A versatile workspace — at your desk or on the go!

The Darkboard iPad drawing stand accommodates three different setups:

Easel Setup

Perfect for drawing or writing, this setup lays your Darkboard at a comfortable 30-degree angle.

Vertical Setup

Flip your Stand around to set up your Darkboard in a vertical, desktop-like position. This is great for using your iPad as a primary or secondary monitor while working.

In Your Lap

Use your Darkboard on its own to rest comfortably in your lap. Great for drawing on the couch or in bed!

An iPad stand designed for drawing and notetaking

Comfortable

No more hand cramps! Darkboard mimics steering wheel ergonomics to minimize fatigue during long drawing sessions.

Versatile

Darkboard has three setup options: Use the Foldable Stand for the Easel or Vertical setup, or use it solo on your lap!

Lightweight 

Darkboard weighs less than the box it’s shipped in! It’s rigid enough to provide support and durability, while maintaining a lightweight profile.

Secure

The protective iPad cradle is made of polycarbonate, one of the strongest plastics available. Your iPad fits snuggly in the cradle so it won’t fall out.

Take the pain out of drawing

Crafted from Leatherfoam Cushion: Darkboard is made from premium EVA that balances sturdy rigidity with supportive cushion. It’s the same material used in high-performance sports equipment.

Grippy surface texture: The subtle grainy texture gives a comfortable grip while you’re seated in place or on the move.

Ergonomic grooved handles: Angular grooves closely mimic the ergonomics of steering wheels designed to minimize fatigue during long drawing sessions.

Just what I’ve been looking for!

I love to sit in comfy places to draw on my iPad and I’ve been searching for a lightweight holder. This is perfect. I can use the darkboard with or without the stand. Both options are super lightweight and very comfy. My daughter teaches an iPad art class to kids at her local library and she saw my darkboard and fell in love. I just sent her one of her own for her birthday!

My only complaint is that the neoprene case is so snug that I have to wrestle to get the darkboard in it. It’s such a pain that I never use the neoprene case, which is a bummer because I’d really like to!

AWESOME!

I didn’t have too high hopes for a plastic board or a huge case for the iPad. Boy was I wrong, This has become an essential pice of kit when drawing and doing CAD work. It’s just designed really really well

Darkboard

I originally gave a 3 star review because my Apple pen would not fit in the slot and would not charge. I have sense been given directions on an easy fix for the situation and now would love to give a 5 star review. Love the product and the support.
