Downloading Content for Offline Viewing
The mobile app is a great resource to download course material for networks that may have trouble connecting consistently. To download material for offline viewing, click the downloads tab and tap the cloud icon to download an entire section or a single lesson. You will see a green checkbox badge when your download is complete.
You can access your downloads at any time from the downloads tab.
Please note, you must be online to participate in discussions, assignments, quizzes, and activities that require interactions with course members.
To delete/remove downloaded content, tap on the ellipses menu icon.

Notable Course Settings
The time limit to keep the live session for the mobile app authentication depends on the course inactivity set up for the institution.
By NovoEd default, a session lasts for 2 weeks or until the connection is disrupted by external factors (i.e. network connectivity dropped).
Tablets
The mobile apps discussed above are optimized for use with iPhones and Android phones. When accessing NovoEd from a tablet, a web browser is recommended for an optimized experience. See our article, NovoEd Technical Requirements and Browser Compatibility, on preferred and recommended browsers.
