Make sure that the student tablet is powered on and connected to the Internet.
In the bottom right hand corner of both the facilitator and student tablets, verify that you see the words “PROD 191” 192” (or later). If you see anything other than PROD or the version numbers do not match between devices, then please update the application. RoboKind Companion App Installation and Update Guide (iPads)
Close the companion app on both devices. (Simply hitting the home button will not close the application)
On an iPad, double tap the home button, then slide up on the RoboKind Companion App to close it.

Start the companion app (with the 3.3 icon) on the facilitator tablet and sign in with your credentials used to sign in to https://central.robokind.com
Start the companion app (with the 3.3 icon) on the student tablet and press the student button. (If you get a request for a pairing code, see How to start a Robots4Autism 3.3 lesson for step by step pairing instructions)
At this point the student tablet will be on the WAIT screen, and the facilitator tablet, within 15 seconds should show the alias of the student tablet.
