Overview

This app originated from our idea to make an all-in-one academic platform for students in our school board, which came out of frustration with existing tools.

Course Grades

Marks for individual courses and breakdowns for assessments.

Performance Trends

Detailed visualizations of performance trends over time.

Notifications

Push notifications for upcoming appointments and grade updates.

Guidance Appointments

Booking flows synced with live counselor availabilities.

Future Mark Calculation

Input predicted marks to calculate weighted course grades.

Teacher Search

Find teacher information through the OCT directory.

Results

The app ranked in the top 100 education apps on the App Store on release, and peaked at 15,000 users. Unfortunately since we've graduated, it's no longer maintained.

This was also my first project, and I practically learned how to design and code by building it! Seeing my friends and people around me use it was super fulfilling and really motivated me to keep making things.
