If you are using a Chromebook or an iPad to take a LockDown Browser exam, it is important to contact your instructor to ensure the settings for the exam will permit you access from these devices. If the Chromebook/iPad settings are NOT enabled for your exam, you may not be able to access the exam. Connect with our Zoom Consultation Space for more help and assistance.
