Using the menu on an iPad or phone, and installing the IMS as an app
Summary
On computers the menu is always shown on the left. On iPads and phones it is hidden behind the burger button (three lines, top-left). The IMS can also be added to the home screen so it opens full-screen like an app.
Instructions
Open and close the menu (iPad / phone)
- Tap the ☰ button at the top-left of the screen.
- Tap a menu item — the menu closes and the page opens.
- To close without choosing, tap the darkened page or press Esc on a keyboard.
Install on iPad / iPhone (Safari)
- Open the IMS in Safari and sign in.
- Tap the Share button (square with an arrow).
- Choose Add to Home Screen, keep the name “Skyworld IMS”, tap Add.
- Open it from the new Skyworld icon on the home screen.
Install on Android (Chrome) or a computer (Chrome / Edge)
- Open the IMS in Chrome or Edge.
- Android: menu ⋮ → Install app / Add to Home screen. Computer: click the install icon in the address bar.
For privacy the app never saves student or fee pages on the device — it always needs an internet connection. Without one you will see a “You are offline” page.
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Resolution |
|---|---|---|
| Menu button not visible on a large screen | Screens 1200 pixels or wider always show the menu. | Nothing to do — the menu is already on the left. |
| “You are offline” page | No internet connection. | Check Wi-Fi / mobile data, then tap Try again. |
| Old look after an update | The device kept an older copy of the logo/styles. | Close the app completely and open it again. |
