If you are a school in Canada, the U.S., or U.K., you may place an order using our separate EDU ordering system. First step is to submit an online request for quote as follows:

2. click on the orange oval at the top right hand corner 'Request a quote';
3. fill in the requested information.
An electronic quote will be emailed to you within 24 hours. Using the quote, you'll be able to place an order using a purchase order or credit card, according to your preference. PLEASE NOTE: the quote may end up in your spam folder, so please check there.
Possible that camera access wasn't enabled at the time the game was downloaded. Suggest:
1-close out all background apps that are running
2-uninstall and reinstall the Osmo app in question
3-restart the iPad
Be on the lookout for the question about 'enabling camera access' and answer yes to that when prompted.
If you placed your order with our EDU team from a quote, please contact schools@playosmo.com for assistance.
If you placed your order on our shopping page (https://playosmo.com/en/shopping/), you can generate and view your itemized receipt through your order status page. Please follow these steps, replacing "YOURORDERNUMBER" in the URL with your order number.

2. Click "Unlock personal information" and enter the email address and the postal code associated with your order.
3. Under the shipping address, there is an option to "view a printable receipt for this order." Click on that link to view and print your Osmo receipt.

If, for any reason, you still have a question about adjusting the inserts, please reach out to support@playosmo.com for assistance.
