What whiteboard/drawing app do you use to convey something visual in a virtual meeting?

I'm ideally looking for one that allows me to type in addition to draw.

I would love your input, IH

    I heard good things about Miro.

      Miro is definitely the best one I found so far. The tools are a little clunkier than I'd like, but it does work well. If I'm trying to add a lot of shapes and text at the same time, it's kind of hard, but maybe I just need more practice with it. Thanks for making a suggestion!

        Recently got the entire dev team in a publicly-traded company to get on miro for visualization. Great tool!

    I use OneNote on my iPad with Apple Pencil for exactly this purpose. It syncs across all my devices and is pretty easy to use.

      I miss using OneNote!! I have a Google Pixelbook for a laptop now, which runs on Android, so I can't install Microsoft software :( I just found another tool that I think might be the one: MURAL (mural.co).

        Depending on which chrome book you have, you can install the Android version of OneNote. It’s not as good as the native Windows app, but it’ll get the job done

          Oh I just checked it out and you're right - I can install it. Unfortunately I don't have a Microsoft subscription :-/ I just use G Suite for everything.
