I love the school planning, grading, and attendance functionality, but I am frustrated that there is no parent control screen (where I could see and manage all students from one place) and it is 100% school tasks only - I still need a seperate day planner for everything not related to classes.

Wonderful. Allows for grades without assignments, simple attendance, easy to add/edit assignments, weighted grading, etc. Was hesitant to pay for an app without a preview, but so glad I did!

This app is incredibly useful.Everything is so helpful and I will certainly share this app within my community. This is so easy to use. Thank you! I figured out how to copy lessons. I love the way it looks, works, and makes my life stressfree. I can enter lessons ahead of time, and keep track of everything right here on my tablet. Thank you!

Great idea, but it does crash occasionally on my older Samsung tablet. I would really, really, really like a student version for phones/tablets so that they could view their assignments and mark them as completed! I like the home page with the coffee cup, etc, but inside the 'book' looks a bit outdated.

Thanks for a great app! For the first time since we started home school in September, I finally feel like I have an all in one planner, organizer and record keeper that will work. It's super convenient and easy to use! Best $5 I've spent since starting this schooling adventure. A couple of little requests to consider for future updates. .. I would love to see a checklist page that displays the days lessons in each subject with boxes to check off as completed. I have separate files for photos, but it would be nice to be able include photos with lessons or field trips. Thanks again.

I have to admit, I've struggled with this app a LOT. The way *I* organize myself wasn't working when I put in the lessons AHEAD of time and it ended up being a cluttered mess. So I just update the grades by adding them in at the end of the day and it makes it MUCH easier for me. I will admit that I hated using this at first cause the aspect of entering lessons was so painful for me but at this point this is working out great while skipping that part. Things I love about the app: * Beautiful interface * Backup/restore ability * Things just *work* no frustration cause something is sticking heavily or hanging up during usage. * Reports functions that can be e-mailed easily * Automatic grade tracking on a single page for an at a glance look * Amazingly fast and helpful support - I had an issue on a HOLIDAY weekend and they STILL replied super quickly and helped me resolve my issue (user error entirely btw) I was really hesitant to pay for the app at first because I don't really pay for many apps, especially without demos. I dived off the cliff on this one based on reviews and with some adjustments and tweaking it's working perfectly for my family with 2 kids .

This app does exactly what it claims. I did have a problem signing in /backing up at first but Paul worked tirelessly until he found the solution. If you are having the same issue, make sure to manually type in your email address then do not tap enter or anything else on the keyboard, tap the smokey area. Do the same with your password. Paul said some keyboards add extra characters or symbols when you copy or use the spell prediction. Their support is FANOMINAL! FIRST RATE!!!

This app is a breeze and very user friendly, however, It bothers me that after entering all the resources used for each subject, it does not then list all materials in the Subject Report. I was hoping it would be helpful in creating our IHIP but now it isn't because it cuts off the list.

Just started using this app and I can see how it is going to help make my record keeping so much easier. This fall we will be part of an alternative learning program that requires submission of progress reports once a month. Now I will have every thing in one place, easy to see at a glance- areas covered, grades/assessments to make my report. Furthermore, I am entering lessons one full month at a time and have the ability to email them to and/or print them for my children to check off as they go. After checking out many assignment and classroom orientated apps, and not finding anything close to this, $5 is a very small price to pay for something as useful and comprehensive as this one.

Best asp out there made for home school parents. I was able to get organized in the days. Let's me keep my schedule and ideas straight. I would highly recommend this ago to anyone but a few changes would be nice. Do attendance on one place for all students instead of having to open up every students profile. Have field trip date be left blank until you are able to lock born date. If you have a lesson that you grade, it is automatically marked completed. Thank you

Solid app, great for tracking grades. Excellent service. Devs got back with me right away when I had an issue (that ended up being my fault, lol) Nice ui. Please try it!

Most amazing homeschooling helper ever. I use it daily. My children are able to open it easily to find their assignments for the each subject or the whole next day. Plus helps keep up with grades. LUV IT !

J70%
by J####:

I reccommend this app to anyone who needs help organizing their homeschool material. This app has helped me keep up with grades and assignments like never before. I will not go back to handwriting my boys lesson plans! My favorite feature has to be creating lessons by "batches". No more rewriting the same words over and over till my hand cramps. I also want to add that I'm a major penny pincher. Paying for any app makes me cringe but this one is simply "worth ever penny"!

This app is nearly perfect! It is intuitive and easy to use, yet powerful. Customer service was fast with a response to aa suggestion for improvement. If you are a homeschooler, you will love this app.

Z70%
by Z####:

I was so happy to find this app because it is intended for a mobile device (it's not just a website that you view on your device), and because the price is so reasonable. It does exactly what I wanted it to do, and it's simple to set up and use, and pleasant to look at. I also received prompt and effective customer service: This app wasn't available in my country when I first found it, but the developers were able to make it available within hours of me contacting them. Thank you again!

I have been looking for an app like this for years. It tracks schedule, grades, and attendance - Much easier than my previous giant binder/multiple website concoction. Support is very quick to respond and gracious. Thank you!

D70%

I just purchased this app today and want to say THANK YOU for creating such a helpful app. First of all, it's SO EASY to learn & use! Secondly, it is BEAUTIFUL, but without a lot of clutter. Third, it has most things you would want in a home school organizer. I love that if I do a lesson with more than one child, I can also easily dublicate, in one step, the same lesson to the other children. The reports are great. The grading is very easy to use. When I emailed the creators with some questions, before purchasing the app, I got a detailed response within the hour! So far I only have a couple of requests: Since I don't keep grades, I write out a more extensive description of the work we do in each subject. I would greatly appreciate a "Title" line and a "notes" box for the lesson plans. The notes box would offer text wrapping, so that I'm not limited to a certain number of characters that just fall off the end. The text wrapping would also show up on the reports as well. And secondly, I need the option to sort the lesson report by date OR subject, as this would allow me to view the progress in each subject of a given date range. Since I don't use grades, this my most useful rep
