Students can view and submit Assessments from a mobile device.
To take advantage of all Schoology features, it is strongly recommended that users upgrade to the latest version of iOS. Schoology only supports the latest 3 versions of iOS. Whenever Apple releases a new version of iOS, Schoology will drop support for the oldest version it previously supported.
Within the native iOS app, you can open an assessment from anywhere that you normally access material, like the course materials page, calendar, upcoming feed, or notifications.

Assessment Experience and Tools
Taking an assessment on larger devices, like an iPad tablet, is very similar to taking an assessment on the web version of Schoology. Use the vertical toolbar on the right side to navigate to specific questions and access your assessment tools.

The assessment experience has been optimized for small screen sizes, so you'll notice some small changes when taking an assessment on a smartphone. The toolbar is collapsed into a drop-down menu and the arrows on the bottom are used to navigate between questions.
Any assessment tools that have been enabled for the assessment can be accessed from any mobile device, regardless of size.
