Installing the App on the Ipad

Downloaded from the Apple App Store
Authenticate the GoPad using any Admin email and password
Once the Ipad is authenticated, you can login using a teacher, specialist or front desk login which will all have different features. The user must be set up by the Admin prior to logging in

Troubleshooting Installation:

Ensure you have an updated version of the App
Ensure you have set the App settings to “Background Refresh” and turn on “Alerts”
If the first two steps do not resolve your problem, remove and re-install the App from scratch (hold down GoPad App Icon and then “x”), you will need to download and re-authenticate the device
