Every Canvas deadline in your calendar, without typing a thing

Paste your Canvas calendar link and your NUSMods timetable once. Semsync puts your deadlines, classes and exams into Google Calendar, with reminders, and keeps them up to date every hour.

Free. Only touches the events it adds. Delete anytime.

CanvasNUSModsGoogle Calendar

Your whole semester, sorted

Deadlines from Canvas, classes and exams from NUSMods, all in the calendar you already check.

Module code up front

Short titles you can scan, instead of the full Canvas course name in brackets.

Classes and exams on the right weeks

Only the slots you picked on NUSMods, with recess week and holidays skipped, and your final exams too.

Reminders built in

Google Calendar nudges you a day and 3 hours before each deadline, and a week before each exam.

Updates itself

A deadline moves or a new quiz goes up on Canvas, and your calendar follows within the hour.

Set up in about a minute

Three steps, then it runs on its own.

  1. 1

    Sign in with Google

    Just your name and email to start.

  2. 2

    Paste two links

    Your Canvas calendar feed and, if you like, your NUSMods share link. See where to find them.

  3. 3

    Allow calendar access

    Google asks once, so Semsync can make its own "NUS semester" calendar. It can't see your other calendars. On Outlook or Apple Calendar? Get a subscribe link instead.

Stop copying deadlines into your calendar.
Spend that time actually doing them.

Questions

More answers on the Help page, and everything about your data on the privacy page.

Is this an official NUS app?

No. It's made by a student and isn't affiliated with NUS or Instructure. It only reads the calendar feed Canvas already gives you.

What can Semsync access in my Google account?

Only the calendar it makes. Google calls the permission "Make secondary Google calendars, and see, create, change and delete events on them", and it doesn't let Semsync see any other calendar.

Does it work with Outlook or Apple Calendar?

Yes. Choose "Outlook or Apple Calendar" when you set up, or get a subscribe link in Settings, and add it to any calendar app. It stays up to date, though those apps only check it every few hours, and some ignore its reminders.

What happens next semester?

Canvas deadlines keep coming by themselves, and each new term's weeks and holidays are worked out for you. NUSMods links are made one semester at a time, so two weeks before the next one starts, Semsync puts a reminder in your calendar to paste its link.

How do I stop using it?

In Settings, choose Delete my data. That deletes the "NUS semester" calendar, takes back Semsync's access and erases everything it stored about you.
