How to set Education Perfect up on a phone or tablet
⚠️Update for Current EP Mobile App Users
Note: If you're accessing EP through a browser, there are no changes required
If you or your students are currently using the EP Mobile App, please be aware that Education Perfect is transitioning to a new mobile experience.
We’re moving to a Progressive Web App (PWA) - a faster, more reliable app experience accessed through your browser. This ensures instant access to the latest features and fixes, without needing to update the app.
- ✅If you already access EP through a browser: No changes are needed. You can continue using EP exactly as you do now.
- ❗If you use the EP Mobile App: You’ll need to uninstall the old app and follow a few quick steps to install the new web-based version.
We’ve created a simple guide to help with the transition.
Education Perfect is available as a Progressive Web App (PWA). We are making some important changes to the way Education Perfect can be used on phones and tablets. This article outlines what’s changing, why we’re making these changes, and what steps you can take to continue accessing EP from your mobile device.

What's happening?
We're launching the EP Progressive Web App (PWA) for a faster, smoother, and more secure experience. A PWA functions like an app but doesn’t require downloads. It’s faster, auto-updates, and ensures better security & stability, so you always have the latest version. This means:
✅ The EP mobile apps will be gradually removed from the Android and iOS app stores.
✅ You can continue using EP via your web browser or by installing the PWA (recommended).
✅ Most features remain unchanged, but:
- To run assessments on iPad, please ensure that full-screen monitor mode is turned off. We suggest using iOS Guided Access mode for closed-book assessments.
- For teachers, we recommend using EP on desktop for the best experience.
