Hall Pass+ helps teachers manage student movement quickly and clearly from a single iPad, iPhone, or MacOS dashboard. Teachers can import simple class rosters from CSV files, create and print student QR code cards, customize destination QR codes such as bathroom, counselor, or food and drink, and use the built-in scanner to check students out and back in with fast QR scans. The app keeps a live hall pass log, tracks where students go and when they return, and makes it easier to stay organized without paper passes or manual tracking. Designed for classroom use, Hall Pass+ keeps the process simple, visual, and efficient so teachers can monitor student trips with less disruption during the school day.

IDK Can You? is classroom accountability that runs itself: hall passes, seating charts, and device checkouts without paper logs, approval queues, or another system teachers have to babysit. Students scan themselves out and back in at a classroom kiosk. IDK Can You? handles the clock, waitlist, return, and overdue flags. You set the rules once—limits, destinations, timers, and automatic restrictions—and step in only when something actually needs you. No approval queue. No request page on a student’s screen. No IT ticket just to check out a Chromebook. Set it once. Then teach. HALL PASSES • Turn a classroom device into a self-service kiosk where students scan themselves out and back in • See every active pass and timer live from your phone • Review pass history for today, this week, or the entire term • Set the boundaries that work for your classroom, including how many students can be out, individual limits, destinations, and timers DEVICE CHECKOUTS • Check Chromebooks and other classroom devices in and out by scanning • See what is out, what came back, and what was reported damaged • Track loaners without losing a student’s original device assignment BUILT FOR SCHOOL REALITY • Set up a class in minutes by importing a CSV or adding students by hand • Use IDK Can You? from your phone, a classroom kiosk, or the web • We track passes, not kids: only the data the system needs, encrypted and never used for advertising • No ads. Ever.
