Go from a 3D scan to a spatial learning experience in minutes. With any LiDAR-enabled iOS device, you can capture 3D scans that are automatically processed and uploaded to ThingLink, where you can easily add contextual rich-media hotspots. These annotated 3D models can be viewed on any device and integrated into your LMS. ThingLink Capture also powers our Apple Vision Pro experience: the uploaded 3D model is used for object-tracking training, enabling learners to see hotspots attached to real-world objects through the headset.

Seamless Learning Access

Important: this app requires a Jamf managed deployment. Seamless Learning Access is configured and deployed by your school's IT team through Jamf. It is not intended for individual download and will not function on a personal device or without an active Jamf managed configuration. Seamless Learning Access is part of Jamf's Apple Education platform. It keeps students signed in to their school's apps and websites throughout the day, so they spend less time typing passwords and more time learning. Once a student signs in with their school account on a managed iPad, Seamless Learning Access handles authentication in the background for the learning apps and sites their district has set up. There's no extra portal to launch and no separate password to remember. Check your sign-in at a glance by opening the app any time, to see: The account currently signed in Whether your sign-in is active and ready for the day's lessons A simple visual indicator to confirm everything is working before a test, assignment, or class activity If something isn't right, for example, if your session has expired, the app makes it clear, so you know to sign in again rather than discovering the problem mid-lesson. How it works Seamless Learning Access uses Apple's Single Sign-On Extension framework, working alongside RapidIdentity and Jamf to connect each iPad to your district's identity system. Authentication tokens are issued and refreshed automatically for the apps your school has approved, with no manual configuration required from students or teachers. For school IT teams Seamless Learning Access is available only to Jamf customers. Designed for K-12 iPad deployments managed through Jamf. Built primarily for Shared iPad, where multiple students use the same device, each signing in with their own Managed Apple ID while also fully supporting 1:1 assigned iPads. Configuration is handled centrally by your district's IT team, including identity source, app coverage, and session policies. Students and teachers do not install or configure this app directly, it is deployed and maintained as part of the programme. Support For help with sign-in issues, contact your school's IT team or technology coordinator. IT administrators can find deployment documentation and support resources on the Jamf customer portal.
