Getting Started

Qismi runs on iPhone and iPad (App Store), Android phones and tablets (Play Store), and in a web browser. Your account works on all of them — sign in with the same email and password everywhere.

Your account and first sign-in

Accounts are created by your school. Depending on how the school set you up, you will receive either:

• An invitation link (sent by WhatsApp or email, or handed to you). Open it, check your name and role, choose a password (at least 8 characters), and tap Complete Registration.
• A ready-made email and temporary password (common for bulk-imported students, parents, and teachers). Sign in once with the temporary password — Qismi will then show Change Your Password and require you to set your own password before continuing.

Signing in

1. Open Qismi and enter your Email and Password.
2. Optionally turn on Remember me so you stay signed in on this device.
3. Tap Sign In.

Forgot your password?

1. On the login screen, tap Forgot Password?.
2. Enter your email and tap Send Reset Link.
3. Open the email and follow the link. The link expires after 1 hour — request a new one if it has expired.
4. Choose a new password (at least 8 characters) and confirm it.

Protecting the app with a PIN or biometrics

You can lock Qismi behind a 4-digit PIN, with optional fingerprint or face unlock.

1. Open your Profile and find the Security section.
2. Turn on PIN Lock and choose a 4-digit PIN, then confirm it.
3. Optionally enable Fingerprint or Face Unlock to skip typing the PIN.

Important

After too many wrong PIN attempts the app locks temporarily. If you forget your PIN, tap Forgot your PIN? → Logout & reset and sign in again with your email and password.

Languages and Arabic (right-to-left) layout

Qismi is fully multilingual: English, French, Arabic, Tamazight (ⵜⴰⵎⴰⵣⵉⵖⵜ), and Spanish. The language is auto-detected on first launch and can be changed at any time from the language switcher in your profile/settings. Your choice is saved automatically.

Note

Arabic uses a right-to-left layout. When you switch to or from Arabic on mobile, Qismi asks you to close and reopen the app so the entire layout direction can flip correctly.

Notifications

Push notifications keep you up to date on announcements, events, and messages. If notifications are disabled, a banner appears in the app — tap Enable and accept the system permission. You can check the status under Notifications in your profile.

The notification bell in the header collects everything that needs your attention (unread messages, new events, forms, and so on). Tap an item to jump straight to it, or use Mark all as read to clear the badges.

Working offline

Qismi is built for real-world connectivity. When your connection drops you will see a You're offline banner, and the app keeps showing the content it has already loaded — for example your cached timetable and previously loaded announcements.

• Works offline: reading already-loaded content, browsing the cached schedule.
• Needs a connection: sending messages, creating announcements or events, saving attendance, reporting an absence, changing your password, and all AI features.
• When the connection returns, Qismi shows You're back online and refreshes content automatically.

App updates and maintenance

• When a New version available prompt appears, update (or reload, on the web) to get the latest fixes. Occasionally an update is required before you can continue.
• During planned platform work you may briefly see a Maintenance in progress screen. No action is needed — tap Check again after a few minutes.
