My syllabus isn’t loading… what do I do?
Please make sure you are uploading the syllabus in PDF form. If you are uploading multiple syllabi at one time, it may take longer for the results to populate. If load times are longer than a few minutes, please reach out to openplannerofficial@gmail.com and we will assist ASAP!
Can I export all of my assignments to a separate calendar?
Yes! You can export assignments to Outlook, Google, and Apple calendars. Simply click on an assignment, and you will see these export options in the bottom right of the ‘Edit Assignment’ page. You may be prompted to log in to your calendar provider.
Can I track my assignments on my phone?
Yes! After you have uploaded your syllabi on the website, download our app ‘Open Planner’ on the App Store. Here you can keep track of your assignments and receive notifications.
Can I upload syllabi on the mobile app?
Not at this time. You must upload syllabi in a web browser at open-planner.com
Where can I update my email and password?
Head to the ‘settings’ page to update account info such as your email, password, username, etc. The settings icon can be found at the bottom of the left sidebar.
Can I receive notifications?
Yes! Click into an assignment to pull up the ‘Edit Assignment’ page. At the bottom of this page you will find an option to add a notification. You can add multiple notifications for each assignment (ex. 7 days, 1 day, and 1 hour before an assignment is due).
Can I upload something other than a syllabus to Open Planner?
Yes! While Open Planner is specifically designed to pull due dates from a syllabus, we can read dates from any document. If you have a document with dates that you would like to upload to Open Planner, simply download it as a PDF and follow the same process you would for a syllabus.
What do I do if my question is not answered here?
Please email openplannerofficial@gmail.com and we will get back to you ASAP!
