Kohima: Nagaland’s Department of School Education (DoSE) has officially launched the SMILE App across all government schools and establishments under its jurisdiction from February 1.
The app, introduced under the Nagaland Education Project—The Lighthouse (NECTAR), aims to enhance school management and system efficiency through advanced digital solutions.
Following the announcement, DoSE has received multiple queries regarding the app’s functionality and has assured users that all concerns are being actively addressed.
The department has also confirmed that the SMILE App has been updated since its pilot phase in May 2024 and urged all users to install the latest version.
To ensure a smooth transition, DoSE has outlined key steps for employees:
- Uninstall any previous versions of the SMILE App.
- Download the latest version from the Google Play Store (for Android users) or the Apple App Store (for iOS users).
