Great analysis John. I had no idea that Figjam was so good. Will definitely be checking it out! Thanks.
In Jamboard, you can upload backgrounds that you have previously created in for instance Google Presentation. In this way, you can create just the content you want for a complete lesson in GP and the upload the images to each frame in GJ, and there you have the locked content.
Jamboard have record Figjam no recording to students
Awesome intro to Figjam, especially now that Google has announced the discontinuation of Jamboard.

Thank you! A sad development, but Figjam is a good replacement.
Maybe Figjam is good when you have the time to create content in before hand. But when you teach in the classroom with the students, then Jamboard is so easy and intuitive to create live content whihle you are teaching.
Figjam is not free i paid a tax about 180$ . and doesn't contain camera.
