TimeCrunch is a planner built for students in school, college, and university. It keeps your classes, assignments, due dates, and grades in one place, with a clean design that stays out of your way so you can focus on the work itself. HOW IT WORKS 1. Set up your term with its start and end dates. 2. Add the courses you are taking this term. 3. Add your assignments and check them off by swiping or tapping as you finish them. 4. Enter your scores as they come back and watch your course grades and GPA update on their own. GRADES AND GPA See exactly where you stand in every class. TimeCrunch works out your grade in each course and your GPA for the term, and it recalculates the moment you add a new score. You can set it up the way your school actually grades, with weighted categories, custom grade scales, and credit hours, so the numbers you see match the ones on your transcript. ASSIGNMENTS Add as many assignments as you need all year, with or without a course attached. Each one can carry a due date, a reminder, and notes, and TimeCrunch suggests a sensible due date so there is less to fill in every time. Everything you complete is saved, so you can search back through it whenever you need it. COURSES Build out your courses for the term, then keep them for reference once the term ends, so you always have a record of what you have taken. NOTES AND ATTACHMENTS Keep handouts, worksheets, photos, and links with the assignment they belong to. Scan paper documents straight in with your camera and they save as a clean PDF, right next to your notes. CALENDAR See your whole term at a glance and move through your assignments by date. WIDGETS Put your next assignments and your current GPA on your Home Screen and Lock Screen, so one glance tells you what is due and how you are doing. REMINDERS Things slip when life gets busy. Reminders give you a nudge before a due date so nothing catches you off guard. SYNC Your term goes with you. TimeCrunch stays in sync across your iPhone and iPad, and it keeps working when you are offline, then catches up once you are back online. APPLE WATCH Check off assignments from your wrist, look over your courses, and keep track of when your term starts and ends. TIMECRUNCH PRO Pro opens up the tools for students who want the full picture: Weighted grade categories, so tests, homework, and projects count the way your syllabus says they should. Custom grade scales for each course, because an A is not always ninety percent. A grade goal calculator that shows the exact score you need on what is left to hit your target. Unlimited courses, terms, and reminders. More ways to customize, including default assignment times and calendar styling. Early access to new features through beta testing, with a direct line to send your feedback.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Classify at none against TimeCrunch's 3. Classify also leads on ratings volume (223 vs 27) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15). TimeCrunch's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
