At homework time, a text says start. You don't.
OneTracker reads your teen's Canvas, texts them the top 3, and counts down to start. Without you checking Canvas, making the list, or asking "did you do it?"
- 01At homework time, a text says "Start now." You don't have to.
- 02After homework time, a text tells you what got done.
- 03The list comes from Canvas, so nobody types it in.
- 04DONE only counts when Canvas shows the turn-in.
The list price is $199 a month. Yours stays $149 for as long as you stay subscribed.

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?
The next texts change their tone. If the teen stays quiet, you get a text too.
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.
Before and after
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.
You set it up once. Here is every evening after that.
What is in it
- 01A connection to Canvas that checks what is due.
- 02One rule that picks today's top 3.
- 03A text with the top 3, then three short countdown texts.
- 04A DONE reply the teen sends when it is finished.
- 05A check against Canvas for every DONE.
- 06A dashboard and a daily update for you.

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.

DONE when it is finished. PAUSE to save progress.
What do I need for setup?
Your Canvas login, a computer with Chrome, and the teen's phone number.
