Keep on top of every assignment without the faff. Homework Planner is a simple, private way for students to track what's due. Add an assignment in seconds, see what's coming up, and tick it off when it's done. EVERYTHING IN ONE LIST Your homework is sorted by what's due soonest, so the next thing to do is always at the top. Anything overdue is marked in red, so nothing quietly slips past you. ADD HOMEWORK IN SECONDS Give it a title, pick the class, choose a due date. Add a description if it helps. That's it. SNAP THE WORKSHEET Take a photo of the sheet or the whiteboard and attach it to the assignment, so you never have to remember what question 7 actually said. You can also pick a photo you've already taken. DONE MEANS DONE Mark an assignment complete and it moves to your Archive, out of the way but not gone. Finished something by mistake? Send it back to your to-do list in a tap. ON YOUR WRIST The Apple Watch app shows what's still due, lets you tick things off between lessons, and lets you add an assignment the moment it's set — before you've even put your phone back in your bag. ACROSS YOUR DEVICES Your homework syncs through your own iCloud, so it's there on your iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account to create. No ads. No tracking. No analytics. Your homework is stored on your devices and in your own private iCloud — nobody else can see it, and that includes us.
