What is WhatsDue?

WhatsDue is a free and simple way for teachers to share a to-do list with their class.

Why use it?

Efficient

Higher homework turn-in rates

Simple

It takes just a few seconds to send a task

to the entire class

Students and parents prefer receiving a task

over a message because they can set reminders

You’ll no longer hear the excuse: “I didn’t

know about it”

Step 1: Sign up as a teacher at whatsdueapp.com

Step 2: Create a class

All you have to do is give it a short, recognizable name

Step 3: Add some tasks

Just set the due date and write a title & description

WhatsDue works in any language

Tasks appear in a list

This is the join code

Step 4: Invite your class

Each class has a unique 6-letter join code. Students and parents need this code to join

your class in the app.

You can invite them in two ways:

2

Send them an email through WhatsDue

Or, send them the join code however you like

daily notification with a summary of what’s due
