Description of App

Padlet is a digital canvas to create beautiful projects that are easy to share and collaborate on.

It works like a piece of paper. We give you an empty page - a padlet - and you can put whatever you like on it. Drag in a video, record an interview, snap a selfie, write your own text posts or upload some documents, and voilà! A padlet is born. Make it even more beautiful by choosing custom wallpapers and themes.

Padlet is different from other blogging tools and inspiration boards because it’s flexible. Create a grocery list, a Venn diagram, a discussion board, a group greeting card, a portfolio, or a business plan, all in one app. Used by teachers, students, professionals, and individuals of all ages, all around the world, padlets can be selectively shared and edited among multiple contributors.

Padlet for iPhone takes the Padlet you know and love, and makes it portable. With views tailored for smaller devices and easy-to-use editor buttons, you can change how your padlet looks with a quick tap. Personalize it with selfies. Use our new menu to invite others to view and edit your padlets. Share across social platforms.

Millions of people are already using Padlet for:

I've never used this app, but just yesterday while taking a mini-course through Futurelearn I found a link to their wall. Safari kept going busy on me, so I just typed in the main URL and signed up for a free account. The website looks to be very accessible with VoiceOver, and as a matter of fact VO is mentioned on their accessibility page. I've been rather busy as of late, but I might take their iOS app for a spin at some point.
