User Reviews

Users praise Homework Pal for its simple, clean UI, color-coding, automatic sorting, and strong usefulness for staying organized. However, multiple reviews describe data loss during updates, mid-semester transitions, and a shift to a more complex/less approachable interface. The introduction of ads and a paid version, along with data-port concerns and accessibility gaps, has caused frustration. Overall, it remains valued for simplicity and effectiveness, but changes have caused trust and usability issues.

Pros

Simple, clean, and easy-to-use interface.
Color-coding by course helps visually distinguish assignments.
Automatic sorting by due date and moving completed tasks to a separate page.
Free to use with no base-cost features required.
Helps users stay organized and not miss assignments.

Cons

Data loss during updates or mid-semester transitions with no easy way to port data.
The newer version is overly complex and detracts from the original simplicity.
Ads and a paid upgrade disrupt access and push users toward a different app.
Accessibility improvements are needed (e.g., date selection for VoiceOver).
Some users report missing or disappearing completed tasks.

Recent reviews

The original Homework Pal was great for college and postgrad. Then they just decided to “update” it. AKA made an entirely separate app called “Homeroom”. They said “don’t worry you can transfer the data”. But when you opened Homework Pal half of your original data was missing, so what little you are able to transfer is just gibberish. The Homeroom app doesn’t allow you to delete courses. That function totally breaks the app. And this function is broken TEN months since the app was launched. Newer rarely means better.

The new update is nice and all but it’s really over complicated in my opinion. I feel like both versions of the app should be made, the simple one (how it was before) and the more complex one (how it is now), so people could navigate how they want to organize their work
