Timetable

iPadiPhoneWindowsAndroid

Your timetable drives the rest of PolyNotes: the Today strip, the class name on the phone's camera, where your photos file, and what the Concierge knows about your week.

Three kinds of class

  • A weekly class repeats every week, on the same day and time.
  • A one-week change replaces, cancels or adds a session in one particular week. The weekly class is left as it was.
  • A replacement class happens on one date only.

Every week you look at shows what's really on that week, with all three in the right place.

The weekly timetable iPad · Windows · Android tablet

The weekly timetable in the tablet layout with a column for each day, class blocks from 08:00 to 18:00 and the Today strip above
The week at a glance.

Days run across and hours run down, from 08:00 to 18:00, stretching to fit your earliest and latest class. A full teaching day fits without scrolling.

The Today strip above the week lists today's classes and what's next. It includes one-week changes and replacement classes, so it shows what's really happening today.

See or edit a class

Tap a class for its details. Press and hold to edit it.

Import your Moodle calendar

Import Moodle calendar adds exam and event dates from your synced Moodle courses to your deadlines on Home. It only runs when you tap it, because a Moodle calendar doesn't always match what really happens.

Class details and editing

  • Edit has Name, Replacement class, Date or Day, Starts, Ends, Room and Lecturer. Room and Lecturer are optional.
  • A class has to end after it starts.
  • Delete adapts to what you're removing: Delete Class, Delete Replacement Class or Remove This Week's Change.

Let the AI build it

Send the Concierge a screenshot of your official timetable and it adds every class, with times, rooms and lecturers. Or just tell it: “Add CHE210 on Monday at 10am.” See The Concierge.

Your timetable syncs to your other signed-in devices. See Sync across your devices.
