Getting Started with Assignd (Web & Mobile)

Assignd is a planner designed to keep all your assignments, exams, and to-dos in one organized place. This guide walks you through the basics so you can go from “just signed up” to “actually using it” in a few minutes.

Creating your account

You can sign up using:

  • Your email and a password, or

  • A supported single sign-on (if your school uses it, depending on your implementation)

After signing up, you’ll be prompted to:

  1. Enter your name – this helps personalize your experience.

  2. Choose your school level (middle school, high school, college, etc.).

  3. Pick your time zone so due dates and reminders fire at the right time.

Adding your first classes

  1. Go to Classes (or “Schedule”) in the sidebar.

  2. Click “Add Class”.

  3. Enter:

    • Class name (e.g., “AP U.S. History”)

    • Teacher (optional)

    • Days and times you have the class

  4. Save the class.

You can always edit these later if your schedule changes.

Creating assignments and tests

  1. Go to Assignments or the main planner view.

  2. Click “Add Assignment” or the “+” button.

  3. Fill out:

    • Title (e.g., “Chapter 5 reading quiz”)

    • Class

    • Due date (and time if needed)

    • Type (Homework, Quiz, Test, Project, etc.)

    • Optional: notes or links (e.g., Google Docs, PDFs)

Hit Save and it will appear in your planner and calendar.

Using the dashboard

The dashboard is your “today view”:

  • See what’s due today and this week

  • Quick-add tasks

  • Check off items once you finish them

Next steps

Once you’re comfortable with the basics, we recommend:

  • Turning on notifications

  • Syncing with your calendar (if supported)

  • Setting up recurring tasks (like weekly problem sets)
