How to practise TOEIC on your Lock Screen
Lock Screen practice starts a short session of 5, 10 or 20 TOEIC Part 5 questions that you answer directly on your Lock Screen. On iPhone it appears as a Live Activity (answering needs iOS 17+); on Android it is a notification with A–D buttons. You see right or wrong instantly and a score at the end.
Start a session
- On the Home screen of the app, tap Lock Screen (or the Lock Screen practice card).
- Choose 5, 10 or 20 questions.
- Lock your phone. The first question is waiting on your Lock Screen.
- Tap A, B, C or D. After a moment the next question appears; the last one shows your score.
Tap End at any time to stop. A session ends by itself after an hour.
Break-time reminders and auto-start
Turn on study reminders and you get a short break-time reminder; tapping it starts a session straight away.
In Settings you can also turn on Continue on the Lock Screen: after you practise in the app, a 10-question session starts automatically when you leave it.
If it doesn't appear
- iPhone: Live Activities must be on for the app (Settings › New Practice for TOEIC Test › Live Activities). The Lock Screen session needs iOS 16.2 or later.
- Android: allow notifications for the app. On Android 13+ the app asks the first time.
- Open any test once so the app has questions ready, then try again.
