🧾 The basics
What exactly does OMR Mitra do?
You photograph students' MCQ answer sheets with your phone — the app reads them, checks them against your answer key, and gives you marks, class ranks and question-wise analysis in minutes. Checking 50 sheets of 50 questions takes about 10–15 minutes instead of an evening.
Does it need internet?
No — checking works fully offline. The reading engine runs on your phone itself. Internet is only needed for the one-time registration (OTP), payments, cloud backup and the question bank. In airplane mode, scanning keeps working.
Which phones does it work on?
Any normal Android phone with a rear camera (2018 or newer is comfortable). A decent camera and steady hands matter more than an expensive phone. The app is not on Play Store — download the APK directly from this site.
Can I make my own question paper with it?
Yes — the Paper Builder lets you pick chapters and questions from our bank and generates a print-ready PDF with answer key. The question bank grows over the air; no app update needed. Question-bank access is unlocked for active teachers as it rolls out.
🔒 Privacy
Do student photos go to some server?
Never. Every sheet photo is processed on your phone and stays there. Nothing is uploaded — no cloud AI, no photo storage. This was a design decision from day one.
What student data do you keep?
Only what you type: roll numbers and (optionally) names for your roster — so reports can show names. No addresses, no parent numbers, no photos. See the Privacy Policy for the full honest list.
💳 Passes & payment
How much does it cost?
A 7-day free trial (once per number), then a 30-day pass or a 90-day Season Pack — the app always shows the current price before you pay. The price you see is the price you pay; nothing is auto-debited later.
What happens when my pass expires?
Scanning pauses — that's all. Your tests, results and roster stay safe and fully viewable. Recharge whenever you want and scanning resumes where it left off.
How do I pay?
Inside the app — UPI/card/netbanking via Razorpay. The pass activates automatically within moments. See the Payment Guide for step-by-step help.
Can I use it on two phones?
Yes — your own phones are fine (shop + home, for example). Only one is active at a time; switching asks for one OTP on your number. What's not okay is sharing your account with another teacher — the Fair Use page explains why that hurts both of you.
I changed my phone / lost my SIM. Now what?
Install the app on the new phone, verify the same WhatsApp number, and your account (with pass, if active) moves over. Lost the number itself? WhatsApp us from any number with your registered details and we'll sort it out.
Refunds?
A pass activates instantly, so there's no "return" — but if a payment went wrong or the app isn't working for you, WhatsApp us. We'll make it right, including a refund where that's fair. Details in the Terms.
🖨️ Sheets & printing
Where do the OMR answer sheets come from?
You print them — free, from inside the app (A4/A5 stock formats) on any ordinary printer, plain white paper. One printed stack serves every test of that size; only your answer key changes per test.
Do students fill them like normal OMR sheets?
Yes — one circle per question, blue/black pen or pencil. The app reads fully-filled, ticked and circled marks. If a question has two marks or something unclear, it flags that sheet for you instead of guessing.
Can marks for written (non-MCQ) questions be included?
Yes — for hybrid papers you can set written questions with max marks and type each student's marks after scanning. Reports combine both parts honestly.
🛠️ Troubles
A sheet won't read — what do I do?
Hold the sheet flat, good light, all four corner squares inside the camera frame. The app tells you exactly what's wrong when it refuses (it never guesses). Still stuck? Send us a photo of how it looks on WhatsApp and we'll help.
How do I reach a human?
WhatsApp +91 63526 38389 or support@omrmitra.in. A real person replies — usually the same day. No tickets, no bots.
