How to activate the academy app**   Your reteach academy can be brought directly onto the smartphone of participants with an app icon. With one click, all contents can be accessed more easily on a phone. The contents are accessed via the mobile browser. This means the storage of the smartphone is not affected.   To activate the app, click in the main menu on **Settings** and **Academy**.   After, navigate to the section **App**: ![Academy settings](https://support.reteach.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202024-08-24%20at%2023-37-19-png.png?width=563&height=573&name=Screenshot%202024-08-24%20at%2023-37-19-png.png) Activate the button **App aktivieren** (activate app).

How to best communicate this with participants**   To help communication with participants, we have prepared the following email as example:   Hello \[First Name\], Get the \[Academy Name\] app on your smartphone now! From now on, you can access \[Academy Name\] directly from the home screen of your smartphone through an app. With just one click, it takes you straight to your courses, without needing to open the website in the browser every time. This makes learning even easier and more flexible. But don't worry! The app doesn't take up any storage space on your smartphone, as it directly redirects you to the mobile browser. You can find out how to add the \[Academy Name\] app to your smartphone here: Enjoy the app!
