Read full description

School DelayZz is an alarm that automatically adjusts your regular wake up time when your school is delayed, closed, or changed to a remote learning schedule due to inclement weather, allowing you to sleep longer on bad weather days! First, select your school from the list of schools. Next, configure the alarm for your regular wake up time and customize your extra sleep preferences in the event of varying length delays, closings, or changes to a remote learning schedule. For example, in the event of a 2-hour delay, choose to sleep the entire length of the delay or just an extra 15 minutes. When a delay, closing, or change to remote schedule occurs, you will receive a silent notification, and the School DelayZz alarm will automatically adjust according to your customizations and will set a new alarm for you! Finally, no more waking up just to sleep more! Snow days just got better! If you don't see your school/school district on our list, ask your school administration to use our system free of charge for school delays and closings, in addition to their regular communication procedures. School administrators can sign up at https://schooldelayzz.com. Privacy Policy: https://schooldelayzz.com/privacy Terms and Conditions: https://schooldelayzz.com/terms-and-conditions

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: School DelayZz at none against Shift Day Work Calendar's shown. School DelayZz also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 17.3). Shift Day Work Calendar's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (14K vs 14). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Shift Day Work Calendar sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and School DelayZz sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

School DelayZz holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shift Day Work Calendar has 14K ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 86% of Shift Day Work Calendar's written reviews are positive against 83% of School DelayZz's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Shift Day Work Calendar ships an update every 4 days, School DelayZz every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
