What is Inscriti?

Inscriti is a private app schools use to keep parents, teachers, and admins connected. It replaces group chats, email blasts, paper notes, and one-off texts with a single, organized place for school news.

What can I do with Inscriti?

  • See posts and announcements from your school and your child's classes
  • Message teachers and school staff
  • Get notified about new posts, messages, and important updates
  • See your child's classes and (where enabled) their attendance
  • Request an early pickup
  • View the school calendar
  • Edit your profile and notification preferences

How do I download the app?

We recommend downloading the Inscriti app before you accept your school's invitation — that way the invite link opens straight into the app instead of the web.

  • On iPhone or iPad: Open the App Store. Search Inscriti. Tap Get to install.
  • On Android: Open the Google Play Store. Search Inscriti. Tap Install.
  • On a computer: Open your web browser and go to web.inscriti.com. You don't need to install anything.
ℹ️

If you don't download the app first, the invite link will take you to the web to create your account. Both flows work — but the mobile app gives you push notifications and is faster day-to-day.

How do I get my first invitation?

Your school office invites you. You will receive an email titled something like "You've been invited to Inscriti."

If you don't see it in your inbox:

  • Check your Spam or Junk folder.
  • Make sure your school used the same email you check most often.
  • Contact your school office and ask them to resend the invite.

How do I accept an invitation?

Once you have the email and (recommended) the app installed:

  1. Open the invitation email from Inscriti.
  2. Tap Accept Invite (or the link in the email).
  3. If the Inscriti app is installed on your phone, it opens directly and starts the onboarding. If not, it opens in your web browser to create your account.
  4. Follow the onboarding steps (see below).
  5. Verify your email when prompted.

Once you finish onboarding and verify your email, you're automatically signed in and linked to your school. No separate login step.

Walk through onboarding

After tapping Accept Invite, you'll go through a short setup. Steps appear one at a time:

  1. First name — type your first name. Tap Continue.
  2. Last name — type your last name. Tap Continue.
  3. Email — confirm your email (already filled in from the invite). Tap Continue.
  4. Phone — type your phone number (optional). Tap Continue.
  5. Legal — read and accept the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Tap Continue.
  6. Password — type a password (8+ characters with a number and capital letter). Confirm it. Tap Continue.
  7. Email verification — open the verification email Inscriti sends you, click the link, then return.
  8. Notifications — choose if you want push notifications. Tap Continue.
  9. Profile picture — tap Add Photo or Skip.
  10. Tap Get Started.

You're now signed in and linked to your school. You can start using Inscriti right away.

How do I sign in if I already have an account?

  1. Open the app.
  2. Tap Sign In.
  3. Type your email and password.
  4. Tap Sign In.

How do I sign in with Google?

ℹ️

The Google email must match the email your school used to invite you.

  1. On the sign-in screen, tap Continue with Google.
  2. Choose the Google account you want to use.
  3. The app signs you in automatically.

How do I sign out?

  1. Tap the Settings tab.
  2. Scroll to the bottom.
  3. Tap Sign Out.
  4. Confirm.

What do I see when I first open the app?

You'll usually land on the Home tab, which shows your school's feed of posts. At the bottom of the screen you'll see tabs for the other parts of the app (Messages, Classes, Settings, etc.). The exact tabs depend on your role and which features your school has enabled.
