MimioMobile vs DAC App

With the MimioMobile™ application for mobile devices, classrooms using MimioStudio™ software can get the most from their iPads and iPhones by using them for truly collaborative learning and ongoing formative assessment. Every student with a mobile device can interact with the lesson displayed on the interactive whiteboard, for a truly collaborative learning environment. Collaborative learning and formative assessment have never been more easily implemented or more affordable for schools. Simply purchase an annual MimioMobile license for the teacher’s classroom computer or laptop, and every mobile device in the classroom can download the app – for no additional fee. Teachers can use the MimioMobile app to control their interactive whiteboard and display lessons in MimioStudio classroom software from anywhere in the room. They can easily hand off control to any student using a mobile device equipped with the free MimioMobile app. Using the Collaborate feature of MimioStudio software, students can work interactively in small groups on their mobile devices, and their work will be displayed on the interactive whiteboard in multiple collaborative spaces. The MimioMobile app can also be used by students for multiple choice and open-response assessment. MimioStudio software customers who already have MimioPad™ wireless pen tablets can use iPads and iPhones with the MimioMobile app at the same time. Current users of MimioVote™ assessment can also use their mobile devices with the MimioMobile app together for assessment.

The Digital Audio Capture (DAC) app is a free app developed by College Board and ETS to use for recording students’ audio responses for the AP Music Theory Exam and AP French, German, Italian, and Spanish Language and Culture Exams. This app has been developed to simplify the recording process for students and proctors, utilizing current technology that is intuitive to most students. It streamlines post-exam tasks for school staff by directly uploading student audio files after recording. School staff will follow the instructions in the 2025-26 AP Exam Instructions book to administer an exam using the DAC app. NOTE: The DAC app is limited for use on school-owned and -controlled iPad tablets (iOS 15.0 and above). Schools must update to the 2026 version of the DAC app; previous versions of the app will not work in 2026.
