Navigate and present scenes in your Freeform boards on iPad

You can save scenes—saved views of your board—to organize your boards into sections, then quickly navigate and present those parts of your board to others. Scenes let you identify and label content so you can present your board, section by section, and rearrange the order in which you present your board. You can also use scenes to identify the parts of your board you want to print or export as a PDF.

A Freeform board with the Scene Navigator open and several saved scenes.

Save scenes

  1. Go to the Freeform app on your iPad.

  2. Open a board with content.

  3. Zoom and scroll until you frame the part of your board you want on the screen for your first scene.

  4. Tap the Scenes button.

    The Scene Navigator opens at the bottom-left of your board.

  5. Tap the Scene Navigator button, then tap Add Scene.

  6. Repeat these steps until you capture all the scenes you want: Frame your next scene, tap the Scene Navigator button, then tap Add Scene.

    Tip: Don’t worry about saving scenes in order. You can edit their sequence after you capture them.

    • Tap the Back button and the Forward button to move between scenes.

Note: What you (and others) see may depend on what device is being used to view the board and how it is positioned. For example, for iPhone and iPad, portrait or landscape mode may affect how the scene is framed.
