August 27, 2021, 12:00 am - Data reset Issue for some districts

Our engineers have been working on an issue for the new year reset for districts that may cause some data to linger. Some schools were deleted through the course of the year and had students that are active during the new school year. We are addressing this issue and will be implementing a fix by Sept 2nd or sooner to delete this data so all your students are starting fresh for the 2021 -22 school year. Thank you for your patience.

June 4, 2021, 12:00 am - Apple Updates and iPad External Keyboard Issues

Resolved 6.11.21

While most iPad users are having a great experience, we are getting reports that some students are having difficulties with Typing Agent using their iPads with external keyboards. This is the result of recent Apple updates that are breaking previous Apple settings. Since each keyboard behaves differently, it may be that you need to change keyboard settings. Our developers are actively working on this issue and will have a solution shortly until then here is what we suggest:

Visit: https://support.apple.com/guide/ipad/keyboards-ipad424a3e13/ipados

1. Scroll down to the bottom where it says, "Change how the keys respond on an external keyboard".

2. Increase the Key Repeat interval to Fastest. If that doesn't work, try some other keyboard settings like Slow Keys. Taking steps like these will find what the commands are that will work with the your iPad and keyboards as there are many of varieties.

If you are experiencing issues with the spacebars, here is a link to the Apple Community of engineers where they are discussing this issue and quick fixes for it until Apple gets it sorted out: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/119022

Essentially, you can do 1 of 2 things:

1. Clear the shortcut for Spacebar under the "Full Keyboard Access > Commands" (It tends to be set to Activate by default;) Or
2. Go to Settings > Accessibility > Keyboards > Full Keyboard Access > Commands > Activate > Press Clear

If you try this and none of these solutions work, please email support@typingagent.com and provide us with the following information:

1. The name and username of the student whose experiencing this issue. (If multiple students, then give me more names so I can triangulate.)
2. The name of the affected classroom(s)
3. The browser and version being used
4. The type of computer and external keyboard being used
5. The specific lesson(s) where this occurring (World, Section, Activity or Mountain, Flag)
6. Send a screenshot or video recording of what's happening

Due to the large demand placed on the server from schools wanting to try Yeti Academy, we are reconfiguring the auto transfer feature from TA to Yeti Academy to optimize and balance server load. We have removed the blue Yeti Academy bar from the TA School Admin dashboard until reconfiguration is complete. Auto transfer functionality for schools to try Yeti Academy should resume on 2.29.2021.

January 2, 2019, 12:00 am - End of K2 Mountain

This has been resolved as of 01/14/2019

UPDATE: as of 01-11-2019 the button has been added but a bug was discovered with it. When a student clicks on the practice button it replays the video instead of taking them to the mountain. The engineering team is working on a solution.

It has been brought to the attention of our support team that at the end of the K2 Mountain curriculum after the Yeti celebration users do not have any options to proceed back to the home screen or to the mountain. Our development team is currently working on the implementation of a button that will bring students back to the mountain for additional practice opportunities. Workaround: Please have your students use the bottom right "phone home" button to return to K2 Mountain to continue practicing. (92)
