How can I install ClassroomParent on my phone
Add webpage to your smartphone/tablet home screen
The home screen on your smartphone or tablet isn’t just a place where your apps live. You can also add shortcuts to web applications, like ClassroomParent.
iPhone or iPad
- Open Safari and navigate to your schools ClassroomParent site. You won't need to be logged in to complete these steps, but you can be if you want.
- Tap the Share button on the bottom of the page. It looks like a square with an arrow pointing out of the top
- In the list of options that appear, scroll down until you see Add to Home Screen. Tap this. The Add to Home Screen dialog box will appear
- Enter ClassroomParent as the name and click Add. Safari will close automatically and you will be taken to where the icon is located on your iPhone’s or iPad's home screen
- Now just tap the new "app" or shortcut on your home screen, and it will open the website in its own navigation window, independent of what you have open in Safari
Note: If you ever decide you want to remove the website shortcut, you can delete it just like you would any other app on your phone.
Android
- Open Chrome and navigate to your schools ClassroomParent site. You won't need to be logged in to complete these steps, but you can be if you want.
- Tap the menu icon (3 dots in the upper right-hand corner) and tap Add to home screen
- Enter ClassroomParent as the name, then Chrome will add it to your home screen
