iOS 15 System Requirement Changes for Lexia Student Programs 2024-2025

Overview

To provide the best possible learning experiences in Lexia student programs (Lexia® Core5® Reading, Lexia® English Language Development™, and Lexia® PowerUp Literacy™), we annually review and update our system requirements. For the 2024-2025 school year, we have updated the minimum required iPad operating system. These changes affect compatibility with some older iPads.

What changed?

For the 2024-2025 school year, Core5, PowerUp, and Lexia English now require iPadOS 15 or higher. This change went into effect in summer 2024.

• Core5, PowerUp, and Lexia English are no longer compatible with these devices: iPad mini 2, iPad mini 3, Original iPad Air.

• iPad users are required to update to iPadOS 15 or higher to use Core5, PowerUp, and Lexia English.

• iPad users are required to download the summer 2024 Core5, PowerUp, and Lexia English iPad app updates.

Why did we make this change?

Lexia regularly updates our system requirements for Lexia student programs (Lexia® Core5® Reading, Lexia® English Language Development™, and Lexia® PowerUp Literacy™) to ensure the highest quality interactive learning experiences. Updates are required to keep pace with browser, OS, and device updates, as well as manufacturer support timelines, and testing and security best practices. Having a clear set of requirements also enables us to better troubleshoot customer-reported issues and develop and test new fixes and features. This ensures program quality, stability, and security.
