My HW — Family & School Homework Planner Stop the homework chaos. My HW brings every assignment, deadline, and reminder into one calm, organised place — so parents stop worrying, students stop forgetting, and teachers stop chasing. For parents, finally see everything your child has been set, across every subject, tutor, and class — without digging through school apps, group chats, or your child's bag. Zero effort, if you want it. One person — a class rep, parent, or teacher — can take responsibility for entering homework for the whole group. Everyone else sees it instantly. You can even subscribe to a group's calendar feed and see all homework due in your phone's calendar — without ever opening the app. Turn deadlines into a plan. Subscribers can put homework straight into a personal planner and calendar, blocking out time to get everything done — no more last-minute scrambles. Beyond homework. Track activities like piano practice, sports training, or revision for an upcoming exam. Track progress over time and schedule practice sessions right alongside homework in the same planner. Built for real families. One person can be a parent, a tutor, and a class rep — all at once. Belong to and create as many groups as you need, and see it all in a single, seamless feed. Free to join any group your child's teacher or tutor sets up. Subscribe to create your own groups, unlock the planner, and track activities — perfect for homeschooling, tutoring, or your own classroom. Works everywhere. Use the iOS app or the web app at any time — everything syncs instantly, so you're always up to date. Less stress. Less nagging. Less "wait, what was I supposed to do again?" My HW — because homework shouldn't be a fight. Terms of Use: https://myhw.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://myhw.app/privacy
