PREP
Get brainstorming:
- You’ll need some sticky notes that have been written on.
- This is often done in brainstorming sessions or other meetings.
The Process
Step 1: There’s an app for that
- Download the free Post-it app from either Google Play Store (Android) or the App Store (iOS) onto your computer or mobile device.
- Open the app.
Step 3: Present and accounted for
- Photos you take will appear on your screen.
- Green boxes with checkmarks on your Post-its indicate that your Post-it notes have been captured.
- Tap on any Post-its without checkmarks to add them to your board.
Step 4: Customization
- A digital version of your board will appear.
- You’ll now have the option to rotate, change colours, add text to your notes, or click and drag them onto other boards to organize your information.
Design Hack
You can utilize a text recognition function to add more flexibility with content use. Individual notes can be edited and additional notes can be added.
