INTRODUCTION
For a Dyknow Teacher to monitor and control student iPads, the student needs to have and use the Dyknow app, which is a secure web browser.
Due to Apple's iOS limitations, an MDM is required to lock students into our app ("Kiosk / Guided Access").
- Open the App Store on a student iPad
- Search for "DyKnow Cloud"
- Install the App
- Have the student login using their Username, Password, and Customer Vanity (one time unless iPad is shared resource)
- When active, our app on student iPads can now be shown as thumbnails for DyKnow Cloud teachers
