Raku Timetable
Read full descriptionHide full description
Raku Timetable is a timetable and assignment planner for college students. There is no school-email verification, no account and no social feed, so you can start the moment you open it. Every feature, including the timetable, assignments and reminders, is available without a purchase, and one optional non-consumable in-app purchase hides ads only. Turn an absent or excused class record into a catch-up checklist tied to that class date and period. Track materials to review, assignments, revision and your own items, with the next class calculated from your current timetable. Progress is saved on your device. When you change or delete an attendance record, you can choose whether to keep or close its active checklist. BUILD A TERM IN 30 SECONDS Choose your school days, how many periods you have (4 to 8) and a term name, then tap empty cells to place courses. The term name is suggested from the current month. EVERYTHING A COURSE NEEDS Each course carries its room, teacher, color and absence count. Period start and end times are editable so the grid matches your university, and placing two courses in the same cell is detected as a conflict. ASSIGNMENTS LIVE ON THE CLASS Add homework from the course it came from. The "by next class" chip reads your timetable and turns the next class start into a due date. "This Friday" and "next Monday" are one tap each. SORTED BY WHAT IS DUE NEXT The assignment tab files work into Overdue, Today, Tomorrow, This Week and Later. Finished items fold away so only what is left stays in view. REMINDERS THAT FIT A SCHEDULE Pick one hour before, 8pm the evening before, or 8am on the day. Reminders are rescheduled automatically when you complete an assignment or move a deadline. ABSENCE COUNTING Log an absence for a course in one tap. Set a limit and the app colors the course when you have one left or have reached it. STORAGE AND PRIVACY Your timetable, courses, assignments, terms and notification settings are stored in the app's own area on this device, and no account is required. Ads use Google Mobile Ads: the app processes Google UMP consent information, confirms that ad requests are permitted, presents the iOS ATT choice when its status is undetermined, and starts the ad SDK only after that choice is resolved. Declining ATT does not disable any feature. ADS AND OPTIONAL HIDING By default a banner sits at the bottom of the screen and a full-screen ad appears at natural breaks. An optional non-consumable purchase hides those ads only. It does not unlock features, there is no auto-renewal, and purchases and restores are handled by the App Store.
