Educators and school staff use SmartPass on iOS to easily create and oversee digital hall passes in real-time. The iOS app for iPhone and iPad lets staff users:
- create Now or schedule Future passes for students
- approve or deny pass requests
- access Hall Monitor to know which students are out of class on an active pass and where they are headed—with a photo for quick recognition + engagement!
- launch Kiosk Mode for their room when 1:1 devices aren't available
- access their own ID Card
… all while maintaining the school's account settings for room maximums, pass limits, encounter prevention groups, room restrictions, and more. Administrators, teachers, school resource officers, and front office staff all rely on SmartPass iOS each school day.
Kiosk Mode on iOS is a game changer when 1:1 devices aren't available. Front office staff love using it for tardy kiosks. Or maybe the campus doesn't have 1:1 devices. Maybe the algebra teacher doesn't plan to have students on their chromebook. Or maybe it's just the art teacher, band director, nurse, or counselor that needs a kiosk! You can see how useful this may be…
Students can also use the iOS app—at the school's discretion. iPhone access for hall passes can be disabled for all students by account administrators while still allowing access to ID cards.
Hi my school used smart pass for a bit not sure if they still do i graduated but anyway. I wanted to use the bathroom during class one time and I noticed i couldn’t because smart pass puts locks on it and I knew if i didn’t use the bathroom I was going to pee myself. So I ended up just running out of the class and I got it trouble for it. but that’s not all the teachers can put timers on how long you can be in the bathroom for I was giving 30 seconds by one teacher. and half the teacher go sick of smart pass in a week I hope my school changed the way they do things.
Smart Pass - A Great Tracking Device
1SOrchestra
At our school, we started tracking student’s activity in October of this year. Throughout the year, we have been able to track students activity to the bathrooms, media center, and many other places in our school. The best feature is the encountering prevention for students who do not need to be in the bathroom or halls together. The reports are very helpful to teachers so that we become aware of student’s activity that they should not be involved in, especially with other students who also have encountering preventions. I hope we can tweak Smart Pass even more this coming school year.
Great for knowing where my students are at all times even at home!!

Every once in a while I get curious about what my students are doing (I know I’m a little bit of a helicopter teacher🙈) I log on to smart pass on my computer and access my students cameras just to see what they’re doing (especially if they’re cheating on my homework😢) and then I check they’re search history through the new cross platform data tracking just to make sure they aren’t searching up answers on google🤬. Thank you smartpass for allowing me to check what my students are doing at all times!!!
Awful App
juliet_12
I’m a student and this app is a nightmare to deal with. I need it in order to leave after school because I get out a few periods before the rest of the majority of the students and I need to show the security my smart pass. The issue is that it constantly glitches, logs itself out constantly and then says it can’t find your email when you try to log back in, and also doesn’t show my early leave symbol. It used to just take a minute to load the early leave symbol, now it just doesn’t load entirely and I can’t use my phone to leave the school. I need to open my chromebook and try to do it from there, and if that doesn’t work, I’m pretty much stranded at school. This app is too unreliable to be the only way I can leave school. It’s a flawed system.
Keeping SmartPass updated is the best way to make sure you have the latest bug fixes, performance improvements, and features!
