Montessori Compass is a web-based application, which means there’s nothing to download or install. It works seamlessly on any device with an internet connection and a modern web browser—including laptops, desktops, tablets, and smartphones.
Tablets in the Classroom
Many teachers find it especially convenient to use an iPad or other tablet during the school day. Tablets offer full access to Montessori Compass via the web browser:
- Safari or Chrome are recommended on iPad
- Chrome is ideal on Android tablets
One key advantage of using a tablet is the ability to take and upload photos in real time. With the Quick Add feature, teachers can easily document lessons, observations, and tracker updates—attaching photos directly from the classroom environment.
This makes it faster and more efficient to:
- Capture classroom activity as it happens
- Communicate with families
- Share photos using the same workflow

Coming Soon: Staff Mobile App
We’re currently developing a dedicated mobile app for school staff, which will make it even easier to use key features—like Quick Add—on your phone. This app will be available for both iOS and Android, offering a more streamlined experience than using the mobile browser.
