How to: Access Savvas BouncePages Connection

This article will review how to access Savvas BouncePages on mobile devices to play multimedia from selected pages in Savvas textbooks.  

You can access the free Savvas BouncePages from any mobile or electronic device with a camera to play multimedia from kindergarten math through middle school geometry via Savvas textbooks. 

Savvas BouncePages is a free tool that allows you to use any technology to snap a picture of a pre-tagged page in the Student Edition or Additional Practice Workbook. It then launches engaging, interactive video animations that bring your textbook pages to life.

The BouncePages app will no longer be available on the Apple Store. Users should now open BouncePages directly from any browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari) by following the steps below:

Follow the steps below to open BouncePages.

1. Navigate to bouncepages.savvasrealize.com
2. Aim the camera on your device so that the top of the page is easily viewable within the scanning window on the screen.
3. Tap the camera icon.
4. Wait for the scanning process to complete.
5. Tap the button to view the video or animation.

When you use BouncePages, the image is first uploaded with a back-end controller API. In slow connection, low bandwidth environments, persistent "Matching content not found" or various timeout-related messages may occur. The success or failure is largely dependent on the upload speed. Environments with less than 2 Mbps may not be reliable for the BouncePages service.
