THE INVIGILATOR APP
Day of the assessment instructions:
• Ensure you are connected to the internet to log into the Invigilator App and scan this QR code.
• If you encounter difficulty in scanning the QR code, you can alternatively enter the Exam Access
Code below the QR code to start the invigilation.
• You can only scan this QR code once. You should NOT finish the invigilation until your entire
assessment has been completed.
• Only scan the QR code when the assessment formally commences.
• The QR code is only scannable for a limited time (15 minutes prior to the commencement of
the exam and 30 minutes once the exam started), and it should therefore be scanned as
soon as possible to start the invigilation before 08:30am SAST, 08 October 2025.
• If you do not scan the QR code in time (i.e. before 08:30am), your script will be flagged for
non-usage of the app.
• If you encounter any problems with the App, you MUST provide us with a screenshot/screenshots
and timestamp(s) that show(s) you accessed the App, attempted to scan the QR code within the
45-minute timeframe (07:45am to 08:30am) and contacted the Invigilator App Helpdesk in time,
followed all the appropriate instructions and had problems with the App that were not your own
responsibility, all as applicable in your specific situation. You also need to send us screenshots of
your communication with the Invigilator App WhatsApp Helpdesk. Only in limited instances, where
your technical issues have been logged by the App as a valid technical issue for which the
responsibility does not lie with you, your script may be considered. If you are not cleared for a
valid technical issue by the App and we do not have your required supporting information
by the end of the 48 hours’ deadline for upload of invigilation data, your marks will be
withheld. Your screenshots must clearly show (depending on your specific situation) e.g.
that you tried to access the app and scan the QR code BEFORE 08:30am and your
communication with the App’s WhatsApp Helpdesk.
• Once the QR code is scanned, ensure your media volume is turned up and place your smartphone
next to you. The Invigilator App will notify you with a notification beep when you are required to
action a request, which you should then perform.
• We recommend that you keep your smartphone on charge for the duration of the assessment.
• If you only have one device, you may access your assessment in the application by pressing the
