A native Android client for COMSATS University Islamabad, Abbottabad Campus (CUIIT) students
to manage academic life, track attendance, view results, and submit assignments — without ever opening a browser.
Battle-tested. This app has been personally used by the developer to navigate academic life and submit real assignments through the COMSATS student portal. Every feature has been validated in production, not just on paper.
Assignly is an all-in-one Android client for the COMSATS Student Information System (SIS) portal. It transforms the clunky web experience into a native mobile app — complete with a central dashboard, attendance insights, result tracking, fee management, and a smart timetable.
No more fighting with broken mobile web layouts, missed deadlines, or forgotten lecture rooms.
The heart of the app. A unified hub that surfaces your entire academic status:
- Student Identity Card: Shows your profile photo, registration number, program, and section.
- Smart Badge: Automatically detects and highlights your Scholarship Status.
- Academic Snapshot: At-a-glance view of your current CGPA, average Attendance, and total Registered Credits.
- Quick Shortcuts: One-tap access to all portal modules (Timetable, Result, Fee, etc.).
A live timetable that ensures you're never late for a lecture:
- Live "Now" Indicator: Highlights the class currently in progress with a real-time progress bar.
- Next Class Widget: Shows exactly what's coming up next and how long until it starts.
- Swipeable Days: Smoothly navigate between Monday and Saturday.
- Offline Caching: Your schedule is saved locally; check your room number even without internet.
- Smart Reminders: Automated notifications before each class starts.
Stay on top of your presence:
- Aggregate Percentage: See your total attendance average across all courses.
- Detailed Logs: Drill down into any course to see a full history of presents, absences, and leaves.
- Attendance Insights: Displays a sarcastic (but helpful) status message based on your attendance levels.
Manage your submissions with ease:
- Clean Search & Filters: Quickly find assignments by subject or filter by Due Today, Next 3 Days, or Next 7 Days.
- Long-Press Actions: Copy titles or jump directly to the course portal via a context menu.
- Instruction Downloads: One-tap fetch for instruction files (handles redirects and PostBack triggers).
- Flexible Uploads: Pick any file and upload with background support. Refresh is automatic.
- Submission History: A dedicated screen for submitted and closed assignments with instructor feedback.
Check your performance without the stress:
- Result History: View your GPA/CGPA and course grades for every completed semester.
- Internal Marks: Real-time view of Sessional 1, Sessional 2, Quizzes, and Assignments marks.
- Marks Notifications: Get notified the moment a professor uploads a new sessional or quiz result.
- Biometric App Lock: Secure your academic data with Fingerprint/Face ID.
- Encrypted Storage: Credentials are stored using Android AES-256 encryption.
- Password Management: Change your portal password directly from the app with built-in rule validation.
- Session Sync: Smart WebView session syncing for CAPTCHA handling and login persistence.
