Mobile App

The Scholantis mobile app is a mobile device app for working with portfolios and other areas of the portal on your tablet or smartphone. Everything you can do on the portal can be done in this app; plus you can record audio directly into portfolios.

 

 

Mobile App Navigation

The navigation on the mobile app works much like the desktop site, with the exception of a new top navigation bar.

The icons can be used as follows:

Getting Started Using the Mobile App

The mobile app offers many of the same features as the portal site itself, with the added bonus of being able to create voice recordings from within the app itself. 

The app requires your school district to use ADFS authentication. Not using ADFS yet? Get in touch to learn how it works with the mobile app. ADFS also allows you to integrate email and other tools like Office 365 for Education, OneDrive, or G Suite for Education.

To download and launch the app:

  • Download the Scholantis app from the App Store (IPhone or iPad) or from Google Play (android / tablet).
  • Launch the app by tapping the Scholantis icon.
  • Choose your school district from the list of Schools.
  • Login to your account with your unique username and password.
  • Tap the SIGN IN button to login. The app will remember your preferred school and login next time you open it.

If you have an  iPad, tablet, or smart phone, you can use our mobile app to create voice memos or other audio recordings right in a student portfolio. You can also Record Audio and Video with the Mobile App. To learn more about the Mobile app, see the topic, Mobile App.
