watches it appear.
Use it for a quiz, a brainstorm or working through a problem together. You decide who's on it and who has the pen, you can take the pen back at any time, and you can always draw yourself.
Common questions
Does it work on iPads, Chromebooks and phones?
Yes. It runs in Safari, Chrome or any up-to-date browser, with nothing to install. Phones work too, though a tablet gives more room to draw.
Does everyone need an email address or password?
No. Only the person setting up the group needs an email address. Everyone else taps their name on a set-up tablet, or scans their sign-in card.
Should we set up everyone's own devices?
No, only tablets or computers that several people share and that stay in one place, such as the family tablet or a class set of iPads. A set-up device shows everyone's names.
Can more than one adult manage the group?
Yes. Invite up to three colleagues or co-teachers by email. They don't need to pay.
Who can see someone's notebooks?
The person themselves, whoever set up the group, and any co-teachers. You can switch this off for anyone, and a note on their screen tells them whether you can see their notebooks.
Can we get the work out?
Yes. Any notebook can be downloaded as a PDF.
What if a tablet is lost or broken?
If it's lost, remove it from the list of set-up tablets and it can no longer open anyone's notebooks. If it's broken, set up the replacement in a minute or two.
What happens if the subscription lapses?
Nothing is deleted. After 30 days everyone can still open and download their work, but not draw, and drawing switches back on as soon as you subscribe again.
