Previously there were separate mobile apps for students and instructors. These have been combined into a single Blackboard app, which is available to download for iOS and Android.
If you are an Instructor on a course, you can view course content, regardless of whether it is available to students, and you can carry out a limited range of tasks directly within the mobile app – for example you can post an announcement.
See https://help.blackboard.com/Blackboard_App/Instructors for more information on using the Blackboard app.
How do I get the app?
The app is available for Android, Apple and Windows smartphones and tablets.
To download and log in to the app:
- Search for “Blackboard” in your device’s App Store:
- Android Play Store
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blackboard.android.bbstudent&hl=en_GB - Apple App Store

- Click to install the app.
- When opening the app for the first time, tap on Search for your School, type in ‘Reading’ and select University of Reading from the results.

You will then be taken to the University’s Microsoft sign in page inside the app.
