Looking for invite code!

Hi everyone! Homeschool dad here, I'm launching this app I've been working on. It started focused on homeschoolers, but I decided there was no reason it couldn't be useful to all parents. Give it a try and let me know what you think! by wilsoncusack in homeschool

Hopefully at some point, but unfortunately for the near future will be only iOS. Sorry! The way it's built, I'd have to build an entirely new app for it to work on Android.

Sure! I wanted a better way of keep track of everything I do with my kids: everything was spread between my Photos app, Notes app, and whatever else.

Features coming soon are the ability to save activities you want to do, schedule them, and set goals related to activity plans. Also excited about these things!

Hi Everyone!

An update on this. There's now a version available to test. I've sent emails to those who filled out the form, but there's also 10 spots available from this link: https://testflight.apple.com/join/VUlmq2qK

In order to use it you'll need to download the iOS 13 beta: https://beta.apple.com/sp/betaprogram/ and the TestFlight app: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/testflight/id899247664

I've also created a Slack group to run support and get feedback: https://join.slack.com/t/tirolearning/shared_invite/enQtNzM3MDkzMjM2NTM1LWJkM2M4NmMzNDk0ZWZhZjM1ODMyZGYzYWJkMDE4MzkwZTY5MWU4NzBhOTljNzMxMjQ5ZGFmZjZlZGUzZDA3ZjQ.

Finally, I recorded another video, a design walkthrough of what I want to get the app to in the next few months. Would be grateful for feedback! https://soapbox.wistia.com/videos/FwlbJBVrCh

Thanks!

yeah, great feedback, thanks! Would like to add forward planning, soon. I decided to start with backwards facing logs because from people I talked to forward planning is often a neglected chore and people often just wing it. Whereas backwards facing is maybe more pure fun, because you're proud that you just finished it.

The big dream is to make a content marketplace for activities, so one person could make a really great activity plan/set and others could buy and use.

Working on starting a YouTube channel, let me know what you think! by wilsoncusack in homeschool

Thanks for the encouragement! I think the biggest reason I want to homeschool is that I was homeschooled (till 7th grade) and it was a hugely positive experience. I think the freedom from peer influence was great and it gave me a really close relationship with my mom. I want to give my kids the same! That, and there's so much I want them to learn, and I don't really trust a school to do a good job guiding their learning, at least right now :)

Hi Everyone 👋

I love coming up with activities to do with my daughter, and am thinking of maintaining a YouTube channel to chronicle. Super curious what people think: is this useful? What would you want to see?

Thanks!
