Secure Google Forms testing on Android with locked browser
Locks Android devices into a controlled Google Forms session using screen pinning and navigation guards, keeping students within a single assessment window. Developed by Pak War for classroom assessments, the app pairs exit and application-switching detection with audible alerts and auto-fill violation counts. It targets teachers and schools running formative, summative, or tryout exams on mobile devices, offering a lightweight Android-specific tool to reduce app-switching and monitor infractions during proctored sessions.
What the app does during a Google Forms session
FORM EXAM BROWSER encloses a Google Forms assessment inside a locked browsing environment, using Locked Mode (Screen Pinning) so the device stays on the test page. The app records application switching and exit attempts and can write the number of detected violations back into the form via an Auto-Fill Violation Count, which gives teachers a direct marker inside the assessment response.
How it detects and responds to violations
Detection uses exit and application switching hooks that trigger an audible warning alert when a violation occurs, providing immediate feedback for a supervising proctor. The audible alerts serve as a live indicator during in-person testing, while the auto-fill counter logs infractions inside the form, creating a persistent record teachers can review after the session.
Who it suits and device considerations
The app is intended for teachers and schools conducting mobile assessments and supports formative, summative, and tryout exam types. Because its security features depend on Android system behaviour, the effectiveness may vary by device hardware and OS configuration; the developer notes that supervised teacher presence remains necessary rather than replaced by the app.
Classroom workflows and setup implications
Setup focuses on a simplified teacher workflow: launch the form inside the browser, enable Locked Mode, and monitor alerts during the exam. The app’s lightweight design targets typical Android devices used in classrooms, which reduces setup overhead, but teachers must configure the device and supervise students for the detection features to be meaningful during a proctored session.
Clear operational fit for supervised mobile assessments
FORM EXAM BROWSER is a focused option for teachers who want to limit app switching and record navigation violations during Google Forms tests. It relies on device-level behaviour and teacher supervision, so use in environments where proctors remain present and devices run compatible Android builds. For mobile, proctored classroom exams that need audible alerts and in-form violation counts, the app provides a targeted enforcement layer.
