Pre-Populating domain on iPad login

[Greg3]

Good morning,

We have a bunch of shared iPads used by students. One of the biggest delays in the classroom is waiting for the students to fill in their full school email address, as it's fairly long and there is normally a fair few that spell it incorrectly. 

Is there any way we can pre-populate the domain, like the example below used in Chromebooks?

This will make it far easier and quicker for students to be able to log in.

Many Thanks

Are you not using Apple School Manager? If you are and have it setup correctly, the iPads should have a list of the classes and the students are able to just pick out their name without having to enter their emails.

Hi Walkman,

Sorry to resurrect this post, I thought I had replied before but I obviously never did! I work in a fairly large secondary school with over 500 individual classes, and the iPads are booked out to whoever needs them. We are set up on Apple School Manager, but it takes so long for the students to find their class, that it's actually quicker for them to type in their email address.

If there isn't a way of pre populating the domain, is there any other solution you can suggest?

Thanks alot for your help.

Hey Greg,

you're in luck, because iOS 16 will allow us to pre-populate the domain.
