Today Apple released an update to iOS 9.  <i>MClass has released this statement regarding the update:</i><br />
<br />
IMPORTANT! iOS 9 Update
On Wednesday, September 16, Apple is releasing its new operating system, iOS 9. mCLASS® assessments are compatible and ready for use with iOS 9, with the exception of mCLASS Beacon and mCLASS:TPRI.<br />
<br />
All mCLASS products will continue to work on iOS 8, as well.<br />
<br />
<b>Warning: Users upgrading their Apple devices to iOS 9 must sync the mCLASS app before upgrading to avoid losing data stored on the device.</b> <br />

I would have your teachers carefully look at the amount of space they have available on their device prior to updating.  This update takes 1.3 GB and the last update was 4.6 GB so if they are still at iOS7 they will need 5.9 GB free to upgrade to the most current iOS and this is almost 1/2 of the storage on the devices.

Schoolnet and iPad iOS Issue

We just learned from DPI that the current version of Schoolnet is not compatible with iOS 8 or 9. If you have updated your iPads to iOS 8 or 9, students will not be able to use them to complete Schoolnet assessments.

Currently, NC is scheduled to upgrade to Schoolnet version 17 in late November, which is compatible with iOS version 8. It is not compatible with iOS version 9.

A new version of Schoolnet that is compatible with iOS 9 is expected to be released in the beginning of 2016 (no definite date yet).

Bottom Line:

If you want to use iPads for assessments in Schoolnet, do not update the iOS to version 8 or 9. After the update to Schoolnet is released in late November, you can update the iOS to version 8.

We will keep you posted!
