Close to Great

ADBP

I just started my second round of grad school and am attempting to go paperless. Looking at the description and reviews I hoped this was the app that would help coordinate my crazy schedule and allow me to organize classes, assignments, and exams accordingly. It’s SO close to great, but not quite there. Pros: Allows to build color coded courses with classes, assignments and exams inside. Lists assignments in order by date for multiple classes. Syncs with my other calendars so I can see all events at one time from the overview screen. I wish it could... Show EVERYTHING on one screen. Currently you have to click to the “assignments” / “classes” tabs to see the event listed. There’s not a way to see everything all together on the given day which is frustrating. I’m better off using a regular old calendar app with color coded tags to signify the class. Add additional notes to everything I input. For example when I add a “class” I can’t add any additional information. It just says “Class” with the date and time. I’d like to be able to enter the title of the class AND the agenda for that class. Possibly even be able to add a link to where my notes are resources needed for that class. (Seems like a really simple additional ‘notes’ field - however it’s not there) Sync / Sharing ability with other apps especially for notes - such as Evernote, OneNote, Google etc. My opinion, not worth the $2.99. Save your money and use tags in a traditional calendar app. If you’re looking for apps that also have “ToDo” right in the calendar, I recommend Fantastical or Pocket Informant.

Calendar not working

I tried to sync it to my iPad native calendar, followed all the instructions and FAQs, it shows up in the list of subscribed calendars, but my assignments do not show up or have the reminders I need. I’m sure it used to work, a long time ago when I bought this app, but now anymore. Reminders for assignments are what I need, deleting this app.

Final Grade

I love this app and even tell my friends to use it as well. However, I noticed that the final grade feature, which I’ve been able to use for the past 2 semesters, is now missing. If you could please bring back this feature, it would be much appreciated. Edit: Oh ok! Yes I see that now, my mistake ?. Great app!

The Best

Best app ever, can't go to university without it :)

Pretty good class tracker

This app does almost everything I need it to do. My biggest request would be for the program to allow me to choose whether classes are graded according to percentages or points on a course by course basis.

Adjusting Grade Scales for different classes

The app works fine, and I think it's great! However, I think there should be a different grading scale for each class

Very helpful for assignments could do better on grades

I love using this to remind me about classes and homework assignments it would be really nice if it could also tell your grade breakdown if you use weights so you can see what categories you need to improve more... also it would be nice if it was cheaper to also get it on my computer cuz I already spent money on this one

“Parting is such sweet sorrow...”

Alas, my education career is coming to an end. After using the free version for a time and moving to the pro not long after, it is time to say goodbye to one of my most favorite and most loved apps. This app helped me all the way from the end of my junior year of high school through the end of grad school here in a couple weeks. Can not recommend this app enough for someone who is as scattered brained as I am, who would write things down on scraps of paper and promptly lose them. 10/10 app

Great, but with a fatal flaw

buzzerbar

I tried out a lot of homework apps; in fact, i think i downloaded them all, tried them out, and then quickly deleted. But, I stuck with this one and have been using it all semester. It’s very handy; I really appreciate having all of my assignments for the whole semester already calendared and easily accessible at all times. However, I have had one major problem and won’t be using the app anymore because of it. I use this primarily to keep track of my assignments, and rarely put things into the calendar. So, I don’t usually view the calendar page; I forget. Twice, though, I’ve forgotten to attend something I wanted to attend because I failed to regularly click the calendar page. There should be a view (it should probably be the MAIN view/home screen that combines all of your upcoming assignments, exams, AND calendar entries — you should be able to see everything for your week on one screen. If you enter all of your exams for the semester into the calendar under the “new exam” option, they will appear in your calendar, but there will be no mention that you have a test next week in your list of upcoming assignments due/study plan. Yikes. I hope the developer will consider creating a consolidated view, at least as a current/upcoming week combined schedule/assignment plan. It should include all exams, events, and assignments, in my opinion. Otherwise, this is a great app.

Why???!!

I was always rating this app 5 stars, but now my rating is two stars only! That is because I requested a countdown feature for exams since 6 months, and till now they say that they aren’t planning to add this feature in the future!!!!!!! I don’t know why such an important feature like this is ignored by them, in the same time they are developing useless features like the Grade Graph! I hope the countdown feature move into development ASAP. And I don’t think that is request a lot of hard effort to implement. Please I don’t want to switch to another alternative app.
