Pearson designed TestNav to update with minimal effort from our users. TestNav desktop and mobile apps release once a year.
Only two scenarios call for action from our users.
Scenario 1 - Your program uses TestNav mobile apps AND disables auto-update.
Mobile app releases do not require any action, unless your program turns off the auto-update feature.
If your program disables auto-update, you must re-download the TestNav app from the appropriate app store for each of the following OSs:
Android
Chrome
- iOS
Windows (only from the Windows Store)
Scenario 2 - Your program uses TestNav desktop apps.
Desktop apps require reinstallation. You must download the upgraded TestNav desktop app from download.testnav.com for the following OSs:
- macOS
Linux
TestNav Upgrade and Patch Updates in detail
The mobile and desktop apps mentioned in the above section are not TestNav itself. They display the TestNav platform on various devices.
The overall TestNav platform takes two major upgrades a year—in winter and in summer. Pearson coordinates a timeline for pushing an upgraded TestNav version with each program, depending on testing sessions. At the coordinated time, the upgrade pushes to your program without any action required.
Throughout the year, Pearson also pushes minor patch updates to TestNav as needed. These minor updates also do not require any action from your program.
