Write Now

Practical guide

Install Write Now as an app

On many devices, you can add Write Now to the home screen or desktop so it opens from an icon.

Phone or tablet

iPhone or iPad

Open Write Now in Safari. Tap Share, choose Add to Home Screen, then confirm the name and icon.

Android

Open Write Now in Chrome. Open the browser menu and choose Install app or Add to Home screen.

If you do not see an option

Look for a browser menu item such as Install, Add to Home screen or Create shortcut. The wording varies by device and browser.

Computer

Chrome or Edge

Open Write Now and look for an install icon in the address bar, or open the browser menu and choose Install.

Other browsers

Create a bookmark or shortcut if an installation option is not available.

Open the exercises

Use an internet connection when opening Write Now so the exercises and their media can load.

Shared devices and privacy

Write Now does not require a student account. The exercise overview is stored in the current browser and can be cleared before another child uses the device. Reset local progress or read about learning data.
