## What is Nudge?

Nudge is a homework planner and assignment reminder app for students. Connect Canvas, Schoology, Blackboard, Brightspace (D2L), Moodle, Sakai, ManageBac, Veracross or Blackbaud once, and every due date lands in one list, with a nudge before each deadline.

Meet Pip, a small bird who lives on your windowsill. When something's due, his crest perks up and he nudges you, early enough to actually do it.

WORKS WITH YOUR SCHOOL'S LMS
- Canvas
- Schoology
- Blackboard
- Brightspace (D2L)
- Moodle
- Sakai
- ManageBac
- Veracross
- Blackbaud (myschoolapp)
- Any other school calendar link (.ics)

HOW IT WORKS
1. Pick your school's platform. Nudge shows you exactly where its calendar link is.
2. Paste the link once. Every dated assignment, quiz and exam shows up, sorted by due date.
3. Pip nudges you before each deadline. If a teacher moves a due date, he tells you what changed.

Nudge never asks for your school password. It reads the same private calendar link your school gives you for Apple Calendar or Google Calendar.

TYPE IT LIKE A TEXT
"stats quiz friday 10am" is a complete entry. Nudge reads the date and time straight out of what you type. No date pickers, no forms.

ALWAYS KNOW WHAT'S NEXT
Home opens on a live countdown to whatever's due first. It turns rose when it's close.

NUDGED, NOT NAGGED
Nudges only come for real deadlines, things due together share one nudge, and nothing lands overnight. Pip moves those to the evening before.

LATE STILL COUNTS
No streaks, no grades, no guilt. If something slips, Pip helps you send it anyway, and Mark all done clears an old backlog in one tap.

MEET PIP
He cheers when you finish something, naps when nothing's due, and gets dizzy if you boop him too much. His windowsill follows the seasons.

NO ACCOUNT NEEDED
Nudge works fully without signing in, and your assignments stay on your phone. Sign in only if you want your school link kept for a new phone.

NUDGE EARLY BIRD (OPTIONAL)
Everything above is free forever. Early Bird is for getting ahead:
- A morning brief at wake-up: what's due today, and what to start
- Plan it out: big essays, projects and exams split into small sessions, re-planned if one slips
- Nudges two days early, plus a head start on big work
- A live Lock Screen countdown for the last two hours before a deadline
- Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets
- Snooze in your own words, like "remind me after practice"
- Share Early Bird with 5 friends

Early Bird is an auto-renewing subscription with a 7-day free trial on the yearly plan, or monthly. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage it in your Apple Account settings.

### 5/5 — Literally the best homework reminder app

*2026-10-12*

So I have used a ton of homework reminder apps recently, but they all have Ai and other stuff I just don’t need in them. Nudge just nudges me thought the day to get started on my work. Not only has this improved my overall grade in all of my courses, but it has completely stopped me from procrastinating and forgetting about the homework! If I could give this app a 100/10 I would!

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.4 — 2026-10-12

New widgets and a calmer Live Activity: one simple card with the time left and Pip peeking in. If your first calendar import brings in old past-due work, hold the button and Pip flies up and clears it all. Saving your account now comes after your calendar is linked, and Pip tucks what you're keeping into his nest. Assignment notes from your school read better, with tappable links and tidy lists. Plus small fixes and improvements.

### 1.3 — 2026-10-11

A redesigned Early Bird page: pick yearly or monthly side by side and see exactly what you'll pay before you start. Signing in now stamps your Nudge pass with a little ceremony. Pip only promises the free-week reminder when notifications are on, and offers to turn them on. Plan it out has its own place in Early Bird, small iPhones fit the page better, and purchases are smoother, plus small fixes and improvements.

### 1.2.1 — 2026-10-07

Early Bird fixes: the free-week offer now matches what the App Store charges, monthly prices show the same on every screen, and the trial reminder date is clearer. Small fixes and improvements.

### 1.2 — 2026-10-06

New: Plan it out. Big essays, projects and exams get split into small sessions a day apart, and if one slips, tap "Didn't get to it" and Pip spreads out what's left. (Early Bird)

The morning brief now names one thing to start with, and can book 30 minutes for it.

Early Bird has a new look, and every member gets 5 invites to give friends Early Bird too.

Nudge now collects anonymous usage stats (never your assignments, names or links) so we can see what to fix. Turn it off anytime in Settings > Share usage analytics.

Plus small fixes and polish.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-10-05

Fixed a bug that could sign you out of your account a while after signing in with Apple or Google. You'll stay signed in now.

Softer, quieter sounds throughout the app.
