Digital hall pass system for classrooms

How it works & FAQ

RESPAWN is a digital hall pass. Students sign themselves out and back in by tapping their name on a classroom screen or scanning their ID badge, and you see who is out, where and for how long, with overdue alerts and a one-at-a-time limit.

How it works

  1. Add your classes and put the pass screen on a spare device or your board.
  2. Students tap their name or scan their badge to leave and tap again when they return.
  3. Watch the live board for timers and overdue alerts, and export history any time.
