ShowMe

ShowMe is a digital education platform and mobile application that enables users to create and share short instructional videos built around an interactive whiteboard. It was developed by ShowMe, Inc. and released for the iPad in the early 2010s, making it one of the early mobile tools for recording lessons.

A ShowMe lesson typically consists of a whiteboard surface on which the creator writes or draws in real time while recording narration. Users can import images, add text and audio, and arrange elements to explain a concept. Once finished, the lesson is published to the ShowMe library where others can view, comment, or save it for later reference. The platform supports privacy options, allowing teachers to share content with a class, a group, or the public.

ShowMe is used primarily in education, by teachers, students, and homeschoolers, for explanations, problem-solving demonstrations, or language practice. It supports classroom use through teacher accounts and features that facilitate assignment and feedback workflows, such as sharing lessons with learners and organizing content by topic or course.

The service is designed for mobile devices, originally focusing on iOS, with viewing and creation tailored to touch-based interactions. As a library of user-generated lessons across subjects, ShowMe emphasizes self-paced learning, peer discovery, and visual explanation as a complement to text-based resources.
