See the Locate TestNav Version Number section for instructions on how to know which version you may already have downloaded. To set up the required version of the app, go to: [https://support.assessment.pearson.com/](https://support.assessment.pearson.com/)[ ](https://support.assessment.pearson.com/)display/TN/Set+up+and+Use+TestNav.  \nAn error message will appear when attempting to launch if the required version is not installed.  \nConfirming That Chromebooks Are Managed  \nIf your test site uses Chromebooks, they must be managed by the test site. You can manage your organization's Chrome devices from a single place using Chrome device management.  \nBefore setting up TestNav on Chromebooks that will be used for testing, verify that the Chromebooks are managed. View the See if your Chromebook is managed information at [https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/1331549?hl=en](https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/1331549?hl=en).  \nUsing TestNav with Screen Reader and Touch Screen  \nScreen Reader: TestNav currently offers support for the following screen readers:  \n• JAWS (2019 or later)  \n• NVDA (2020 or later)  \n• VoiceOver (macOS & iPadOS)  \nScreen reader use requires approved ACT accommodation, and students must use ACT's screen reader-compatible test forms  \nTouch Screen: ACT recommends testing on the exact device type prior to administration, especially when touch input is the primary interaction method.  \nSupported Interactions include:  \n• Pinch-to-zoom gestures such as two-finger pinch in/out  \n• Tap-based navigation for answering questions, opening menus, and accessing built-inaccessibility tools like answer masking, line reader, color contrast, etc.  \n• Use of on-screen keyboards, consistent with the operating system's native behavior  \nTESTNAV SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS  \nSystem Requirements  \nInformation about hardware and software requirements, virtual environme","cbCaittZsns0lzsN","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaittZsns0lzsN","pdf",186678,"English","# TestNav Overview\n## Required Version of TestNav\n## Confirming That Chromebooks Are Managed\n## Using TestNav with Screen Reader and Touch Screen\n## TestNav System Requirements\n## Preparing TestNav\n## Using Saved Response and Log Files\n# Overview of ACT Now Online Administration\n## Frequently Used Links\n## Systems for Online Testing\n## Technical Readiness Steps\n# Overview of the PearsonAccessnext Online Administration\n## Frequently Used Links\n## Systems for Online Testing\n## Site Readiness Steps\n## Ongoing Support","[{\"question\":\"What TestNav app version is required for online testing?\",\"answer\":\"The required TestNav app version is 1.15.x.
