How to get the most out of Logger.
Logger can be installed directly on your device — it works offline, opens from your home screen or desktop, and behaves like a native app. No app store required.
Once installed, Logger loads instantly and works without an internet connection. Your data is always stored locally — installing the app does not change where your data is saved.
Here's the full workflow from setup to transcript for a class that will appear on a high school transcript.
Go to Settings → School Years and add a school year (e.g. "2024–2025") with start and end dates. While you're there, set hour goals for the child if you want progress tracking. This is the foundation everything else ties to. If you need to adjust dates or goals later, each school year card has an ✎ Edit button.
Still in Settings, go to Core vs Elective Subjects and toggle the subject the class falls under (e.g. "English") to Core. Core hours are tracked separately and feed into the transcript's credit calculations.
Go to the Classes tab and add a new class:
If the class meets every Tuesday, go to the Recurring tab and add a recurring activity for that child, subject, and day. Sessions are logged automatically — no action needed. Each past session date is entered into history as soon as it comes due, so your log stays current without any manual step.
Recurring sessions are logged without a score. To add a grade after an assessment, go to the History tab, find the entry, and double-click the row to edit it — update the Score and Notes fields, then save.
If a class is not set up as recurring (e.g. it doesn't meet on a fixed schedule), log it manually from the Log Hours tab: click the class chip in the Classes box to auto-fill the subject, hours, and curriculum, then pick the child, set the date, add a score if applicable, and click Log Entry.
The Transcript tab automatically aggregates everything. For each school year it shows:
You can also add standardized test scores (SAT, ACT, etc.) and extracurriculars directly on the Transcript tab. When ready, hit the print/PDF button for a clean, formatted transcript with a signature line.
Credits come from hours — 120 hours logged to a subject in a school year = 1 credit, rounded to the nearest 0.5. So if a class is worth 1 credit, you're aiming to log roughly 120 hours against it over the year. The transcript reflects whatever has actually been logged, so consistent entry over the year matters more than any single setup step.
For classes taught through an external program — Google Classroom, an online co-op, a dual enrollment college course — the final grade is determined by that program, not by individual activity scores. In these cases, enter the grade directly on the class using the Final Grade field in the Classes tab.
You can enter a letter grade (A, A-, B+, B, etc.), a numeric score (93, 87, etc.), or P / F for Pass/Fail classes. When a Final Grade is set on a class, it overrides whatever was calculated from individual activity scores — the transcript uses only the entered grade for that class's letter and GPA. Hours and credits are still calculated from what was actually logged.
You can also store downloaded course materials using the Materials Folder field — enter a local folder path or URL. This is for your internal reference only and never appears on the transcript.
Colleges and accrediting bodies may ask for evidence that a class qualifies for high school credit. Here's a checklist of documentation that demonstrates a rigorous, well-documented course. You don't need every item, but having a file for each class makes the transcript stand up to scrutiny.
Best practice: Create one folder per class per year (e.g. 2024-2025/English-101/) and store all supporting documents in that folder.
In Logger, use the Materials Folder field on the class to link to this folder. You can enter a local file path (e.g. /Documents/Homeschool/2024-2025/English-101) or a cloud link (e.g. Google Drive, Dropbox). This link is for your reference only and will not appear on the transcript.
When a college or accrediting body asks for documentation, you'll have everything in one place and ready to share.
Pro tip: Keep a shared cloud folder for all years and classes. You only need to maintain it if you later need to submit documentation — otherwise it's just insurance.
