This version has been discontinued, but a newer version is available. You can download the newer version by visiting the downloads page. Some software requires a subscription.

Support resources for this discontinued version are available here. These resources are provided “as is” and won’t receive updates from SMART.

SMART Notebook software versions 21.0 and earlier use a technology called TLS 1.0 and 1.1 to protect your data when it’s sent over the internet. However, these older technologies now have some weaknesses that make them susceptible to attacks by malicious agents. To keep your data safe while using SMART software, SMART Notebook is phasing out the use of TLS 1.0 and 1.1 and implementing new protections.

To avoid disruptions and stay up-to-date with the best security practices, SMART recommends updating to the latest version SMART Notebook by July 2024. If you don't update by then, you’ll see an error message that says “Trial period has expired” even if you have an active SMART Notebook Plus (SMART Learning Suite) subscription.
