Starting college this fall? Connect Canva (or Brightspace, Moodle or more), add your syllabi, and never wonder what's due. Works at all schools!
Ever realize at 11pm that something might be due tomorrow — but you're not sure, so you have to check Canvas, dig through your email, and open that 47-page syllabus PDF just to find out?
Yeah. That's why we built DormWay.
DormWay pulls everything together — your syllabi, Canvas assignments, calendar events — and shows you exactly what's due and when. No more juggling five different apps. No more Sunday night scramble.
Do Now. Up Next. Due Soon. Always current.
WHAT DORMWAY DOES
Upload a syllabus and get a full breakdown in minutes — assignments, deadlines, exam dates, grading breakdown, late policy. Everything that matters, without reading 47 pages.
Connect Canvas and your assignments auto-sync across all your classes. No manual entry. No checking Canvas every hour "just in case."
Ask Ace anything about your courses. When's my ECON 301 final? What's the late policy in CS 101? What do I need on the final to get a B? Ace knows your syllabi — not generic internet answers, your actual materials.
See your whole semester before it eats you alive. Conflicts, crunch weeks, back-to-back deadlines — visible before they become a crisis.
WHY STUDENTS TRUST DORMWAY
Works at 6,134+ schools, every college in the US — no IT approval needed, no university partnership required. If your school uses Canvas, Moodle, or Brightspace, DormWay works.
Free forever. No premium tiers, no paywalls, no "upgrade to see your deadlines." Everything is free.
Your data stays yours. We never sell your data to third parties. We never share it with your university. Read-only access to your LMS — we can see your assignments, we can't touch them. You can export or delete everything anytime.
Built by a student who needed it to survive. Riley (22, University of Michigan) built DormWay because he was drowning in syllabi and missed things constantly. He still uses it every day — still in classes.
HOW IT WORKS
Upload your syllabi — email them to syllabus@dormway.app or add them directly in the app
Connect Canvas (or Moodle or Brightspace) — one tap, read-only access
See everything — Do Now, Up Next, Due Soon, always current across all your classes
That's it. No elaborate setup. No system to maintain. It updates itself.
Stop wondering what's due.

I love the idea of this app, and I think it could be extremely helpful with some fine tuning. Currently I am having the issue that my classes are popping up five times on my schedule as if I have five things happening at the same time. The task panel isn't working for me at all either, and I wish I could change some of the due dates because syllabi do not always stay the same throughout the semester. I think uploading all of my documents may have overloaded the app and it is still catching up, so I am hopeful that with some times these issues will be resolved and all of my information will be accessible as it should be. Overall, I am very excited about this app, I just wish it worked a little better!

Exceptional app

This planner literally took all of my academic anxiety about due dates off of my shoulders. I uploaded my syllabuses for each of my college classes and it immediately gave me a to do list that didn’t miss a thing. The organization and layout is extremely user friendly and simple yet engaging! I wish there was a way to delete an account or remove courses once they’ve been added though because the first time I accidentally added a duplicate and couldn’t remove it. I wasn’t expecting it to be anything exceptional, but Im sooo glad I found it and will use it for the rest of my academic career. Totally shocked this app is free??? I would pay for it!

Amazing App!!!!!

I recently downloaded the app, and it is much MUCH better than many app like it before that I have used! I especially love that it’s FREE!!! As a college student who doesn’t make a lot, I like to save money where I can, so no in app purchases are great!I did notice there were quite a few bugs that could be fixed (being a new app, completely understandable) so I emailed support, and Ethan responded back within two minutes saying that these things would be looked at as soon as possible. Very much appreciated!
Needs Fixing but Potential
Recorder no. random
I liked all the features of dormway and everything but I couldnt get rid of pesky notifications. I like to clear all my notifs in one go and changing my profiles notification settings would say they were saved but they would revert back when I went back into the setting, and even the notification bubble on my homescreen would stay!
Bug fix release:
- Find Times in Mix now is accurate (oops)
- You can go back to a Course from the lecture screen (double oops)
