  • Great app, which would be even better with a few modifications...

    This is a brilliant app! I use it for all my teaching, as a secondary art teacher. I would only suggest a few modifications:
    (1) I often print rubrics for student feedback. Because I don't have an apple printer I have to individually send each rubric via email to be printed. It would be great if the app had a bulk send function.
    (2) In the final report section it only gives students letter grades for their average grade. It would be great if each assessment included a letter grade as well.
    (3) It would be helpful if rubrics had a "not submitted" option.
    (4) As an art teacher I would like to attach photos of student work to each student assessment. This would be helpful for report writing.

  • Very helpful$

    This is a simple app that helps me keep track of participation work.
  • Best App

    My first look at this app was like, It's probably useless, But it's the best app ever! My students love it as well they like looking and watching me take attendance. it's the perfect grade marking thing. Then I put the grades into the real grade book. I gave his app four stars because they could add a little more

  • Very efficiently designed

    Before reading any more reviews, download it and just TRY it. I never write reviews, but after playing with this app for a week and studying it's features, I am in love. It is so user-friendly and provides graphs and visual reports to help you track attendance patterns. I use it for my job to take record of who shows up and it is so easy to set up and then use. The free version only offers 3 "courses" (groups), but with just those 3, all the features are pretty much unlocked. I have 5 groups so I bought the attendance package. Very useful and I am very proud of my investment.

    THANKS FOR THE BULK COPY OF A TERM❤
    Great!!

    Great update! Thanks for the movable courses. Thanks for the color options. Thanks that the calendar works again in the iphone update. Thanks for the backups. Thanks for the customized name. Thanks for the easy date access and the new sliding bar on the work that reveals notes and reports. Thanks for listening.
    _______________

    Thanks. So easy. I upgraded at $7.99 to place about 11 subjects (actually 44 because of four quarters that I entered --though you can do unlimited.) Great job. I also added a separate Attendance "class" and Awards/Achievements "class" so that I could print it as one sheet. But I love that you can also add the date to assignments because then the assignment shows up on the in-app calendar.

    I like this app better than iDoceo because it prints ALL of the classes, rather than just one class at a time and it also adds up the grades for you automatically. That is all I need because it is like an automatic report card.

    Though this app has many great features, I:
    🔹Would prefer printable reports rather than email to print.
    🔹Would love to have the iCloud and Dropbox option.
    🔹Would love if it synced to my calendar.
    🔹Would love to customize the school name, logo, header color, etc.
    🔹Would love to print the in-app calendar because it can work as a daily lesson planner and would like to see grades in the in-app cal.
    🔹Would prefer a universal photo image for each term or year rather than to have to change each student image for each class if updating their profile photo.
    🔹Would love to have the option of child's photo on their printable record.
    ☑️Would love to have "bulk copy" for classes instead of copying one class at a time to create the next term.
    🔹Would love to be able to change class category "on the fly" within assignments --instead of having to delete the assignment and rewrite it under a different class name (if I accidentally recored it in the wrong place).
    🔹Would love to be able to choose classes for a Detailed Class Report.
    🔹Would love it if dates were included in the Detailed Class Report.

    TIPS:
    I create my Quarters/Terms like:
    Quarter 1.4, Quarter 2.4, Quarter 3.4 Quarter 4.4 for 2014 (Quarters in 4th grade)
    Quarter 1.3, Quarter 2.3, Quarter 3.3, Quarter 4.4 for 2013 (Quarters in 3rd grade)

    Instead of Quarter 1, Quarter 2, etc. so the app can distinguish.

    The most important feature this app is missing is syncing options. I wish it would sync from my iPhone to iPad so I don't do double recording. Other than that, if someone else creates an app like this one with sync, this app may lose its following because syncing is necessary nowadays.

  • Review

    Need more course list where we can add, instead of just three.
  • Import feature is too fussy

    The only way to import student information is to use the apparently super fussy template. There used to be one you could email to use, but it seems to be gone. Great app if one could use it.
  • Helpful Tracker!

    I used this app for the first time this year to track grades for home schooling. I wish I had it years ago. I haven't been able to get bonus points to work as described in the documentation (which is why I took off one star), but otherwise it has been fairly easy to use.

    I keep a paper schedule of assignments that gets dated as each item is completed, so I don't track attendance with the app. But I DO keep my grade book on it entirely. This has allowed me to do a running GPA score for my student every week so she can be on the lookout for ways to improve her performance. If I'd had that capability when I had 5 kids to track, it would have been SO HELPFUL! I don't think I will be going back to Excel spreadsheets at this point.

  • Very good app!!!

    I love this app. It works for our university lab sessions. I hope the developer could contct us and develop a customized version for us.
  • Perfect

    This app was just what I needed to keep track of attendance in my fitness classes. It is easy to use, reliable, and FREE. I already purchased a different app "Attendance2" and it was incredibly difficult to maneuver through. I stopped using it immediately after purchase. I am so grateful I found this to take its place!
