In eight steps

  1. Noah’s timetable covers 8 am to 6 pm. First period starts at 8:15 am and soccer practice ends at 6 pm. For now it shows Monday to Friday.

  2. Periods are 45 minutes with 5-minute breaks. Because times are set to the minute, they match the school’s bell schedule. Seventh period ends at 2:35 pm, and soccer practice runs 4:30 to 6:00 on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

  3. Change the days shown in the timetable settings. Extend Monday–Friday to Saturday, and tutoring from 10 am to noon appears on the same page. Sunday can be added too.

  4. A To-Do has a due date and a class it is linked to. Tap that Science class on the timetable and the project shows with it, so it is always clear which class a task belongs to.

  5. The report is due Friday morning, with a “1 day before” reminder. On Thursday morning an alarm screen opens. Tap “Snooze for 5 minutes” and it rings once more five minutes later.

  6. There are three widgets: weekly, Today overview and To-Do. Choose Noah’s timetable when you place the weekly widget, and the home screen tells you whether today is a practice day.

  7. Mark the report complete in the To-Do widget. Tasks due today can be completed in the Today overview widget too. The app’s To-Do list updates with it, so there is nothing to check off twice.

  8. Turn on “Show weekly table on lock screen” in settings and Noah’s timetable appears every time the phone wakes. It only shows the timetable; nothing changes until the phone is unlocked.

Middle school timetable: common questions

Can it match 45-minute periods that start at 8:15?
Yes. Start and end times are set to the minute. Enter 8:15–9:00 just as it is printed on the school schedule.
Can I see school classes and after-school activities together?
Yes. Put classes and activities on one timetable and they show on one page. If you would rather keep them apart, make a second timetable and switch between the two.
Can I add Saturday and Sunday?
Yes. In the timetable settings, extend the days shown to the weekend. Saturday and Sunday plans then go on the same page.
