Schuno

Schuno keeps your school grades where you need them: on your iPhone, without an account and without anyone else reading along. The app works the same way your school does. You pick the grading scale yourself: 1 to 6 with 6 as the best grade, 1 to 6 with 1 as the best grade, or 1 to 5 with 1 as the best grade. Subjects carry their own weight, every single grade counts with the factor the exam deserves, and your core subject average stays separate from the overall one. HOW YOU USE IT β’ Add a period β a semester or a whole school year, with your school's grading scale. You pick the subjects in the second step. β’ Weight subjects at 0.5Γ, 1.0Γ or 2.0Γ, and mark them as core subjects. β’ Enter grades and weight them individually: 0.5Γ, 1.0Γ, 1.5Γ, 2.0Γ or a custom value. β’ Attach the exam as a file to the grade and open it again later. β’ Keep subject, overall and core subject averages in view at all times. β’ Follow the grade trend and the subject comparison in the statistics. β’ Your data syncs via iCloud β use Schuno on several devices with the same data. β’ Prepare the next semester: the subjects carry over, the grades do not. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Schuno needs no user account and no sign-up. No ads, no tracking, no analytics services. Your data lives on your device and in your private iCloud β never on anyone else's servers. LANGUAGES German, French, Italian and English.
