How to reset the app between classes

When using Goosechase on the same device for different classes, it's important to reset the app properly to avoid losing your submissions or points.

If you want to preserve the points/submissions from your last class, do not click 'Leave Experience'.

Instead, have students log out if they have a Goosechase account. If they joined as a Guest, you can reset the mobile and web apps.

Resetting the app/logging out won’t remove any submissions or points from the Experience itself, but it will erase all participation history from the app on that specific device.

If students need to rejoin the same Experience later, provide them with their team’s passcode (found on the participants page in the Studio). Keep in mind that participants can only rejoin profiles in team Experiences, not those set to individual mode.
