Apps for teachers
Note taking apps for desktop and mobile
A real app on the desk and in your pocket.
Most teachers capture on a phone and think on a laptop. Grape is a real app on both, with the same library in each and lessons and observations landing wherever you are.
Full workspace on desktop: sidebar, editor, chat, canvas and search
Ten second capture on mobile: open, talk or type, done
Keyboard shortcuts on desktop for everything you do often
The same library on every device once sync is on
Desktop for the long work
Writing up, cleaning up and asking bigger questions of everything.
Mobile for the moment it happens
Recording, chat and search are one tap from the note list.
Local on both
Each device keeps its own copy, so a dead connection changes nothing.
Ten second capture on mobile
Open the app, talk or type, and it is already saved when you look up.
Shortcuts for what you repeat
The desktop app has a key for everything you do twice a day.
One library on both
Turn sync on and the desk and the pocket hold the same notes.
What changes
Three things off the Sunday list
Not a feature tour. The three jobs that take less of the weekend once your plans can answer back.
The lesson plan from last year is in a folder called Misc.
Find last year in seconds
Search the way you remember the lesson and get the plan back, along with the notes you left about how it went.
Writing the quiz takes longer than teaching the lesson did.
Make the quiz from the lesson you taught
Generate questions and flashcards straight from your own material instead of writing them from a blank page.
The observation stays in your head until report season, when it is gone.
Keep observations without extra admin
Talk into your phone between classes and read the transcript back when you are writing reports.
A normal term
What that looks like for teachers
Three moments in the year where the app earns its keep.
01
Sunday planning
Pull up the unit folder, adjust last year, and note what you are changing and why.
02
During the week
Record two minutes after a lesson while you still remember what fell flat.
03
Report season
Ask your notes what you recorded about a class over a term and write from that.
The rest of the app
What Else Grape Does
Every part of the app is built around the same idea: keep what you write, and hand it back when you need it.
Questions
Questions Before You Install It
The rest of them live in the help center.
Reuse it every year.
Lesson plans, worksheets, observations and the thing that worked last spring, all in one library you can search by meaning and turn into quiz questions in a minute.
