Getting started with the iPad app

A quick guide to installing and logging into the Touch-type Read and Spell app for iPads

Written by Meredith Cicerchia

The TTRS iPad app allows students and administrators to access touch-typing, reading, and spelling modules on the go. Follow these quick steps to set up the app and log into your account.

Setting up the iPad app

  1. Download the app: Open the App Store on your iPad, search for TTRS Online, and tap Get to install it.

  2. Sign in: Open the app and enter your TTRS username/email address and password (for either a teacher/admin or student account), then tap Sign in.

  3. Data sync: Allow a few minutes for the system to sync your account data to the iPad when your first log in.

  4. Access your dashboard: Welcome to your dashboard - from here, users can take modules as usual.

Please note: The iPad app does not contain the fulls interface available on the web app. If you need to manage student accounts, update settings, or make account changes, we recommend accessing your account directly through a web browser.

Switching accounts

Students can log in directly using their username or email address and password. If they accidentally log in using an administrator account, they can easily switch to their own profile without logging out completely:

  1. Tap the profile avatar in the top-right corner and select Switch user from the dropdown menu.

  2. Select the student account from the pop-up window and tap Sign in (allow a few minutes for the data to sync).

  3. A student can take modules from their dashboard. As in the web app, they will be prompted to pick up where they left off and shown a quick overview of their stats.

Once your setup is complete and the correct account is active, learners can jump straight into their assigned modules and start practicing!

For the best learning experience, ensure an external physical keyboard is connected to the iPad before starting any typing modules.
