Do I need an internet connection or an account?
No. All tests are built into the app and work offline. There is no account or sign-in.
How are scores calculated?
Each section gets a raw score (number correct) and an estimated scale score from 1 to 32. In HSAT scoring mode, the composite is the average of English, Math, and Reading, and estimated HSAT points are the composite × 10 (max 320). These are estimates made by the app, not official scores.
How do I see answers and explanations?
Open 🔒 Parent and enter the parent password. After that, a parent can turn on Face ID unlock for that device.
Can I resume a test after closing the app?
Yes. Your progress is saved automatically. When you reopen the app you can resume or discard the test. The clock pauses while the app is closed.
How do I add or switch students?
Tap 👤 at the top. Each student (nickname only) has their own history, drills, and charts.
How do I turn study reminders on or off?
Open ⚙️ Settings → Study reminders, pick days and a time, and switch them on or off. You can also manage notifications in iOS Settings.
How do I delete data?
Remove a student under 👤, delete single results in Parent mode, or delete the app to remove everything.
