Adding students

Your students are the foundation of every schedule. This guide covers the three ways to add them, what information each student holds, and how to manage a growing list.

Add a student

Open the Add tab and choose Add Student. Each student has:

• Name — how they appear in your schedules and exports.
• Activity or course — what you teach them (e.g. "Piano", "Spanish", "Tennis"). Lessons are colour-coded by activity, so all your piano students share a colour.
• Lesson duration — how long their lesson is, in minutes.
• Notes (optional) — anything you want to remember.

Once saved, set when they're free — see Setting availability.

Quick Add several at once

Setting up a whole studio? Quick Add (on the Add tab) lets you type student names one after another without leaving the screen — great for getting everyone in fast. You can fill in activities, durations, and availability afterwards.

Import from a spreadsheet

If your students already live in Excel, a CSV, or Google Sheets, you can bring the whole list in at once — names and availability together. See Importing and exporting.

Managing your list

On the Students tab you can:

• Search by name, and sort (A–Z, recently added, by activity, and more).
• Filter — for example, show only students missing availability, or those in a group.
• Swipe a student to delete them (with undo if you change your mind).
• Tap a student to edit anything about them at any time.

Good to know

• The free plan covers up to 8 students; Pro removes the limit entirely.
• Delete a student by mistake and an undo option appears right away. Deleting also won't corrupt an existing schedule — their slot is kept and clearly marked so you can regenerate when ready.
• You can add everyone first and fill in availability later; a filter helps you find who's still missing it.
• Setting an activity is optional, but adding one enables colour-coding and smart group suggestions based on matching activities.
