Microsoft along with its refreshed Surface Pro line-up, also gave us a glimpse of its new app called Microsoft Whiteboard for Windows 10 recently. While the company hasn’t confirmed as to when the app will be available for use, Windows Blog Italia has reported a leaked video that gives away key details regarding the app.

It appears like Microsoft Whiteboard for Windows 10 is going to include the following features: automatic inking to shapes and tables, the ability to view angles on different shapes draw by users, Microsoft’s Bing search engine and the ability to write anything inside the search box using stylus. The app also offers basic brushes with different strokes of thickness and the ability to directly pull images from the web. The Verge claims that the app in the video is the ‘Education Preview’ version.  

At the time of the launch, Microsoft announced that the app will be made available for Windows 10 devices later this year. The company also claimed that all the laptops running Windows 10 S will be priced as low as $189 and will be arriving this summer. The new cloud-based variant of Windows 10 is targeted primarily towards the education sector and is designed to run on low-end devices as well.
