Log in - iPad, Mac and Windows
Students can start exams in two ways:
- Log in via the web and start the Digiexam client/app from the web without filling in any details in the client/app.
- Launch the Digiexam client/app on your device and enter your email and password.
Log in - Chromebook
The Digiexam app for Chromebook requires you to log in before you can take an exam. As a student, you log in to the Digiexam app with your email address and authenticate with either a PIN code OR with your Digiexam password.
This article covers:
- Logging in with your PIN code
- Logging in with your password in Digiexam
- Getting help with a temporary PIN code from your teacher
Log in with your personal PIN code
Log in to Digiexam on the web to find your PIN code. On the right-hand side of the screen, you will see a section for Chromebook logins.
Click Generate PIN. Write down or remember this code.
Log out of your Chromebook and launch the Digiexam app in kiosk mode. Here you can log in with your email address and PIN code.
Log in with your password in Digiexam
If you have set a password for your Digiexam account, you can use your email and password to log in to the Digiexam app on your Chromebook.
Check "Stay logged in" if you want to save the credentials in the app
Note! If you don’t know your password in Digiexam, you can use the “Forgot password” link to set one.
Find exam
Once inside the Digiexam client/app, exams can be found either by Exam ID or in the Active exams section (group exams), depending on how the exam has been started by your teacher.
Group exams
A group exam is an exam that has been planned for a specific group of students. As a student, you only need to log in, and Digiexam will find the planned exams you are eligible to take. If no exam is visible when you start the Digiexam client, and you know there should be a planned exam, you will get a message under the Active exams section.
To solve this, try the following:
- Check your internet connection
- Check that you have filled in the correct credentials
- Try clicking on the arrows next to Active exams to update the exam list.
Exams with Exam ID
Your teacher/exam supervisor will provide you with the Exam ID. Fill in the Exam ID under the Exam ID section and click on the Find exam button to find the exam.
Start exam
Click on the exam you wish to start under the Active exams section.
Start the exam by clicking on the Start exam button under the Exam details section.
When you click on Start exam you will be asked in a pop-up box if you really want to start the exam. To continue, click on the button Start exam. If you wish to cancel the start of the exam, click the Cancel button to go back to selecting exams.
When the exam is started, you will enter the exam view where you will find the exam questions. Here is a description of what you will find in the exam view:
- Accessibility settings, keyboard input languages (only input languages that are installed on the computer can be selected) and audio settings
- Text to speech
- Student data
- Questions answered
- Hand in exam button (used to hand in the exam and exit the Digiexam client)
- Question menu selector
- Exam information and Digiexam client information. You could get information that this is a locked question sequence. Find more information about that here.

Hand in exam
When you are ready to hand in your exam, press the Hand in exam and exit button in the top-right corner.
When you press the Hand in exam and exit button you will be asked if you want to finish the examination twice. This is a safety precaution made to prevent an accidental hand-in of an exam.
Click on the button Hand in exam button to proceed with handing in the exam.
The hand-in is confirmed by a final pop-up box that says Your exam has been handed in. Press the Exit application button to exit the Digiexam client/app.
It is important that you also Exit application. This is due to that the application locks the other systems on your device and only when you choose Exit application, Digiexam will be closed and unlocks the other functions on your device.
