User Reviews

Users praise Explain Everything as a powerful, teacher-friendly whiteboard with strong sharing/storage options and classroom versatility. However, recurring concerns center on high, subscription-only pricing, reliability issues (freezes, crashes, lost projects), negative changes post-acquisition (collaboration limits), and cloud-reliant design that can impact offline use.

Pros

Powerful, feature-rich whiteboard with educator-friendly features, flexibility, and polish.
Reliable and long-used in education; consistently helpful for teaching.
Strong cloud integrations with Google Drive and YouTube for saving and sharing materials.
Versatile for classroom use, including replacing a document camera and producing instructional content.

Cons

Pricing model is subscription-only and expensive; many users want a one-time lifetime license.
Frequent stability issues: freezes, crashes, projects disappearing, and inconsistent behavior across devices.
Perceived negative changes after Promethean's acquisition, including new limits on collaboration and other restrictions.
Heavy reliance on cloud storage can hinder offline use and create workflow issues for users who prefer local storage.

I’ve never had it before but when I make a video, it is cutting off the writing that I was doing on the screen.

The app would randomly do odd things, like my background just turned black, the finger tool stopped moving object and would only select even if it was not in select mode. The top menus was overlapping the lock and battery icons so it was hard to tap on them. Maybe work on making this app better instead of trying so hard to make me pay for it with constant pop ups and restrictions. Adding the pop-menu for Apple Pencil Pro would also be nice. Very disappointed because the ability to use it as a whiteboard in airplay it probably the only good things is has going for it.
