Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about EduQuick’s compatibility and functionality.

Compatibility

Does EduQuick work on mobile?

Yes, but the experience varies by platform:

  • iOS (Safari): Full support. Follow the specialised iOS Installation guide to set up your bookmarklet.
  • Android: Limited support. Because Android browsers often block bookmarklets, you must manually paste the script into your address bar each time you use it.

Note: Due to these browser limitations, Android support is considered experimental and is generally discouraged for a smooth experience.

Which browsers are supported?

EduQuick is optimized for the following:

  • Desktop: Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Brave, Opera, and Vivaldi.
  • Mobile: iOS Safari.
  • Other: Any browser that supports bookmarklets or manual JavaScript execution may work, but is not officially tested.

Safety & Privacy

Is EduQuick safe to use?

Yes. EduQuick operates entirely within your local browser session.

  • It never sees or stores your Educake password or login credentials.
  • It only interacts with the quiz data visible on your screen to identify correct answers.
  • No data is sent to external servers; everything stays on your device.

Can teachers see that I am using it?

EduQuick itself is invisible to the Educake servers. However, teachers can see your “Time Taken” for each quiz. If you use the Auto-Answer feature to finish a 50-question quiz in 5 seconds, it will be obvious that a tool was used. We recommend pacing yourself naturally.

Troubleshooting

What should I do if the bookmarklet doesn’t run?

If nothing happens when you click your bookmark:

  1. Check Login: Ensure you are actively logged into your Educake account.
  2. Re-install: The “launcher” bookmark may be outdated. Try deleting it and following the Installation Guide again.
  3. Check the URL: Right-click your bookmark, select “Edit,” and ensure the URL starts with javascript:. If that prefix is missing, the browser will treat it as a search term instead of a command.
