How to Use the SQA MyExams App to Stay on Track for Exam Success in 2025

June 12, 2025

If you’re preparing for your SQA exams in 2025, there’s one tool you should definitely have on your phone — the SQA MyExams app. Designed by the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA), this free app helps you keep track of your exam timetable, manage your revision, and stay organised during the busiest part of the school year.

At Central Tutors, we always recommend the MyExams app to our students as part of a smart revision strategy. In this blog post, we’ll break down how the app works, how to get the most out of it, and how it can help boost your confidence leading up to exam day.

What is the SQA MyExams App?

The SQA MyExams app is a mobile application that gives students instant access to the official SQA exam timetable, including personalised notifications, key exam dates, and subject-specific details.

Whether you’re studying for National 5, Highers, or Advanced Highers, the app makes it easy to:

  • Create a customised exam timetable
  • Get reminders before each exam
  • Add notes about location, equipment needed, or personal reminders
  • Access up-to-date SQA information on the go

Why Students Love It

Here are just a few reasons why students across Scotland are downloading and using the MyExams app:

Reduces stress – Having your full exam schedule in one place removes uncertainty.

Saves time – No more flipping through paper timetables or school emails.

Helps with planning – You can build your revision schedule around your actual exam dates.

Custom reminders – Set alerts days or hours before an exam so you’re always prepared.

How to Download the MyExams App
