Remind Your Students to Auto-Update Their Apps

[Jacq_Rosenbaum]

While we try to keep instructor software releases to a minimum (especially in the middle of a term!), we regularly release updates to our iClicker student iOS and Android apps. We recommend that students turn on automatic updates in their device settings to ensure they are using the latest version of the iClicker student app and can take advantage of any new features and performance improvements.

Auto-update is a system setting on mobile devices, rather than one found within the iClicker mobile apps. Students can modify the auto-update setting by following the directions for their device below.

iOS

1. Open up your Settings app.
2. Select App Store.
3. Under Automatic Downloads, make sure App Updates is switched on.

Android

1. Open up your Google Play app.
2. Select your account icon.
3. Select Settings, then General.
4. Select Auto-Update apps.
