Exam Browser 2023 - Exambro for Android

App snapshot

Exambro — Exam Browser (2023) is a free Android app created by R‑DEVELOPER to enforce exam integrity. It provides a locked-down environment for both online and offline tests, supports QR-code workflows, and offers a nearly full‑screen presentation (about 98% of the display).

Primary protections

• Prevents students from taking screenshots or recording the screen during an exam.
• Stops users from switching away using navigation controls or launching other apps while the session is active.
• Turns off device notifications for the duration of the test to avoid interruptions.
• Forces a fresh login if the app is exited and automatically refreshes the session to ensure continuity.

Advanced controls and recent additions

• Ability to restrict internet access for individual apps so only approved services remain online.
• Detects apps that float over the screen and can block those floating windows from interfering with the exam.
• Blocks incoming SMS/messages to avoid content leakage via messaging during a test.
• Can actively block known floating utilities so overlays cannot circumvent protections.

How it’s typically used

Exambro is suitable for in‑person tablet or phone exams as well as remote assessments. You can deploy it when you need:

• a QR code check-in or exam launch workflow,
• a fullscreen testing experience with minimal UI distractions,
• and consistent session control so examiners can prevent shortcuts or app switching.

Platform support

• Compatible with Android devices running Android 6 (Marshmallow) and above.
• Includes support and compatibility testing for Android 13 and later releases.

Notes for administrators

• The app is distributed at no charge and is intended for educational settings that require device lockdown.
• Review device compatibility and any required permissions before wide deployment to ensure the intended restrictions function as expected.
