TeachBook 2.0 saves you time, in class and after. • Grade dictation: in the gradebook, tap “⋯” below an assessment, then “Dictate grades”, and say “Lucas 92”: TeachBook finds the student and enters the grade. “Absent” and “not graded” work too. Everything is processed on your device. • Siri: ask “What did I plan for my next class in TeachBook?” and Siri reads your planner notes, even handwritten ones. You can also log an observation, or get a summary for a student or a class. • Class list import: photo, scan, PDF, CSV file or an export from your school system. TeachBook creates the students, birth dates included, and you review everything before adding. • Multi-page notepad: “Create Tasks” turns your handwriting into to-dos, with a reminder whenever a date is written. • Below each assessment, the “⋯” button copies the whole column of grades, ready to paste into your software or a spreadsheet, or opens the assessment for editing. • A puzzle piece next to a first name shows which students have accommodations; tap it to see the list. • A faster gradebook, averages to two decimals, weights with two decimals, and averages that animate when a grade changes. • Settings › Tips: what to say to Siri and the easy-to-miss gestures, explained step by step with screenshots.

This update speeds up entering grades and transferring them. • Copy and paste into your school gradebook: in the gradebook, long-press (right-click on Mac) an assessment's title to copy its whole column of grades, in alphabetical order of students. On a student's name, their full row is copied, ready to paste into a spreadsheet. • With a keyboard, Return confirms the grade and moves straight to the next student. • Color-coded comparison chart: green above the average plus one standard deviation, orange within that range, red below. • Data received from another device through iCloud now appears immediately, without leaving the app. • On Mac, the cursor shows again in the "Graded out of" and "Weight" fields. • Settings › Data & iCloud now tells you when your entries are saved but not yet uploaded to iCloud.

This update improves how iCloud sync is monitored. • When iCloud rejects an upload, the sync report (Settings › Data & iCloud) now states the exact cause instead of a generic error code. • If sync cannot start when the app opens, the reason is now recorded in the same report. • No data is changed: your classes, grades, lessons and documents stay intact, both on your device and in iCloud.

This update fixes an app that would not start on devices still running iOS, iPadOS or macOS 26. • On those devices, TeachBook closed immediately on opening, without ever showing its home screen. The app now starts normally again. • No data was affected: your classes, grades, lessons and documents are intact, both on your device and in iCloud. Nothing else changes in this version.

An update about reliability: iCloud sync first — making it fast, making it legible, and above all making sure it loses nothing — then three everyday improvements. SYNC THAT LOSES NOTHING • When you open TeachBook, your device waits until it has received what you did elsewhere before sending anything back: an older change can no longer overwrite a newer one. • The same precaution applies when you come back to the app after a long time away. • What you type goes to iCloud as soon as you stop writing, without waiting for you to leave the app. • If the device can't save, TeachBook keeps retrying instead of giving up — and tells you, rather than leaving your entries in limbo. YOU CAN FINALLY SEE WHAT'S GOING ON • A pill appears at the top of the screen while data comes in, goes out, or when something is stuck. It never blocks what you're doing. • iCloud errors are explained in plain words: what is blocking, what you can do about it, and whether syncing has really stopped. • Settings ▸ Data & iCloud keeps a log: what went out, what came in, what failed. It is one tap away to share, and holds no student data. BACKUPS ON YOUR OWN DEVICE • TeachBook keeps dated copies of all your data, independently of iCloud: they stay available even when syncing misbehaves. • Restore one alongside your current data — nothing is deleted, you compare then tidy up — or in its place, with a safety copy taken first. • They hold all your text and handwriting. For photos and attached documents, the full export stays in “My data”. CLASS SLOTS CAN BE FIXED • Tap a slot in a class sheet: you can now EDIT it — day, times, recurrence, room — instead of having to delete it and start over. • A slot created on the wrong class moves to the right one, taking the lesson notes already written on it along with it. YOUR TO-DO LIST CLEARS ITSELF • Ticked tasks are removed overnight: your list only keeps what you actually have left to do. YOUR TIMETABLE READS AT A GLANCE • On the Home screen and in the widget, every class in the grid shows its time and room — 50-minute periods included. • Week A or B sits right next to the class name.

An update devoted to Home Screen widgets, and to handwritten notes that follow you from one device to the next. WIDGETS THAT DO MORE • “To-do” is now interactive: tick a task straight from your Home Screen, without opening the app. The tick is picked up in TeachBook, then synced. • “Today” now comes in a SMALL size: the time, color and name of your next three classes in one square. • The “Timetable” widget shows each class time next to the room. • “Next class” stays accurate in every situation: it works out your upcoming classes from your timetable itself, including after a weekend or a holiday without opening the app. YOUR HANDWRITING, THE RIGHT SIZE • The planner and the notepad scale your handwriting to whichever screen you open them on. • What you write on a large screen no longer spills over on a smaller one: everything stays visible, without distortion. TYPED LESSON NOTES • The expanded view of a class now offers two modes: Apple Pencil or keyboard. Both contents live side by side — switching mode erases nothing. • On Mac, where there is no Apple Pencil, the keyboard is offered from the start. FIXES • Erasing all your data no longer quits the app on Mac. • The “Continue” button on the What's New screen now responds across its full width. • Settings ▸ Data & iCloud now tells “last upload” from “last download”, shows your iCloud account status and surfaces sync errors, instead of a single date that could be falsely reassuring.

Two additions teachers asked for: your data, yours to take away at last, and every document you print gathered in one place. YOUR DATA, IN ONE FILE • Settings ▸ Privacy ▸ “My data”: export your whole database to a single file you keep wherever you like. • Everything is in it: planners, classes, students, grades, timetables, observations — and, if you want them, photos, PDFs, wallpapers and handwritten notes. • Load that file back on another device, or on this one later. Importing ADDS the data: nothing is replaced, nothing is erased. • Nothing is sent to the developer: the file stays on your device until you decide where it goes. PRINTABLES: ALL YOUR PDFs IN ONE PLACE • A new section at the bottom of a class page gathers everything you print. • Blank class list, gradebook, student info sheets, student report sheets and submission tracking — in portrait or landscape, for the whole year or for one term. • New: the PHOTO ROSTER. Photos and names in a grid, to learn your classes in September or to hand to a substitute teacher. • Exports that used to be scattered around the app now sit together, right where you look when you simply want to print something.

The biggest update since launch. TeachBook now adapts to the way you work: your Home screen, your week, your teaching days, and even where your data lives. A HOME SCREEN YOU ARRANGE • An Edit button switches Home into rearrange mode: the widgets wiggle, just like on your device's Home Screen. • Move a widget with a long press, remove it with the red badge, add one from the green button. • Set the width of the two columns by dragging the handle between them. • Two layouts remembered separately: one for iPad, one for iPhone. YOUR WHOLE WEEK • A new block shows your weekly timetable, all classes together. • The same view is available as a widget on your device's Home Screen, without opening the app. A TIMETABLE THAT FITS YOU • Choose the days you teach, Saturday and Sunday included, when creating a planner or later in Settings. • Set the row height, just as you already set the column width. • A day you untick that still has a lesson stays visible: no slot ever disappears. ABSENCES AND GRADES THAT DON'T COUNT • Mark a grade “A” for absent, “NA” for not assessed, or in brackets for a grade that shouldn't weigh in. • Write them straight from the keyboard or with Apple Pencil, or pick them with a long press on the cell. • These grades stay visible but drop out of every average, including charts and the class average. TWO NEW PDF EXPORTS • A class list with blank columns to fill in by hand: attendance, participation, equipment, whatever you need. • A term's gradebook, with each student's average. • Both in portrait or landscape, with automatic layout across several pages. YOUR DATA, YOUR CALL • A new page asks you at first launch whether you'd rather keep everything on this device, without iCloud. • The setting stays changeable at any time, and Settings now shows the date of the last sync. • All of it explained plainly, GDPR included: your iCloud data sits in your own private database, and nobody else can reach it. ALSO • The Home mini calendar now follows your finger: the next month slides along with you. • Toolbar buttons are spaced apart from each other, easier to aim at. • The gradebook's yearly view now uses the full width properly. Thank you to everyone who writes in: this version comes almost entirely from your feedback.

Got a promo code? The subscription screen now offers "I have a promo code" and opens the App Store redemption sheet directly, without leaving TeachBook.

This update fixes several first-launch and sync issues reported by early users. • Fixed: the app could crash on launch on Mac (Apple Silicon). • Fixed: on a device already in use, TeachBook could wrongly offer to create a new planner before your iCloud data had arrived. A new welcome screen now keeps you posted while your data is restored. • Fixed: on first launch, the welcome flow and the subscription screen could loop. • Subscription: reinstalling the app now recognizes your subscription automatically, with no password. "Restore purchases" is much easier to find, and prices no longer flash while your status is being checked. • New: Settings → General → "Delete all data" fully erases your data (double confirmation; your subscription is unaffected). • If iCloud is temporarily unavailable, the app still opens with your local data. • Seating chart: the helper text no longer overflows the room, and rendering is smoother. • Various text, translation and stability fixes.
