Exclude Google Calendar when printing
I LOVE that I can view my Google Calendar within my plans. Although when I print my plans for a sub, I really don't like that they see my personal calendar items. Please make it an option to not show calendar items when printing similar to how I can uncheck events or notes, when printing.

Mobile Apps - Add equal size boxes
I like keeping my lessons lined up across the page that way if I finish something one day I can continue to the next days plans without hunting for it. So I would like equal size boxes as a choice when I'm ready to print from the iPad app. Thank you

Quick add for students
There should be an option to "Save and add another" when adding students. The way it is set up now you have to click Save, then it takes you out of the popup box and you have to click add students again to add the next one. It would make for less clicking and a quicker process to add students!

Copy or Add Year - Skip or Preserve blank lesson days
When a school year is copied to create a new year, there should be a prompt that asks if we want any "bumped" days to be copied. There are a few subjects where I have bumped several days, resulting in days that just show my templates, and I must go and delete them all.

Keyboard shortcut to save/close lesson
When creating or editing numerous lesson plans in the desktop or laptop web browser, constantly switching from the keyboard to the mouse is inefficient and frustrating. The more that can be done directly from the keyboard, the better. At a minimum, it would be helpful to be able to save/close the lesson edit dialog without the mouse. A full set of keyboard hotkeys or shortcuts for lesson manipulation would be best.

Assignments types without weights
At this point, I cannot enter the type of assignment (classwork, homework, etc.) without assigning it a weighted percentage. I do not weight my assignments, but rather calculate final grades based on overall points earned/points possible. There should be the ability to assign the type of assignment without forcing you to weight them differently!

Switch plans between days
I re-use plans from the previous year but sometimes need to switch the order of lessons to fit the new schedule. It would be great to simply be able to switch plans rather than have to bump, copy, move, and delete current plans in order to switch them.

Attach RECENT Google Documents
I like how we can attach Google Documents....but...what would be even better... Getting to the document you want can be a pain...especially if it's a document you've been recently working on. At the top of the upload screen...you should have another tab that linkes to "recent documents." Many times I'm working on documents while I'm doing lesson planning...this would save a lot of time attaching my document. To see an example, check out Google Classroom. When I go to post and assignment or annoucement...there are tabs at the top including "Drive" and "Most Recent Documents."

Integrate with Schoology
A lot of teachers seem to be using LMS's (Learning Management Systems) more and more. From my research (and now personal use) Schoology is becoming very popular, but one thing you can't do with Schoology is good lesson planning within the LMS. I know lots of teachers would like a one-stop type place to take care of business (which is why you get requests for things like adding a gradebook to your program), and Schoology integrates third party apps for use right within their system, such as Google Drive, Evernote, Remind, Khan Academy, YouTube, just to name a few. Having…

Make units automatically update
I wish when I entered my units and put the dates in that they would automatically be put into my lesson plans. It seems repetitive to have to put the dates in when I putting my units in and then also have to go to each individual day and add the lesson to the unit.
OR
I know how many days each unit takes. I wish I could enter a start date and then enter how many days the unit will take and it would automatically put it in my plans.

Integrate with Microsoft Outlook Calendar
Since my school uses Microsoft Oulook, my admin send meeting invites and observation appointments through the Outlook calendar. I would like to be able to sync that calendar wtih Planbook.com so I can see my whole schedule for the day in one place instead of having to put each appointment in there manually.

Print My List descriptions independently
While the standards description might not be necessary on the lesson plans, the description for "My List" items might be. It depends how you use that section I suppose. In my case, I'd like to be able to have the descriptions for "My List" items, but not the standards. Also, it would be nice if one could select default options when printing.

Create new unit from lesson editor
It would be nice if when you were making a leson, in the drop down menu to assign a unit, there was an option to "create a new unit." This would make it easy to group sets of lessons that only last for one week.

Attach files to Views (Students, Substitutes, etc)
I would love to be able to upload files to the notes pages. Sometimes there is a particular document that I want students to practice daily but I do not want to write it in my plans daily. Also, if this option was available on the sub notes page I could upload all important documents such as, class lists, fire drill forms, extra handouts etc.

Print without templates
Add a check box under the print options "Templates" just like you have under viewing so that I can print my lessons with or without the templates. I use the templates mostly for details to give a sub. I don't need them printed for myself when I make a hard copy as they are the same every time.
