User guide

Tasky brings everything from school into one place and turns it into a daily plan for the student and a report for you. This guide covers each part in the order you will use it.

👤For parents: your account
  • Log in at /cuenta with your email and password. If you forgot it, use "Forgot my password": you get an email with a button that works for one hour.
  • In My account you see your students, the subscription status (since when and when it renews) and you can change the account language.
  • "My details and report emails": your name and the two emails where the daily report goes.
  • "Change my password": asks for the current one and the new one.

🎒Each student
  • "Edit" opens the student's profile: name, birth date, level, time they leave for school and get back, language (drives their page and their report), a note on how they work best, and their 4-digit key.
  • Their link is a system-generated code (for example tasky.school/k7x2p9wq), never their name. Copy it and send it to them.
  • "Install on the phone": open the link on their phone and add it to the home screen. iPhone: Share → Add to Home Screen. Android: ⋮ menu → Install app. It becomes an app with the Tasky icon.
  • "Connected to Canvas" means Tasky has its read access and renews it by itself. If it says a verification code is needed, the school asked to confirm the login: it happens once.

📚For the student: their page
  • They log in with their 4-digit key. It stays saved for a month on that phone.
  • On opening there is an encouragement message and the Start button. Then the day's plan: at most five tasks, ordered by what is due first, each in short steps with a time.
  • Every step has a checkbox. Links inside the text go straight to the material or the assignment in Canvas.
  • "What the assignment asks" shows the teacher's real instructions and files.
  • When all steps are done, Tasky checks in Canvas whether the work was really turned in: if so, it celebrates; if not, it says what is missing.
  • "I handed it in on paper" appears only on paper assignments. Marking it removes it from overdue; if Canvas still shows it pending after 15 days, it comes back with a reminder to talk to the teacher.
  • The pencil next to the date records a date change announced in class. The original date and the reason are kept. If the teacher announces it by message, Tasky applies it by itself.
  • The chips at the top (overdue, due today, to get ahead, no due date) expand into the list with a link to each task.
  • "Send now" sends the teacher the message Tasky wrote (editable first) and confirms in Canvas that it went out.
  • The flags change the page language. The ◐ button switches between day and night mode.

📊Grades tab
  • Official report-card grades (Focus), by course and period. Each course expands to show the graded assignments and quizzes behind the grade.
  • The overall average comes with its letter on the standard scale (A from 93, B from 83, C from 73, D from 65).
  • In high school and college there is a GPA calculator pre-filled with the real grades: change a letter, the credits or the course type (Regular, Honors, AP) and watch the unweighted and weighted GPA move. Standard 4.0 scale; your district may weight differently.

📧The email report
  • It arrives twice a day, morning and afternoon, in the student's language: overdue and due today with a link to each task, official grades that need attention, unread teacher messages and courses not opened in days.
  • The official grades table highlights in yellow what is NEW or CHANGED since the previous report; red is anything below 75% or a D/F.
  • If Tasky could not read Canvas (for example, an expired access), the report says so in red at the top.

🔒Privacy and security
  • Tasky only reads Canvas. The single write is the message to the teacher, and only when the student presses Send.
  • The Canvas password is stored encrypted and never shown again. You can revoke the access and delete everything from your account.
  • Each student sees only their page; you see all of them from your account.
