If your school is larger and your hallways are rather busy, you may have the need to scroll through the list of  passes to find a particular pass.  Click and slide on the passes.  When you see the scroll bar, you will be able to scroll through the list of passes on your screen.  This functionality works in both the List View and the Tile View.  (Please note: The scroll bar functionality exists for iOS devices.  For Android devices, the scrolling functionality does work without a visible scroll bar.)

Approve Student-created Passes

When a student creates a pass from the student app or web application, the pass will appear in the same format as it does on the Pass web application.  For teachers on the mobile App, the student-created pass will appear white (Awaiting approval).  On the student screen, the pass will be red until approved or canceled.
