First-time Setup: How do I set up PowerUp on an iPad?

Overview

This article describes the first-time setup of PowerUp on an iPad.

For information on how students can log into PowerUp on a computer, see How do Students Log in to PowerUp on a Computer?

Applies to: Educators and Caregivers who help students log in to Lexia® PowerUp Literacy®.

These instructions are for educators or caregivers who need to install PowerUp on one or a few iPads. If your school or district uses a management system to manage apps on student iPads, check with your IT department about the best way to make sure that PowerUp is installed on student iPads.

Instructions

  1. Check PowerUp System Requirements to make sure your iPad is ready to run PowerUp.

    The system requirements list the available space needed to download the app. If you are not sure how much space is available on your iPad, look in Settings > General > iPad Storage.

  2. Search the App Store for the PowerUp app.

  3. Select Get or the download icon to download the app (it’s free!), or Update to install the most recent version on your iPad.

  4. Once the PowerUp app is downloaded, open it.

  5. If this is the first time PowerUp is used on this device, you’ll see a screen that says Please Set Up This Device.

  6. Enter the email of a teacher who has a myLexia account.

  7. Once the device is set up, you should see your school or district name displayed on the login screen.
