Now fully offline: plan the week, check off work, and write journal entries with no signal at all. Everything syncs the moment you're back online.
Plan, track, and celebrate your family's learning journey — beautifully.
Primer is a homeschool planner built for the rhythm of a real family. One weekly grid shows every child, every subject, every day. A warm "Today" dashboard greets you each morning with what's ready, what's carried over, and what's worth celebrating.
PLAN THE WEEK
• Generate next week's assignments from your subject schedules in seconds — fixed days, frequency targets, or external classes
• Save a great week as a template you can replay all year
• Sunday "Plan Next Week" and Friday "Week Review" rituals built right in
TRACK EVERY CHILD
• Calendar views from a single day to a full year — drag and drop to reshuffle
• Per-child progress rings for each curriculum
• A gentle evening wrap-up surfaces what's incomplete with one-tap "Roll Over to Tomorrow" and "Mark All Complete"
REMEMBER THE MOMENTS
• Daily journal captures the small wins — breakthrough lessons, favorite reads, proud moments
• Attach photos and tags to find any memory later
• A Friday week-review collects one reflection per child
ORGANIZE YOUR LIBRARY
• Save every link, PDF, video, and note in one place
• File by subject, child, or curriculum — track resources from inbox to planned to used
DESIGNED FOR THE FAMILY
• Two-parent and multi-device sharing with your Primer account — both phones, the iPad, your Mac, and the web stay in sync
• Household sharing lets a co-parent see and edit the same plan
• Beautiful typography, warm earth-tone palette, and dark mode
QUIET, FAST, RESPECTFUL
• No ads, no trackers — your family's data stays private to your household
• Works fully offline — plan, check off, journal and log hours with no signal; everything syncs when you reconnect
• Print or export any week to PDF for the binder
Designed and made by a homeschool family.

This planner is well organized and exactly what I was looking for. I have always been a pen and paper planner keeper, but when it comes to tracking my kids school things long term, I thought keeping digital records could be nice. Plus I just finally got a MacBook so I’m going to give this a try since it’s such a great layout on the computer. I still can’t seem to cloud sync my computer planner to my phone but the developer has been so kind and helpful at keeping me updated when changes are being made. I highly recommend this planner for homeschool parents.
Primer now works completely offline — and every device runs the same Primer.
• Full offline planning. Open Primer on a plane, at a co-op, or anywhere with no signal. Plan the week, check off work, write journal entries and log hours — it all syncs the moment you're back online.
• Offline undo. Step back through your recent changes whether or not you're connected.
• A pending badge shows anything still waiting to sync, so you always know where your work stands.
• Faster launches. Primer opens from its own cache instead of waiting on the network.
• One Primer everywhere. iPhone, iPad, Mac and the web now share the same planner, so an improvement lands on every device at once.
• Edge-to-edge on modern iPhones, with the tab bar and buttons clear of the home indicator.
