About the app
ClassLink empowers educational institutions by removing barriers between students and valuable learning resources. Their mission is to create a seamless environment where technology enhances, not hinders, the learning process.
With over 20 million daily users worldwide, ClassLink provides solutions for educators, students, administrators, and IT professionals, ensuring learning opportunities and simplifying tasks like rostering and account provisioning.
The Remote Login app was developed to streamline the login process for students and staff, ultimately improving efficiency and security within educational institutions.
Two primary use cases drove the development of Remote Login:
Teacher Efficiency: Enabling teachers to quickly and easily log in young students (primarily K-2) to their computers, saving valuable instructional time;
Enhanced Security: Providing a secure method for users to access their LaunchPad accounts from shared or public devices without compromising credentials.
Challenges
ClassLink has a long-standing reputation as a trusted partner to educational institutions.
With a strong foundation built over decades, the company has cultivated deep relationships with school administrators and educators through extensive in-person engagement. This approach has fostered a deep understanding of user needs and preferences.
A primary challenge identified through this ongoing dialogue was the time-consuming task faced by teachers, particularly in early childhood education, when assisting students with logins.
This issue was significantly impacting classroom efficiency and instructional time.
Solutions
The Remote Login app has rapidly gained traction since its launch. Within the first year, it facilitated tens of logins per month, and this number has skyrocketed to thousands of monthly logins in subsequent years.
This growth metric underscores the app's value proposition and its positive impact on the educational community.
While primarily adopted by schools and districts across the United States, the Remote Login app has also garnered interest in Europe and Asia, demonstrating its global applicability.
To deliver this solution, our development team leveraged a combination of technologies, including Java, Kotlin, Objective-C, Swift, and Figma. This robust tech stack enabled us to create a user-friendly and secure app that seamlessly integrates with the ClassLink platform.
