Lock areas of the board that only facilitator can unlockDelivered

I recognize this would be a large system change. Here is the use case that causes me to request this feature: I am the facilitator of a large workshop. Several participants are NOT digital natives, and yet we want them to be able participate as actively as possible. There are some visually rich frames I wish the participants to interact with, but their interaction is limited to just a few items or types of items. When participants are new to Miro and not digital natives, something that seems simple to us can be very difficult for them, like “please select that image and move it to the other area of the board”. Especially if the item I want them to move is surrounded by or layered on top of other items, even when they’re locked, somehow the locked items end up getting unlocked for participants trying to figure out the tool. I’ve had participants inadvertently unlock and delete entire frames with multiple areas, instructions, columns, etc. I would like to be able to lock areas of the board that ONLY I can unlock as the facilitator.

Change cursor - instant reactions for effective team collaborationDelivered

THE ABSTRACT It would be a game-changer for online workshops if users’ could display their instant reactions inside the board in real-time. THE PROBLEM When managing workshops with multiple collaborators online it is pretty hard to get feedback from all of them at once on any subject. Some time ago ZOOM introduced “meeting reaction” that allowed quick and easy asking for vote, fast voting, checking status from all of users: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/360038311212-Meeting-reactions Unfortunately at Miro it is not that simple. One can make workaround - ask people to drag some objects to their avatars, but you need to organize tools, personal space and distract from current task. THE (POSSIBLE) SOLUTION What if any user could “send” its state of mind / readiness / instant reaction with a blink of an aye? And, in modern world, is there any better way to send reaction than with emoji? For fast accesibility and not breaking the current navigation, it could be under right-click for every user, something like: In miro you “avatar” is not a video feed, but your cursor with a name sticked to it. So what if instant emotion changed your cursor - it will be seen exactly where you currently are and at the place you currently work: The cursor might be changed for approximately 10 seconds or so, and then turn back to its normal state. Possible other options: ability to pick any of emoji library ability to extend time of change

Password Protection by Default when sharing public boardsDelivered

Hey :) The suggestion is to have an option to set any board shared via link (as a Public Board) to require password protection. Right now we rely on board owners remembering to add a password when sharing, which is prone to human error and share public links with Guest instead of password protected ones. This could either be:Default password protection required when sharing board through public link for all Miro users + option to skip password Admin toggle option to require password protection for boards shared publicly What do you think? Would this be helpful to you as well?

Miro basicsDelivered

Hi,When I share the board, the current weath of options and possibilities is proving overwhelming to most people I work with.Would you consider giving the option to ‘go back to basics’ where the board is only for stickies and maybe drawing? Or launch a version of ‘classic miro’, yes, it’s just like world of warcraft ;), something from your first months of existence, that was enough for me to fall in love with your product.Anyway, what I’m asking for - give us an option to go to basics, an infinite, real-time-whiteboard ;)Cheers and thank you for making a great product.

Raise Hand and other instant reaction icons for live workshop eventsDelivered

LIke many others here, I am primarily using Miro as a tool for running live online workshops with Zoom. In order to indicate that they would like a turn to speak up, my participants must take their attention away from Miro, go back to Zoom, and find the Zoom Participant list to click the “Raise Hand” icon. This is way too many steps! it is already difficult to get natural live participation in a workshop without requiring several extra steps just to speak up. My request is that workshop participants get a way to do instant reactions, right within Miro. We certainly need “Raise Hand” but it would also be great to have “Yes”, “No”, "Not sure”, “Applaud”, “Thumbs Up.”

Ability to enable / disable 'download' button for guestsDelivered

ABILITY TO DISABLE “DOWNLOAD” BUTTON FOR GUESTS / TEAM MEMBERS / OCCASIONAL TEAM MEMBERS THE ABSTRACT It would be great to have a possibility to manage access to a “download” image option: THE PROBLEM Currently all users (guests - even viewers, occasional team members, full team members) are allowed to download any graphics file we have uploaded to the board. Many times we and our partners use copyrighted or licensed graphics that cannot be either copied further or shared in its original form to a third party. When we use Miro now, any user with access to the board can download the file. I know that a malicious person can make a screenshot of an image, but there is a huge difference between taking a screenshot of scaled graphics and downloading a full, original image (often with full opacity, when PNG). THE (POSSIBLE) SOLUTION It would be great to add board-level option to manage a setting which kind of user can access the “download” button, for example: Download images? no access team members only team members, occasional members guests, team members, occasional members Or a list of checkboxes with each category to pick its own combination. Example how to put in current layout:

Background music in collaborative sessionsDelivered

When in brainstorming mode, people tend to be very quiet, it would be great if we can trigger music the same way we use the timer.

Making 'sharing custom templates with company' available for Consultant-planDelivered

At the moment the option ‘sharing custom template with the company’ is only available for ‘Enterprise-customers’. However,… we would love to have this option available for the Consultant-plan! It would be even nicer to have the ability to let the admin choose which teams can use specific custom templates.

Paste from Excel / Google Sheets selection as a table in MiroDelivered

Right now it creates a Post-it for each cell, which means I either have to manually fill out each cell in Miro, or take a screenshot of the excel table. Stretch goal would be sheets integration where I can reference a miro table from Sheets data that is updated automatically.

Better Slack UnfurlingDelivered

We constantly share Miro links in Slack. I find myself often removing the unfurled Miro link because it doesn’t provide value. The Slack unfurling would be a lot more useful if it provided the name and description of the Miro document.

Share boards to view AND copy (not edit)Delivered

I am regularly creating boards, templates, canvases for industry practitioners to use (mostly readers of my blog). So far I have been using Google Apps where this is easy, by sharing a link that user can access to VIEW and COPY the document. It would be nice to have a similar feature on Miro, as otherwise Miro is a highly limited walled garden where the community cannot easily exchange templates and boards across organisational boundaries.

Lasso tool for multi-select optionDelivered

There are some curcumbstances - like when you handwrites on some pdf page on Miro and you need some particular pieces to be selected and copy-pasted. I know about shift + Click function, but if you didn’t lock bottom piece of pdf paper, so shift function would juct move that background paper instead of multi-select option. So it would be very nice to see some tool like lasso multi-selection or not-permanent-frame-function to just select some things in the middle of hand texts (or other objects) on the background pdf paper and then do whatever you want with it.

Highlighter penDelivered

When I work on texts (from pdf, or screenshots, or web pages imported into my Miro board), I would like to be able to highlight, on the fly, words or phrases. It would be enough to be able to set the transparency of the drawings made with the pen, as it is already possible with shapes, so this feature seems easy to implement. And it would really be very efficient, especially for commenting live texts to students, as it is my case.

Apple pencil support on iPadOS / Drawing without unwanted marks and dots / Palm RejectionDelivered

When I using Apple Pencil in Miro App on iPadOS, the screen reacts with my hands and fingers so that I couldn’t write well on iPad. I feel Miro App is the best Application for remote jobs. So, I’m sad about that point. I wish Miro support Apple Pencil.

Integration with Adobe XDDelivered

We love MIRO and the way it works with Sketch. But we are exploring Adobe XD for our next move and it would be awesome to have a similar integration/function with Adobe XD too. Hence the question.

Stronger lock / Lock objects by roleDelivered

It would be nice to have more stronger lock which cannot be unlocked by holding the button. Something that needs owner access to unlock or something. This will help organize a board better when working with a lot of members in the team.

Mind map moving a node link on tabletDelivered

Make it possible to move a node’s join in mind map on iOS (or any tablet). All of the online resources completely skip the fact there is no keyboard to hold down the control key when using an iPad etc, so the documented method of being able to move nodes around so that they change their join to a different child or the parent node appears to be impossible on a tablet? There needs to be a touchscreen button added say, or some option, to enable the same functionailty as if a keyboard CTRL key was held as you drag. Without it a key feature of mindmap is impossible on a tablet.

Disable object unlocking for guest editorsDelivered

THE ABSTRACT It would be great to have a possibility to enable / disable “unlock” option by board owner for different type of users - guests / occasional team members / team members. THE PROBLEM Currently all users with edit permissions can unlock any objects that were locked by board owner. It sometimes can wreak havoc on the collaboration flow, pre-set template or background images - for all of board users - especially when the trainer wants the flow to be a fluid, step-by-step experience for all the users he is having a workshop with. THE (POSSIBLE) SOLUTION Adding a board-level option to manage a setting which type of users can unlock locked objects. It might be, for example: Unlock objects no access team members only team members, occasional members guests, team members, occasional members or a list of checkboxes for each user category to get a fully customizable setting. Example how to put in current layout:
