In short

An assignment tracker that works back from the due date

Assignment Tracker & Student Planner is a one-time download: an offline web app (no account needed) plus a separate Google Sheets™ template (free Google account) for tracking assignments, exams and readings – and for seeing when to start each one. No subscription.

A due date tells you when something ends, not when to begin. This assignment tracker for Google Sheets and your browser works back from it: you add each assignment, exam, quiz, reading or project with its exact due time, split it into small steps with minutes, and set one study window per weekday. The backward planner places the open minutes into those windows, counting back from the due time and your buffer, and shows a start-by time.

It doesn't book anything into a calendar, doesn't connect to your school or university and doesn't predict grades – averages come only from the grades you type in. The start-by time is a suggestion, not an appointment.

An organizing tool – not a medical tool.

What it does

Assignments and small steps

Five types: assignment, exam, quiz, reading and project – each with course, exact due time, priority and buffer
Sorted into overdue, due today, upcoming and completed
Up to 20 steps per assignment, each with minutes and energy (1–5); tick done, start, skip or reorder them
Progress comes from your steps – skipped steps don't count
“Mark submitted” is separate from the steps – an assignment is complete only when you say so, and you can undo it

Backward planner

Works back from the due time, your buffer and the minutes left in open steps
One study window per weekday, with times you choose
A start-by time for every open assignment
A warning when the start time has passed or study time runs short – a suggestion, nothing is booked

Timetable, exams and study sessions

Weekly schedule in a time grid, with teacher, color and class times per course
Deadline markers at the exact due time, a countdown to the next exam and a 14-day deadline strip
Study matcher: choose energy and minutes and see every fitting step; “Surprise me” picks one by a fixed rule
Plan a study session or log one afterwards – sessions never tick off steps for you

Grades and course progress

Your own grades in percent, with an optional weight
Simple and weighted average per course – no predictions, no grade conversion
Course progress from your steps, plus charts for steps done, study time and workload

More about how it works

want averages from your own grades, without predictions

Maybe not the right fit if you …

want a visual timer that runs your focus sprints while you study. Focus Sprint & Visual Study Timer →
need one big task outside school broken into 2–5 minute steps. Task Breakdown Planner →
want to plan your whole day as blocks of time. Visual Time Blocking Planner →
need what it doesn't have – no school-system link, no shared calendars, no reminders.

Questions about the Assignment Tracker & Student Planner

Does it connect to my school or university?

No. It doesn't link to any school or university system. You add your courses, class times and due dates yourself.

Do I need an account?

The web app needs no account – you open the file in your browser. The Google Sheets version needs a free Google account. Either way, there is no stillmeasure. account and no subscription.

Where is my data saved – and do the two versions sync?

In the web app, it's saved in your browser on that device, not inside the HTML file – so download a backup now and then. In Google Sheets, it's in your own copy in Google Drive. The two versions don't sync.

Does it work on my iPhone?

iPhone & iPad: open the web-app link from your START HERE guide in Safari and add it to your Home Screen. A downloaded HTML file on its own only opens as a preview on iPhone and iPad.

Why is my start-by time in the past?

There wasn't enough study time in your windows before the due time. Widen a study window, add a day or lower the buffer.

I ticked every step – why is the assignment still open?

Steps and submitting are separate – click Mark submitted (or Mark taken) when you hand it in.

Can I use it in Excel?

It isn't supported. The spreadsheet is made for Google Sheets.
