Stop guessing where you stand in class.

iOSFree trial

Listed by yeabzema,

Stop guessing where you stand in class. ClassPulse is a GPA calculator, grade calculator, and homework planner in one app, built for high school, college, and university students in the US, Canada, the UK, and Europe.

A 2% reading quiz and a 30% midterm should never look the same on your to-do list. ClassPulse shows you what actually moves your grade.

Open the app and start right away. No sign-up needed. A sample semester shows you how everything works before you add your own classes.

WHY STUDENTS USE CLASSPULSE

SYLLABUS SCANNER
Skip hours of typing due dates into a calendar. Snap a photo or upload a PDF of your syllabus, and ClassPulse pulls out your courses, assignment weights, and exam dates. You check everything before it saves.

CANVAS & SCHOOL CALENDAR IMPORT
Paste your Canvas calendar link once and your assignments and due dates come in automatically. When a teacher moves a due date, ClassPulse updates it for you.

FINAL GRADE CALCULATOR
What do you need on the final to keep your scholarship or pass the course? ClassPulse works backwards from your target grade through your weighted scores and tells you the exact number. No spreadsheet math.

WEIGHTED GRADES & GPA CALCULATOR

  • Course grades that follow your syllabus weights and update as you add scores
  • US 4.0, Canada 4.33, UK Honours, European ECTS, or your own custom grading scale
  • What-If Grade Simulator: try an exam score before test day and see what it does to your GPA

AUTOMATIC STUDY PLANNER THAT FITS YOUR WEEK
Most study planners assume you have endless free time. ClassPulse schedules study sessions only in the hours you say you're free, and puts the heaviest, soonest work first.

ASSIGNMENT TRACKER & DEADLINE REMINDERS

  • Every assignment and exam in one list, with countdowns
  • High Impact tags on anything worth 20% or more
  • A morning brief each day with what's due and what to study first
  • Reminders scheduled on your phone so you never miss a due date

POMODORO FOCUS TIMER & STREAKS

App Store

Free trial, then a paid plan. Testers never pay to test. If a trial asks for a card, cancel before it ends.

This app is made and run by its builder, not by TestMyBuild. We tried it once before listing it, which is not a check that it is safe, keeps working or handles your data well. Use your own judgement.

How to test this app

  1. Open the app and sign up with your real email. Start the free trial if there is one.
  2. Use it the way you would use it for real, for at least a day.
  3. Come back here. Post a screenshot of your signup and what you honestly think. One post per app, worth the listing's bounty when approved.

Starting at the App Store listing: ASO looks solid. If you have a website or Play Store listing, add those to your TestMyBuild listing too.

On Instagram you use many different (likely AI) people to present the app. Great for testing content, but it doesn't build familiarity. Pick one face and stick with it.

Onboarding
Add one concrete promise up front, like "Increase your GPA", so people who find you on their own know exactly what they get. The first onboarding screen is unclear; the second and the streak screen are good. Notifications are asked at the right moment. 👍

UI
Really good: clean, simple, nice glass effect. The empty home screen forcing "Get Started" works well. Optional: a subtle swipe animation in the nav bar.

Courses & syllabus scan

  • The + button has no "type my classes" option, unlike the main screen.
  • Adding a second course felt like editing the previous one.
  • "Read Syllabus" sits below the fold, likely pushed down by the premium banner.
  • Scanned multiple syllabi, only one course was added. The one from my second image was dropped. If it's a premium limit, say so.

Course colours
Courses show different colours, but I couldn't figure out what they mean, and nothing explains it. That's a missed opportunity. Use a clear scale: red at risk → yellow behind → green on track → extra green above target, and add an info icon. Then the Courses tab shows at a glance what needs work.

What-If simulator
I couldn't find it. The closest was the grade simulator under GPA ("What happens if you score higher?"), which only goes up. The -1/+1/+5 buttons are unnecessary next to the slider, and page scrolling interferes with the slider.

Grading systems
Converting targets into letter grades (D+, A+) is very cool. The simulator only uses percentages though, while parts of Europe use 1–10 and Germany runs in reverse (1 is best). Worth supporting if you target those markets.

Home screen & guidance ⭐ biggest point
With this many features, I lost the plot at some point. Use the home screen to show mini versions of other sections (e.g. the study plan).
Adding classes, deadlines, homework and syllabi is already really easy, so push users to add everything as early as possible, e.g. at the start of each session. Once everything is in, you can actually tell them "this is what's next", and the home screen is the perfect place for that.

Focus timer & paywall
Timer works, linking to sessions is nice, but it's not very exciting. Sign-up and paywall timing are excellent; "Save my semester" is a strong CTA.

Your questions
Liked: UI, timing of asks, everything works without login or paying.
Confusing: colours, what to do next, finding the simulator.
Target grade: yes, very clear.
Study plan fits my week: yes.
Broke: multi-syllabus scan, slider vs. scroll.
Would I use it: yes, if I had classes. No reason not to download it as a student.

Top priorities

  1. Get users to add everything early, then guide "what's next" on the home screen
  2. Fix + explain the colour logic
  3. Make the What-If simulator findable
  4. Fix multi-syllabus scanning
  5. Clearer first onboarding screen
