Your teen has homework. You shouldn't have to manage every step.
Right now you make the list and ask if it got turned in. OneTracker reads Canvas and picks tonight's top 3. It texts your teen the list, then checks Canvas for the turn-in.
- 01You stop making the list. OneTracker picks the top 3 from Canvas and texts it.
- 02You stop saying "start." Texts count down to homework time.
- 03You stop asking "did you turn it in?" OneTracker checks Canvas.
- 04You get a daily update. The dashboard shows what is done and what is not.
The list price is $199 a month. Yours stays $149 for as long as you stay subscribed.
Start OneTrackerOr pay $1,490 for the year. 12 months for the price of 10.Day 14 after setup: school work received and a teen homework text sent, or a full refund.
Does my teen need an app?
No. The teen gets texts and replies. No account, no login, no app.
What if my teen ignores the texts?
OneTracker follows up. If your teen stays quiet, you get a text too, so you know when to step in.
I've tried reminders. How is this different?
A reminder asks. OneTracker checks Canvas to see if the work was turned in.
Is my teen's information safe?
You connect Canvas from your own computer. Grades are never collected.
What if homework isn't in Canvas?
OneTracker can only see what is in Canvas. If a teacher does not post it, the text will not have it.
You've reminded them. You're still the one following up.
Help with the work is one job. Finding it, picking what comes first and checking it went in is another. That second job is still yours.

I know that fight.
I have ADHD. My family spent about $10,000 trying to fix the start.
Planners sat in a drawer. Tutors helped with the work but not the wall before it.
I stopped trying harder and built a system instead.
From tonight's list to what got turned in.

| You, in Canvas | A paper planner | OneTracker | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who makes the list? | You do, from Canvas. | The teen writes it in a planner. | OneTracker pulls it from Canvas and texts it. |
| Who says start? | You do. | Nobody does. | A text does. |
| Who checks the turn-in, every night? | You do, in Canvas. | Nobody checks. | OneTracker checks every DONE. |
| What does the teen have to open? | Nothing, until you ask. | The planner. | A text. |

How the list stays fresh
The Chrome extension reads Canvas when Canvas is open on that computer.
With a Canvas token, the list updates on its own.
If the list is not fresh on a text day, the teen gets no texts. You get a heads-up.
One scoring rule picks the top 3 for the texts and your dashboard.
