Study ClassTrack vs Power Planner
ClassTrack vs Power Planner compared on timetables, AI, grades and GPA, platforms and price (subscription vs one-time $4.99), with an honest verdict.
Short answer
Choose Power Planner if you want detailed grade tracking (weighted grades, credits, pass/fail, extra credit), a Week A/B schedule, Windows or Mac apps, and a one-time $4.99 upgrade instead of a subscription. Choose ClassTrack if you are on Android and want AI help: timetable import from a photo or PDF, topic-by-topic study plans and a study assistant, plus attendance tracking.

About Power Planner
Power Planner is a homework and grade planner that runs on iPhone, iPad, Android, Chromebook, Windows, Mac and the web (beta), synced through one account. It is mostly free; a one-time $4.99 Premium purchase removes the free limits on every platform. Its strength is grades: weighted categories, credits, pass/fail classes, extra credit and custom GPA scales.
About ClassTrack
ClassTrack is a free study planner app for students on Android, for high school, college and university. It keeps your class timetable, homework, exam countdowns, grades and attendance in one place, and adds AI: it reads your timetable from a photo, PDF or text, builds topic-by-topic learning plans up to your deadline, and answers questions about your own classes and exams. Its gaps today: no iPhone or web app yet, no rotating timetables, and fewer store reviews than older apps.
Choose ClassTrack if…
- You use an Android phone.
- You want to import your timetable from a photo or PDF instead of typing it.
- You want AI to build a study plan with time estimates up to your exam date.
- Your college tracks attendance and you need to stay above a minimum.
- You want a countdown for every exam on your home screen.
Choose Power Planner if…
- You want a one-time purchase, not a subscription.
- You track weighted grades in detail, including pass/fail and extra credit.
- Your school runs a Week A/B schedule.
- You want the same planner on Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android.
- You do not need AI features.
Still unsure? Use one app for two full weeks before switching. The planner that works is the one you open every morning. Our guide on how to set up a study planner app works for both.
