Real-time substitution plans and push alerts for school communities
VpMobil Plus delivers real-time substitution plans, timetable views, and push notifications for Android, showing daily and weekly schedule changes in red. Developed by Kannenberg Software GmbH (Indiware), the app connects to the stundenplan24.de service and maps class, teacher, and room timetables. It targets students, parents, and teaching staff at schools using Indiware software, letting each user filter to their individual courses and switch quickly between multiple school schedules.
What is VpMobil used for?
VpMobil shows current timetables for classes, teachers, and rooms by fetching data from the stundenplan24.de host, so users see substitutions, cancellations, and room changes as published by their school. The app highlights any schedule change in red and offers compact and detailed display modes. Users log in with a school number and password supplied by their administration, and the last loaded plan remains viewable when offline.
How does it support learning workflows?
VpMobil supports lesson continuity by sending push notifications immediately when a plan update occurs, reducing missed changes during the school day. Students can configure an individual course view to filter irrelevant entries, and a favorites system lets a user switch between up to ten schedules. Teachers get extra tools such as room search and a supervision plan, which help staff reassign duties and locate available rooms quickly.
Who is it suitable for and how accessible is it?
The app is suitable for students, parents, and educators at institutions that run Indiware's scheduling software, and it supports managing up to five different schools from one account. Access rights are granular, letting schools control what each group sees. The interface offers compact and detailed displays that adapt to quick checks on a phone, and privacy features prevent sharing user data with third parties.
How does it track changes and allow customization?
Progress tracking in traditional learning terms is minimal, because the app focuses on schedule accuracy rather than assessments. It does provide history through the last loaded plan and highlights updates in red for quick recognition. Customization comes through individual course configuration, favorites for switching schedules, and teacher-specific features for supervision and room searches, which tailor the app to different roles within a school.
Clear utility for schools using Indiware, with role-focused design
VpMobil is a practical tool for school communities that need immediate visibility of timetable changes; its push notifications and individual course filters support daily classroom logistics. The app depends on schools publishing accurate substitution data, so its usefulness tracks how diligently the administration maintains schedules. For institutions already on the Indiware platform, it provides targeted, role-specific access to current plans.
