Following from the use of a calculator, it has often been reported that students attempt to use their smartphones in exams. 

Several popular cheating methods are:

  • Using the device to store or take images of notes before the exam, and reviewing them covertly;
  • Relaying information via Bluetooth in conjunction with an earpiece;
  • Taking an image of the paper to help friends who will take the exam later on.
