- New User-Interface: We completely revamped the BeAxi user interface – kept well-proven elements and added new ones based on your feedback. The basic philosophy of the app remains the same – “The exam is the focus – not the app”.
- Exam review directly on the iPad: The exam review on the iPad has been completely reworked. You can now not only display the exam in read mode, but also, display the correct solutions if desired. With this functionality, there is no more media discontinuity in your exam process and the review can take place entirely electronically.
- Advanced display settings: In BeAxi 11 you can choose if you want to show or hide “points”, “subject” and “question type” of a question – that way, you don’t need to put that information in the question text anymore.
- Improved deployment of exams: Download multiple exams to your devices, or send multiple commands in general. If these commands cannot be processed at the moment, the system checks for a suitable time
frame to execute them. The ExamManager always keeps track of which commands are pending and what the status of each device is.
