Blackboard Mobile

Blackboard Mobile Apps are Free

Students: use the Blackboard mobile app for students

AVOID taking tests or quizzes on a mobile device or on a computer connected with WiFi. 
You can also enter Bb from the free Stan State Mobile App.
If you encounter a test or assignment issue in Bb, contact your instructor immediately.  Provide screen shots as possible.

Faculty: Blackboard Instructor (iOS, Android) now includes Grading 

Mobile apps do not replace Bb on your computer.  
They are best suited for viewing course content and participating in discussions.
Some tools in Bb are available only in a web browser on your computer.  
    Use Firefox or Google Chrome

Notes from Blackboard

• Blackboard recommends using their mobile apps for viewing content and participating in discussion boards. 
• For Android users:  On April 10, 2019, Google Cloud Messaging (GCM) was discontinued. Due to this change, the Blackboard apps migrated to Google’s new Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) in the March release. To maintain push notifications on your device, please update to Blackboard App 4.0 or Blackboard Instructor 2.5.
