Setting up the app

Downloading the app

Download the Ocean School iOS app from the Apple App Store.

The free Ocean School iOS app is available for download from the Apple App Store.

This app requires iOS 9.0 or later.
For a complete list of compatible devices, please consult the description in the App Store.

Setting permissions

The first time you open the Ocean School app, you will be asked to give it permission to use your device’s camera.

The augmented reality (AR) experiences in the Ocean School app uses video from your camera so that you can see 3D models in the room with you!

If you click “Don’t Allow” by mistake, you can still give the app access to your camera by changing the settings on your device.

To allow access to your camera:

  1. Open Settings on your iOS device.

  1. Scroll down to see the list of apps on your device.

  1. Tap on the Ocean School app . On your device, it may be called "ROPOS".

  1. You will see a camera icon. Toggle the switch beside the camera to green.

Now the app can use your camera.

If you still have questions, please get in touch.

Ocean School is a joint initiative of Dalhousie University, the Ocean Frontier Institute, and the National Film Board of Canada, in partnership with Ingenium and the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO (IOC-UNESCO).
