Updating Lockdown Browser

Postby Hazelle Gunawan 3G » Fri Dec 11, 2020 11:32 pm

Was hoping someone could give me a quick rundown on how to check for updates for the lockdown browser again? I've already forgotten since last time, haha.

Launch your lockdown browser and in the top right corner there should be a a globe... click on it and check for update.

I don't know if it's the same for everyone but for me once you launch the browser there is a circle with an 'i' in it and if you click on that a screen pops up with several options, one of them being check for newer version. If you're all up to date it will tell you. As a side note I don't think there have been new updates/versions since last time because mine shows that I'm already at the latest version.

The lockdown browser pops up on the search bar on the right side on apple devices, and once you take the test it will pop up for you to use and quit all your open tabs! hope this helps

How often does it update? If its been updated for Midterm 2 i don't have to worry about it for the final right?

Usually you don't have to update it too often I believe, but to be safe I would if there's an update.

For updates, I always make sure to open Lockdown at least two hours before a Lockdown exam just to make sure there aren't any updates pending. I don't think I've ever had to update but it's great to check just in case!

I haven't updated it since last quarter, but it seemed fine to me!
