Common technical issues include the Bluebook app not launching, sign‑in difficulties, missing or incorrect accommodations, device freezing or crashing, internet connectivity problems, and issues with submitting answers.
A Technology Monitor is a trained staff member at the test center who assists with technical problems that arise during the test, helping you resolve issues on the spot.
If your device fails mid‑test, immediately notify the proctor or technology monitor and request a device swap if a backup is available; note that swaps are not performed after the testing time has expired to avoid losing your answers.
Report the problem to the proctor or technology monitor right away; they will document the issue and, if necessary, escalate it to the test coordinator or College Board for further action.
Additional resources include the SAT Student and Parent Inquiry Form and the Digital SAT Help Center.
