Istudiez Pro Legendary Planner App Reviews

It’s by far very useful. Just wish I can add notes to my classes/ lectures. Like have a comment box where I can insert other detail.

I’m new to the app and I like it so far. Some things can be kind of confusing and hard to find. I do wish that there was an option for recurring assignments. For example, one of my classes has a quiz and discussions due on the same day every week. It would be easier to have an option for that instead of having to put them as a separate assignment for every single week. That would be worth the 5th star to me, because I’ve frequently had classes with regular assignments that are always due on the same day, same time, etc throughout the entire semester.

This app is amazing, and I love that it works across different platforms (from my windows computer to my iPhone or iPad.) one thing I wish was available would be a reminders section or something where you could add notes to your calendar/schedule that didn’t require it to me classified as an assignment. Thank you for the response, I was looking more at to add notes or events that did not have anything to do with classes. Example would be like “volunteering” “concerts” “lunch with friends.”

Really love the app and have been using it since freshman year. There’s one suggestion: for exams and grades part, say, I have 10 quizzes and they weigh in total 15%, if it’s possible that I can enter the total weight then have an option like “not for one test” and can choose amount of the quiz. In the example it would be 10, so the system automatically divides the weight for each one is 1.5%. Then I don’t have to enter every quiz and it’s weight repeatedly. Thank you!

Hi! I LOVE this app and it is detrimental in my studies. I just got the Apple Watch Series 4 and see that there’s no option to add the iStudiez Pro complication to the watch face. Any word on when I’ll be able to add that back?? It’s not the same without it!

I really love this app. It’s great to be able to see my calendar and class schedule on top of each other in the app. I just wish there was a way to put in a repeated assignment that is due every week.

I’ve been using this app since the beginning of high school, and I’m a junior in college now - it’s definitely saved me multiple times when assignments get busy. And it’s been maintained really well over the years, so well worth buying in the long term. Some suggestions would be to allow us to set multiple alerts for assignments, and also to have a quicker way to add in assignments - the current way isn’t bad but it has a lot of steps. Siri support or a smart text box (like the Mac calendar app) would be exceptionally useful for this. Keep up the great work!

I have been using this app for years now and it’s still my favorite, reliable app. I’m out of college but I still use it to organize my work schedule and personal schedule. It syncs with every other calendar and most importantly it’s clean, easy to use, and never has bug issues. Thanks!!!! Keep it up :)

I just have one critique. For classes where there are repetitive assignments like readings or quizzes, I wish I could input those all at once as due before every class rather than having to make every individual assignment. Have an option for “every class, every other class, every Sunday, etc.” for assignments rather than always a single assignment

I have this for the the Mac, iPad and my iPhone. I have been working on my degree for a year and a half now. All of which has been online classes. While taking online classes you need to be super organized and keep yourself motivated since you don’t have anyone but yourself moving. Some classes I had no due dates for any of my work until the last day of the quarter. With this app I can make a weekly schedule of all my assignments, exams, quiz’s and due dates. And the great part is it will let you know when you work is due. So in the beginning of the quarter I will copy all the work and due dates from my syllabus and let iStudiez keep me on track. Also iStudiez lets you know all the work you have left to complete. Sometimes it can be 120+ assignments which can be pretty over whelming at times. But it is a constant reminder on what all I have left to do. IStudiez is a great app and I recommend it for everyone. It has helped me tremulously in my journey to getting my degree. It is a must have app for any college student with a heavy work load.

Es el colmo que no la pueda descargar si no tengo iOS 10, se supone que uno puede descargar versiones antiguas, y como no tengo el instalador entonces no podré usarla, es una pena

I bought this app thinking that I will have an app that I can access both on my phone and my laptop. But I was so upset when it asked me to pay another 10$ for the Windows computer app. It first of all, it advertised that I can use this app on different platforms but at the end I have to buy it again and again to use on my different devices. And now I’m stuck with this one (no refund is possible) when I could have clearly used a different free app on both of my devices.

I went “paperless” this year with my iPad Pro and went crazy trying to find a digital planner to help me keep organized with 20+ credits a semester. I tried literally any app I could get my hands on and this app really stood out for my intensive needs. I really like how assignments and exams can be added and I can choose when to get notified about them. The grade / GPA calculations are also very thoughtful. This app is obviously geared toward undergraduate studies but can be adapted with some elbow grease to any sort of schedule. I only have a few complaints. This app really is great for automating schedule creation if your class is at a stable time every week (eg. 2:00-3:00 MWF) but my classes are often at different times every week. This app does have a feature to create individual classes but it would be nice if they could streamline this process a little to save people like me a little time with manual entry. The little icons for each class also auto-generate randomly with every new class. It would be nice if there was an option to select / change all or a setting to not use icons at all. Lastly, I would love the ability to upload a PDF of my syllabus into the app just to be able to consult from time to time. This could be a feature similar to the instructor information feature. Overall, highly recommend!!

Not only is this app well thought out and designed, but the Apple Watch app looks and works flawlessly on my first generation Apple Watch! I was shocked because due to the watch being three years old most apps (including the built in ones) run sluggishly and stutter. While the Apple Watch app used to not be like this, it seems that the developers have improved it over the past year!

This app is amazing, and I love that it works across different platforms (from my windows computer to my iPhone or iPad.) one thing I wish was available would be a reminders section or something where you could add notes to your calendar/schedule that didn’t require it to me classified as an assignment.

I’ve used this app for about a year now, and it’s been the best one I’ve used so far. I’ve tried a lot! The developers keep adding beneficial tweaks. It’s got a calendar, assignment spots, reminders, instructor pages, grade input, total grade graph, plus it’s color coded! Thanks whoever developed this!!!

If you just wanna talk about it as a function, you guys did a pretty good job. The only thing to really improve is the user interface. Some parts of the app look like its high tech, other part mehh. Like for example, when picking out a time, you use the standard ios scroll thing. It would look better if there was an in-app thing. Its important that not only an app works well, but looks good too

I just started my second round of grad school and am attempting to go paperless. Looking at the description and reviews I hoped this was the app that would help coordinate my crazy schedule and allow me to organize classes, assignments, and exams accordingly. It’s SO close to great, but not quite there. Pros: Allows to build color coded courses with classes, assignments and exams inside. Lists assignments in order by date for multiple classes. Syncs with my other calendars so I can see all events at one time from the overview screen. I wish it could... Show EVERYTHING on one screen. Currently you have to click to the “assignments” / “classes” tabs to see the event listed. There’s not a way to see everything all together on the given day which is frustrating. I’m better off using a regular old calendar app with color coded tags to signify the class. Add additional notes to everything I input. For example when I add a “class” I can’t add any additional information. It just says “Class” with the date and time. I’d like to be able to enter the title of the class AND the agenda for that class. Possibly even be able to add a link to where my notes are resources needed for that class. (Seems like a really simple additional ‘notes’ field - however it’s not there) Sync / Sharing ability with other apps especially for notes - such as Evernote, OneNote, Google etc. My opinion, not worth the $2.99. Save your money and use tags in a traditional calendar app. If you’re looking for apps that also have “ToDo” right in the calendar, I recommend Fantastical or Pocket Informant.

I tried to sync it to my iPad native calendar, followed all the instructions and FAQs, it shows up in the list of subscribed calendars, but my assignments do not show up or have the reminders I need. I’m sure it used to work, a long time ago when I bought this app, but now anymore. Reminders for assignments are what I need, deleting this app.

I love this app and even tell my friends to use it as well. However, I noticed that the final grade feature, which I’ve been able to use for the past 2 semesters, is now missing. If you could please bring back this feature, it would be much appreciated. Edit: Oh ok! Yes I see that now, my mistake 😅. Great app!

Best app ever, can't go to university without it :)

This app does almost everything I need it to do. My biggest request would be for the program to allow me to choose whether classes are graded according to percentages or points on a course by course basis.

I love using this to remind me about classes and homework assignments it would be really nice if it could also tell your grade breakdown if you use weights so you can see what categories you need to improve more... also it would be nice if it was cheaper to also get it on my computer cuz I already spent money on this one

Alas, my education career is coming to an end. After using the free version for a time and moving to the pro not long after, it is time to say goodbye to one of my most favorite and most loved apps. This app helped me all the way from the end of my junior year of high school through the end of grad school here in a couple weeks. Can not recommend this app enough for someone who is as scattered brained as I am, who would write things down on scraps of paper and promptly lose them. 10/10 app

The app works fine, and I think it's great! However, I think there should be a different grading scale for each class

I tried out a lot of homework apps; in fact, i think i downloaded them all, tried them out, and then quickly deleted. But, I stuck with this one and have been using it all semester. It’s very handy; I really appreciate having all of my assignments for the whole semester already calendared and easily accessible at all times. However, I have had one major problem and won’t be using the app anymore because of it. I use this primarily to keep track of my assignments, and rarely put things into the calendar. So, I don’t usually view the calendar page; I forget. Twice, though, I’ve forgotten to attend something I wanted to attend because I failed to regularly click the calendar page. There should be a view (it should probably be the MAIN view/home screen that combines all of your upcoming assignments, exams, AND calendar entries — you should be able to see everything for your week on one screen. If you enter all of your exams for the semester into the calendar under the “new exam” option, they will appear in your calendar, but there will be no mention that you have a test next week in your list of upcoming assignments due/study plan. Yikes. I hope the developer will consider creating a consolidated view, at least as a current/upcoming week combined schedule/assignment plan. It should include all exams, events, and assignments, in my opinion. Otherwise, this is a great app.

please add an option for weekly/ hourly view on the iphone app. i LOVE it on the mac app.

Es una app indispensable para organizar tu horario escolar, me ha sido de mucha ayuda en la escuela para guardar salones de clase, maestros, tareas, etc. Muy recomendable si prefieres tener organizado tus activiades escolares en tu celular.

Are the grades only available on English iStudiez Pro version? Because I’m using the Spanish version and I can’t see where can i “chek” the grades

I’ve only used this app for 1 semester so far but I love how this app is set up. It’s easy to use and keeps almost all class information at my fingertips. I wish there was a way to record the book information per class as I currently take multiple classes that are similar. It would also be nice to tie the textbook to the assignments.

I like the app, but i have one problem with; i can’t move an assignment or exam to “completed” section and this really bothers me.

I use iStudiez Pro every single day for my classes since 2015. It’s the most convenient way to stay on top of my assignments. One of my favorite features is the class period countdown compilation for my Apple Watch. I just wish there was an option for recurring assignments, but that’s not enough to warrant taking off a star.

For the past few weeks I keep trying to sync my devices and I am continuously prompted that “cloud sync server can’t be found” not sure what’s going on there. Would be great to get that working again! Edit.... Support has reached out to me and they have resolved this issue so I’m changing my rating back up to a 4. Thanks guys for the help!

I love using this app! It keeps me organized and prepared for all my classes. This app makes it so easy to see what I have coming up, and see important dates that I don’t want to forget. I especially love that you can input your entire schedule for the semester. I only wish that there were more icons for classes. Otherwise, LOVE the app!

This is a life saver of an app. My friend recommended it and there’s no going back to being unorganized. One complaint: it doesn’t seem like there’s a way to undo deletes. I’m constantly scared that I’ll accidentally delete an assignment, class, or heaven forbid, an entire semester. All it takes it’s an accidental swipe left and everything would be gone. This is huge as I’m far less confident navigating what would be the perfect college companion. Please consider adding a simple undo option or even “30 day trash” folder. This is the only thing that takes it down a star. But as a frantic student, it’s huge. Thank you!

This app has helped me stay on top of all my schoolwork the past four years! Invaluable and amazing. I would like to see an option for dual GPAs; for example, I am in a college degree program that earns me a bachelors and masters degree, and it would be nice to code courses as counting towards my undergraduate or graduate GPA and have both be displayed. Thanks so much for this app!

Getting really frustrated with this app because they can add new features but won’t fix problems that have been ongoing for many semesters! Update- Many emails to support and app updates later, they STILL haven’t fixed the issue.

iStudiez has made organizing assignments and planning grades easier than ever. Don’t know how I would’ve gotten through the past 4 years without it.

This application is very helpful but it will be better if we can add instructors office hours; this will help us a lot. Thank you

I really like this app it’s very helpful but it will be much better if you add a new feature like an appointment and meeting reminder. And it is better to add like timetable which you can see all what you have to do for this week. Thankyou

As a student of an “Advanced Age” as my daughter calls me, I’m impressed. TIP: As soon as you receive your syllabus and/or assignment list, take the few minutes to enter the information in right then. You won’t regret it. You can then edit/add/ delete on the fly. I rarely pay for apps but this one was a few dollars well spent.

This app is so great I can’t live without it. Everything in my life (appointments, exams, assignments...etc) is on this jewel. This app tells me when i need to work harder in the semester. Whenever someone asks me about an exam date I always have the answer because of this app. It organizes my study life and made me reach to a whole new level of functioning. Easy to use, supports Arabic letters, rarely crashes, nice, smooth and most of all reliable. The only thing I would like it to be there is a description for the course where I can put how the grades will be counted in the course and anything related to it.

The app is nice, clean, simple UI. However, the notifications aren’t there for me. When setting a notification for an assignment, you can only set one. It would be so much more effective if you can set multiple notifications for each assignment. I find it too easy to pass by a notification and if I don’t remember to reset it, will forget about it. I have been trained by other apps to set multiple reminders and use snooze features to which has countered my use of this system correctly, or usefully. I also find it strange that when marking an assignment done it immediately asks for a grade which is impossible to log if you JUST handed in an assignment. I haven’t found a way to go back and enter grades once I have them. I also find that I can’t integrate this calendar into my Google calendar so I have to toggle between two calendars when looking up assignments and events. This is not streamlining. I have paid for the pro version but really it has only been useful to me I terms of telling me class locations and times. I could just rely on my Notes and Google calendar apps for that and they are free.

I’ve been using this app for 3 years and half and I purchased it on iOS, MacOS and Windows 10. It’s really helpful and has a lot of features that I can’t go one day without using. I just wish if there was a way to calculate my GPA in a semester without having to wait for the end date of the semester because sometimes I want to check how my GPA and total GPA would be during the current semester.

As I purchased it yesterday and used for a day, I found something that need to be updated. 1. Sync does not work correctly. I created two assignments and deleted one using iPhone. But the assignments in iPad do not change. 2. There is no way to make the assignment completed in iPad app. (iPhone: yes)

I’m well-qualified to review iStudiez by now; I’ve been using the app for 7 years now. Yes, SEVEN! I have also gotten plenty of hands-on experience with all of the organization apps that this competes with - I looked for better alternatives, but this remains the best. I use on Mac / iPhone, and the syncing is perfectly executed, the support team has been very helpful when I had issues once with a weird data glitch, and for 7 years I’ve continued to recommend this to fellow students. I paid for the Mac and iPhone app years ago, and it was one of the few app purchases that I would wholeheartedly pay for again / even pay more for.

App is useful and does what it says but I wish I could be able to use two different grading systems for my classes. Two of them use percentage and one uses points. I reached out to the iStudiez team but have yet to hear from them. Please resolve.

I love this app. It’s easy to input assignments and see when they’re due in relation to other assignments. It lets you input exams and homework and class times. The reminder feature has saved me a few times from accidentally skipping class or forgetting an assignment. I don’t know how plausible it is for this app but adding some way to keep track of grades would be a neat feature. My professors are supposed to post grades online but some of them don’t or they post 5 of 15 grades and it would be nice to be able to see what my grade is.

I can’t find out how to change the credit that each class is given it only says that I have 1 credit for each class when some of my classes have 3 credits. Please if anyone knows how to do this help.

The header on the iPhone X has a weird glitch where the gradient is messed up. Please fix this. Also please add SUB TASKS. This would be so helpful for me. Currently my assignments are so messy 😞

I don’t usually write app reviews but iStudiez is so worth it. This app has been my go-to for 7 years now (since middle school). It has served me phenomenally through 4 different schools with varied schedule/grading systems. User-friendly, completely customizable, beautiful and precise... This app is worth every penny and so much more than that. Enjoy it.

The image for the bar at the top doesn’t extend to the end and it looks awkward and bad

Suggesting the ability to mark assignments as complete from the Watch App and/or on the iphone's Notification Center

This application is very helpful but it will be better if we can add instructors office hours; this will help us a lot. Thank you

I’ve used this app ever since it came out and it’s still as awesome as ever. I do recommend however putting a night mode.

I’ve been using iStudiez Pro for over five years now and I’ve enjoyed every minute of it. I have some suggestions: 1. Convert Exam Back to Class: I’ve had my exams pushed back by professors and the only way to fix this in the app is to delete the exam and add another single class. You end up with lots of single classes in the Planner section. 2. Add PDFs: Being able to add documents to assignments would be awesome. Keep up the amazing work and thanks for a beautiful app!

I used this app during my undergrad and loved it. It is presently crashing and not saving any data and I would love to use it for my grad classes. Please fix !

This app got me through 4 years of college. Used it from day 1 to the very end and it was the perfect companion. I’m very grateful this app exists.

Love this app but are there going to be any new colorful themes , added for us? And will there be a grade average. Like the grade input but also need or would like a grade tracker vs inputs

This app is amazing, and I love that it works across different platforms (from my windows computer to my iPhone or iPad.) one thing I wish was available would be a reminders section or something where you could add notes to your calendar/schedule that didn’t require it to me classified as an assignment. Thank you for the response, I was looking more at to add “notes” or “events” option that did not have anything to do with classes. So you can still have important things show up like “volunteering” “concerts” “lunch with friends.” In a note or event. You are only given the options to add class,exam,assignment, and holiday to your calendar.

I am able to keep track of all my assignments and exams!

Por favor dejarme descargar la última versión compatible con ios 8, yo compré esto cuando estaba en ios 7 y ahora no me descarga si no tengo ios 10, creo que ultima versión era la 1.8.5 y ya no está disponibles en AppStore, ¡ayuda!

On the Apple Watch, it always shows "no data" when you set it on your complication. I have to open the app on the phone for it to reactivate.

I love this app. I have tried many planners for my phone and this has been the best on for me. I like that I can set the standard time for the classes. I also like to color code my classes with other items I use. I do not use the homework tracker because I have many different types of assignments. One thing I wish there was was a repeating assignment. I have many assignment that are due the same time every week. I keep track of my homework on paper and I prefer to because it takes less time. The calendar is the main feature I use on the app and I love it.

It’s been a few years since I graduated college but looking back, I don’t know how I would have survived without this app. I planned homework, long term projects, tests, and my calendar using this app. For a very disorganized individual like myself having this app not only helped me manage my time and studies but also taught be how to manage my time in my non-academic life. Thank you!

Love this app, it’s very helpful, especially for college students. However I wish you could mark assignments as completed from the watch app.

Perfect for keeping track of homework and grades! ✔️💯 best app to stay organized!

Edit: It’s working perfectly now, 5 stars! I’ve been using this app for about a week now and it is amazing. I’ve recommended it to everyone I know that is a student. My only beef is that I can never connect to the sync server. My internet is fine, iCloud is working fine, but it constantly logs me out and can’t connect. This has been a regular issue since I purchased this app and I get the error 90% of the time I use it, day or night.

The server issues were unfortunate but the developers have been amazing at communications with the users.

The server issues were unfortunate but the developers have been amazing at communications with the users. I plan to use this app through college and beyond as it’s amazing. Thank you

I love this app, it’s really helped me keep track of my workload and what events I can do wrt my class schedule. Worth the money. @ iStudiez team tho, would you be able to change the calendar so that it acknowledges that it’s a leap year/tracks Feb. 29 somehow? My whole calendar gets thrown out of whack otherwise, would be super helpful.

I've been using this app for 3 or 4 years and I have no idea how I had lived without it. Best app for planners, totally worth the money! Update: seems like the sync option isn’t working for some reason. Still love the app though! Update update: it’s working again 😊

It’s not great, it won’t redefine your expectations, it won’t wow you. In fact it may frustrate you like it did for me. Theres better options out there but I must say, if you choose this app you will likely not be disappointed, if you don’t have experience with other apps. I recommend trying the lite version first before this version.

Perfect for keeping track of homework and grades! ✔️💯 best app to stay organized! But it hasn’t been working the past few days with cloud sync!!! Fix this is one of my most important apps!

Do not buy this c***** app from this c***** development team. They broke the sync function. I wish they hadn’t done that. I don’t know who these developers are, but I will find them, and hunt them down, and leave a strongly worded review on their app in the App Store.

I have been using this app since fall of 2017 and I bought it to . I love this app but now it is not letting me log in and sync my stuff . It say canton find the cloud sync server. Cloud sync server is unreachable. Check my internet connection and I have many time and it is not working.

This app has been a life saver for me, and I’d never use anything else. That being said, no matter what I try, I continue to get the error message that the cloud sync server is inaccessible. I need to be able to sync my homework between my devices.

It is not sync to any of my devices

I’m currently pretty frustrated with this app because it’s refusing to sync with the app on my Mac. It’s not the first time it’s happened, so it’s annoying.

I’ve been using this app for about a week now and it is amazing. I’ve recommended it to everyone I know that is a student. My only beef is that I can never connect to the sync server. My internet is fine, iCloud is working fine, but it constantly logs me out and can’t connect. This has been a regular issue since I purchased this app and I get the error 90% of the time I use it, day or night.

I've been using this app for 3 or 4 years and I have no idea how I had lived without it. Best app for planners, totally worth the money! Update: seems like the sync option isn’t working for some reason. Still love the app though!

It’s been three days and I still can’t sync my phone to the servers.... I deleted and reinstalled the application. It syncs fine on my Mac but it is not working on my phone... says “Cannot find Link to cloud sync server”

Please fix bug. I rely on this app for all my schoolwork. Signed me out of my account and then won’t let me log back in saying there’s a connection error

Love this app been using it for about a year with no update troubles until the most recent. I get an error message saying the cloud connection can’t be found every time I open the app. It only lets me try to sign in once and then fails. This won’t allow me to sync my laptop and my iPhone app. Quite annoying please fix ASAP

The app is absolutely amazing when there is an update that syncs to the iStudiez cloud, however there are multiple instances where syncing will altogether quit working across all devices. I love this app and have recommended it to many of my peers, but the constant on and off issues with syncing makes me hesitant to continue doing so. An update is needed immediately to resolve syncing issues.

The syncing hasn’t worked in several days!!! If it’s going to take so long to fix and least notify users that it is being worked on.

Says “cannot find the cloud sync server” on all 3 devices.

Signed up, bought the pro version for both Mac and PC, and both versions "cannot find the server" for whatever reason at random times when I try to sync no matter how many times I enter the correct password/ reset the password. I just want my money back so I can purchase the subscription for iStudent or whatever it's called.

The Could Sync Server doesn’t respond.

The sync function doesn’t work.

The app definitely has everything I want for assignment and grade tracking. However, I would like to see this app sync in the background. The only way the app syncs is when it’s open. There is a temporary exclamation in the sync icon that goes away after the app is open for a few seconds. It would be much better if the app stayed synced without having to open the app. Would be 5 stars with that fix.

For the past few weeks I keep trying to sync my devices and I am continuously prompted that “cloud sync server can’t be found” not sure what’s going on there. Would be great to get that working again!

I’m not sure what happened but on my laptop, iPad Pro, and iPhone 10 I can’t even sign into my account let alone sync it. Extremely frustrating considering i spent over 4 hours inputting 200+ assignments for my 17 credit course load this semester on college. An update is needed ASAP to fix this.

I’ve only been using this a few days but I already love it. I just wish I could upload pictures with my assignments

I first came across this app when I was a freshman in college, and I’ve used it ever since! It’s literally one of the most useful apps I’ve had for scheduling and I’m really glad I bought it! 110% recommend!

This is a fantastic app when it works. On the phone it works great. The app has stopped working with the Apple Watch and I can’t find a support email to get the link to get the program downloaded when it crashed several times on my Windows laptop.

I got this app a couple of days ago, and it has relieved a lot of stress for me. I hated having to take out a big planner for every little thing i needed to write down, and this certainly helps. it allows you to enter in so much specific and vital information about your professor, class, and assignments. It also syncs with the mac app and google calendar, which makes the whole experience more seamless. My only complaints are that it only syncs events from google calendar, and not reminders and that you can’t set it so it sends a reminder for the assignments on a time other than the due date time.

I have been using this app for a few years already. The UI is beautiful and well designed. It is way better than any other similar apps. The only problem is there’s no way to create recurring assignments. It is very frustrating to duplicate homework one by one by one and change the due date of each. I don’t understand why it hasn’t been added to the app yet. There have been requests for it for years!
