# A 15-year-old homework app tripled its ranking after it started selling a "bathroom pass"

**What it is** An old student homework app that now mainly sells US middle schools a web-based "classroom pass." Students request to leave class on their school Chromebook, and schools pay under $2 per head.

**Why it's taking off** US states are banning phones in schools, so passes have moved onto the web and demand spiked. The two leaders were each bought by larger companies, and it's positioning as "independent, cheap, and you can reach a real person." It's winning budget-strapped schools, and every school it signs brings a batch of students who open it every class.

**C** **What you could do** Don't build the seventh US hall pass. The better thing to copy is the playbook: bundle an old free tool and its users into a sale to the institutions they belong to, publish comparison pages once the category leaders are acquired, and price below what a principal can sign off on their own.

Grade C: the demand is real, but it rests on a 15-year-old brand, accounts already inside schools, and US K-12 procurement connections that followers can't get. The low-price-alternative route has been crowded for 2025–26 years, and student information systems give the same feature away for free. The playbook is worth studying, but copying it isn't worth the effort. Few people know about this yet

Global rank 158k · 90 days ago 527k

myHomework started as a free student homework planner launched 2009 years ago. Its website has now been fully rebuilt to sell a "digital hall pass" to US middle schools: students tap a button on the school-issued Chromebook to request leaving class. Sign one school and you get a batch of students who open it every class. Its global ranking climbed from 520k to 158k in 90 days, and it kept rising after the back-to-school rush. This piece covers why it took off, who it's competing with, and whether you can take the same path.

### A price comparison piece written for principals

In Mar 2026 2, myHomework's website published a blog post titled "SmartPass vs. myHomework: Why Schools Don't Want to Spend More." It included a comparison table: all three offer a digital hall pass, but only it includes a student homework planner. Its price row reads "under $2/student," while the two rivals are listed at "$5+/student." One of its reasons: "SmartPass was recently acquired by a large company, and many administrators worry it will lose the focus it had."

The same year it published two more: "Why Schools Are Switching from SmartPass and Securly Pass" and "Securly Pass vs myHomework." All three target the same kind of search queries: the ones school buyers type when they look for a "SmartPass alternative."

The company behind it is instin LLC, a private small firm that has never disclosed revenue. Its most valuable asset is a name that has been around for 15 years and that teachers and students recognize.

### What drove the ranking up

First, to be clear: school-type websites spike together every year from 8–September, because it's just back-to-school. So compare against peers (Tranco global ranking, 30-day rolling, 11-05):

| Website | 8-13 (summer low) | 10-01 | 11-05 | Since October |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| myhomeworkapp.com | 625k | 289k | **158k** | Still rising, ×1.8 |
| smartpass.app (category leader) | 137k | 35k | 33k | Flat |
| minga.io | 416k | 110k | 105k | Flat |
| securly.com | 10k | 5,639 | 4,767 | up a little |

In the back-to-school wave, everyone rose three or four times over, which is unsurprising. What stands out is what happened after October: peers flattened out while it climbed steadily from 289k to 158k, moving up almost every day. Chrome real-user data (US, monthly) tells the same story: in May, while schools were still in session, it ranked in the top 50k tier, and by September it had moved into the top 10k. Peers in the same tier, Minga and PikMyKid, didn't budge.

This suggests the semester has started, and either new schools are going live or schools that signed up are rolling it out grade by grade (inference; I can't tell which is more common). Nearly all traffic is in the US and on the web. Its iOS app has only 4,308 ratings, and its last update was in February of 2025. Students use it on school-issued Chromebooks.

Absolute scale is still small, though: SmartPass sits in the top 1k in the US, while it sits in the top 10k, more than an order of magnitude apart.

### Why now

**Phone bans pushed hall passes onto the web.** By late October 2026, 44 US states plus Washington, D.C. had school phone restrictions, and 24 of those states ban phones for the entire school day (per lockedinapp.co). Once phones are collected, students have to request to leave class on their Chromebook, and schools also want to know who left, when, where they went, and how long they stayed. Fights and vaping in bathrooms are the reasons principals cite most often. In August, Philadelphia's entire district adopted digital hall passes, covered by Chalkbeat, NBC, and the Philadelphia Inquirer. The category is expanding.

**Both leaders have been acquired.** e-hallpass was acquired by Securly in 2022, and SmartPass was acquired by Raptor (a campus safety company in private-equity firm Thoma Bravo's portfolio) in 2024 December. myHomework's homepage comparison table specifically includes an "independently run" row, and a customer testimonial says "it's great to deal with a real person."

**Pricing sits below what principals can sign off on.** The Avonworth School District board in Pennsylvania approved a deal: the high school uses myHomework's digital hall pass, with a cap of $2,785 for the 2024-25 school year. That's a few thousand dollars, with no formal procurement process. It says its rivals charge "$5+/student," but public contracts compiled by third parties show SmartPass at roughly $1.90–3.15 and Securly at roughly $3.18. The gap is smaller than it claims, but "never more than $2" looks good in a price comparison table.

**Students don't get a choice.** Once a school signs up, students use it every day. Products like this don't need to worry about retention or social spread: there's almost no discussion of it on X, TikTok, or Reddit. Users come from purchase orders.

### The product itself isn't the advantage

McHenry High School in Illinois used myHomework's hall pass for several years, then switched to Minga for the 2025-26 school year. In the school paper, the McHenry Messenger, principal Gregory Eiserman said the new system is "better at reporting where students are, which is exactly where myHomework is weak." Math teacher Kristian Hokinson said: "With Minga, students scan a QR code when they come in and that's it... MyHomework was just too cumbersome."

The only real product difference it can claim is that the hall pass and student homework planner live in one account. SmartPass and Securly have no planner. But that feels more like one extra checkmark on a comparison chart. It wins on **being cheaper and independent, while demand is rising** , capturing the most budget-constrained tier of schools, not because the product is better.

### Who's competing

| Competitors | What the situation is |
|---|---|
| Raptor SmartPass | Category leader, claims 4,000+ schools, a module inside a safety platform |
| Securly Pass (formerly e-hallpass) | One of the leaders. iOS 10,168 ratings, 1.1 stars, and students hate it (a teacher-edition Reddit post reading "e-hallpass is my nightmare" got 986 upvotes) |
| Minga | Student ID, pass, and QR scan. McHenry switched from myHomework to it |
| Infinite Campus | Built into the student information system, no extra charge. Already in use at 37–38 of Philadelphia's 216 schools |
| Hallwise | $999 per school flat fee, syncs with Google Classroom, also building a comparison page |
| OrangePasses, HallPass EDU, HallPass+, and others | A batch of 2025–26 newcomers, with ratings mostly 0 |

The biggest threat is Infinite Campus: schools already pay for that large system, and it throws in a hall pass. Every standalone hall pass product will get squeezed.

### If it were you

**Verdict:** The business is real, but it's not for newcomers. myHomework got here on three things followers can't get: a 15-year-old brand, accounts already inside schools, and US K-12 procurement and compliance know-how (student privacy agreements, board approvals, school app libraries like Clever). The "cheap SmartPass alternative" route has already been crowded by a batch of players for 2025–26 years, and student information systems give the same feature away for free.

**Who it suits:** People already selling to schools who have teacher users; or people who can work directly with schools in countries like the UK, Canada, and Australia, which are also moving to restrict phones but haven't been fully covered by the big players (inference: these countries have school phone restrictions, but I haven't verified the local hall pass landscape).

**Who it doesn't suit:** Indie developers without education sales experience, who aren't in the US, or who want to rely on SEO or short video for growth. The users here come only from purchase orders.

**If you do pursue it, how:** Don't build the seventh US hall pass. The better thing to copy is its playbook:

1. If you have an old free tool, see whether you can bundle the same users into a sale to the institutions they belong to;

2. After a category leader is acquired by a private-equity firm or a large company, publish "X vs us" and "why we switched from X" comparison pages, positioning as independent, cheap, and staffed by real people;

3. Price below the level a single principal or department head can approve on their own.

**Acquisition:** comparison landing pages that capture purchasing search terms, plus teacher word of mouth and referrals between school districts.

**Timing:** US school purchasing is concentrated in the spring, when next year's budgets are set, so launch between 7 and August. To make the 2027-28 school year, have something demo-ready by March 2027.

**What would show you're wrong:** If by spring 2027, hall passes built into large systems like Infinite Campus and PowerSchool have rolled out widely, and myHomework's ranking stops outpacing its peers after the new school year starts, that would mean the standalone hall pass layer has been absorbed by the big systems.

Where users come from

- **Verified** **School/district procurement, students become daily active users passively** : Avonworth school district board approved the myHomework hall pass for 2024-25 high school with a cap of $2,785; Canyons Hillcrest High, Grass Lake and Triton High tell students to use it on school websites and in handbooks

- **Verified** **Comparison and migration landing pages (SEO)** : three blog posts from the past 2026 years on the official site, "Switching from SmartPass and Securly Pass", "SmartPass vs myHomework", "Securly Pass vs myHomework"; they rank in the top 10 for related comparison searches

- **Verified** **Riding the competitors' acquisitions, playing the "independent" card** : the blog says "SmartPass was recently acquired by a large corporation", and the homepage comparison table has a dedicated "Independently Owned" row

- Inferred **Legacy brand and the installed base of the free planner, listed on Clever App Gallery** : the free planner has been around for 15 years, launched on iOS 2009 years ago, and is listed in the Clever App Gallery

- Inferred **Social, creators, ads** : x-radar shows 90 days, 0 posts; no related content on TikTok; didn't match in the ad library

## Why myhomeworkapp.com (myHomework, instin LLC) is climbing

### One line

myHomework is a free student homework planner that launched in 2009 (iOS first in 2009-01-28, Windows later in 2012). Over the past few years, on the same account system, it has added a **Digital Hall Pass** , Flex/intervention periods, reward points, and parent views. Its website now is a B2B sales page aimed at schools, with the pitch "under $2 per student, while SmartPass and Securly Pass cost $5+" and "an independent company, not a big group." Its ranking climb **is driven less by people viewing the marketing page than by students at signed schools requesting passes in the Chromebook browser every class period** . One high school may generate hundreds to thousands of page visits a day, so signing one school equals a batch of daily active users. This curve therefore reflects how many schools have installed it.

### 1. Data: strip out back-to-school season, then see what's left

**Sites in this category rise together every year from 8 to September** , so compare against peers (traffic library, Tranco 30-day rolling, 2026-11-05 data):

| Domain | 2026-07-30 | 08-13 (summer low) | 10-01 | 11-05 | 10-01→11-05 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| myhomeworkapp.com | 449,848 | 624,941 | 288,992 | **158,381** | **×1.82** |
| smartpass.app(Raptor SmartPass) | 110,170 | 137,475 | 35,435 | 33,491 | ×1.06 (flat by October) |
| securly.com (including Securly Pass) | 7,738 | 10,365 | 5,639 | 4,767 | ×1.18 |
| minga.io | 500,419 | 416,099 | 110,294 | 104,982 | ×1.05 (flat) |
| pikmykid.com | 402,874 | 346,859 | 241,279 | 212,300 | ×1.14 |
| 5starstudents.com | 153,131 | 410,507 | 81,751 | 68,920 | ×1.19 |

US CrUX data (one snapshot a month, latest through 2026-09):

- myHomework: 2026-05 (end of school year, schools still in session) **top 50k** → 2026-09 **top 10k** ;

- SmartPass: 5k → 1k; Securly (pass.securly.com): 1k → 1k; Minga, PikMyKid, PBIS Rewards, 5-Star Students: May and September are **in the same tier** .

Conclusion:

1. The big jump from 8 to September is **mainly back-to-school season** , and peers rose the same way (SmartPass ×4 over the same period, Minga ×4).

2. **It is the only one still climbing after September:** peers flattened out in early October (Tranco is a 30-day average, and flattening means September traffic has stabilized). myHomework went from 1 in October to 5 in November, climbing from 289k to 158k (×1.8), and it grows every day (10-22 213,356 → 11-05 158,381). This suggests its daily actives kept rising from 9 through October, either because new schools went live mid-semester or because signed schools were rolling it out gradually.

3. Compared with May in 2026 (schools still in session), its US CrUX rank moved up a tier, while same-tier peers like Minga and PikMyKid didn't. **There's real share growth, not just seasonality** . But its absolute scale is still more than an order of magnitude smaller than SmartPass (top 1k in the US).

4. Canada 2026-09 top 100k, UK new top 500k, small lift. Vietnam has sat in the top 500k for a while (mostly older student-planner solo users). The bulk of the traffic is US web.

5. **Traffic lands on the web, not the app** : the iOS "myHomework Student Planner" has only 4,308 ratings and was last updated 2025-02-05 (iTunes lookup, 2026-11-06); neither our appstore nor googleplay libraries have it indexed. Students use the web version on school-issued Chromebooks. State laws banning phones during the full school day are exactly what pushes hall passes onto web/Chromebook (its site explicitly says it "strongly encourages our buildings to keep student phones out of the hallways").

### II. Competitors

Digital hall passes are a category with several established players, expanding fast:

| Product | Where | When | Scale | How it differs from myHomework |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Raptor SmartPass | Web + iOS/Android | Launched 2018; acquired by Raptor (a Thoma Bravo portfolio company) in 2024-12-10 | Claims 4,000+ schools; smartpass.app Tranco 33k, US CrUX top 1k | Category leader; one module inside a large security platform; public contracts around $1.90–$3.15/student (public records compiled by Hallwise) |
| Securly Pass (formerly e-hallpass, Eduspire) | Web + iOS | 2022-11 acquired by Securly | iOS 10,168 rating, 1.1 stars; pass.securly.com US top 1k | One of the leaders, with very poor student reviews (Reddit r/Teachers, "e-hallpass is the bane of my existence", 986 upvotes); pricing not public, public contracts about $3.18/student |
| Minga | Web + iOS | 2018 | iOS 7,765 rating; minga.io Tranco 105k | Digital student ID plus hall pass in one, QR check-in; **has already taken customers from myHomework** (see below) |
| Navigate360 Hall Pass / HallPass360 (including PBIS Rewards, acquired) | Web + iOS | 2025-07 on iOS | Not verified | Another module from a major security vendor |
| Built-in hall pass in Infinite Campus | Big-vendor feature (SIS) | Available district-wide in Philadelphia for the 2026-27 school year | 37–38 of Philadelphia's 216 schools already use it (Inquirer 2026-10-07 / NBC) | Built into SIS, no extra cost, a threat to every standalone pass product |
| Hallwise | Web | 2025–26 | hallwise.com US CrUX 2026-09 top 500k | $999/school flat fee, automatic Google Classroom sync, also runs the comparison-page playbook |
| PikMyKid, 5-Star Students, HallTrak, OrangePasses (2025-07), HallPass EDU (2026-06), HallPass+ (2026-05) | Web / iOS | various | A new baseline 0 rating | Small players, a batch emerged in 2025–26 |
| On the student planner side: MyStudyLife, Semora AI, etc. | Web/app | — | — | Personal planning only, doesn't sell to schools; Semora 2026-10 wrote a dedicated comparison page against myHomework |

### III. Growth tactics (how users are acquired)

1. **School procurement → students become daily active users passively** (main channel, confirmed). Evidence: the Avonworth school district board approved the myHomework digital hall pass for high school, with a 2024-25 school-year cost cap of $2,785 (BoardDocs); Canyons district's Hillcrest High, Grass Lake school and Triton High tell students on school sites/handbooks to download myHomework for passes; one school's 2025-26 student handbook says "student homework lives in the MyHomework App." Students have no choice, so once a school signs, daily use follows, and retention isn't a concern.

2. **Comparison/migration landing pages capture search traffic** (confirmed to exist, volume unknown): three 2026-year-old blog posts on the official site, "Why Schools Are Switching from SmartPass and Securly Pass", "SmartPass vs myHomework: Why Schools Are Done Overpaying", "Securly Pass vs myHomework"; they rank in the top 10 for the query "digital hall pass comparison SmartPass Securly" on Jina. They target procurement keywords like "SmartPass alternative" and "Securly Pass replacement." This brings inquiries, not big traffic in the rankings.

3. **Riding SmartPass's acquisition** (confirmed pitch): the blog explicitly says "SmartPass was recently acquired by a large corporation," the homepage table has a dedicated "Independently Owned" row, and the tagline is "Don't get stuck with overpriced, low-service corporate vendors." SmartPass was sold to Raptor in 2024-12 and e-hallpass to Securly in 2022; both leaders are now inside security groups, and it sells "independent, cheaper, and you can reach a real person" (customer quote: "great that we can work with a real human!").

4. **Legacy brand and the free planner's installed base** (inferred): a free student planner that's been around for 15 years, listed on the Clever app library. Teachers and students already know the name, which lowers the barrier to trial.

5. **Category tailwinds** (confirmed): phone bans by state (2026-10-27,44 states + DC have statewide rules as of now, 24 states ban phones all day during class, per lockedinapp.co). Philadelphia opened digital hall passes district-wide, covered by Chalkbeat, NBC and the Inquirer. Demand is expanding, and cheap supply sells best at this point.

6. Not found: X (x-radar 90 days, 0 posts), TikTok (no related content for "myhomework hall pass"), Reddit (no discussion of it). It also didn't match in our ad library (the card's ads are empty; not finding it there doesn't mean it isn't advertising).

### 4. Why it made the list

- **Demand is being pushed by policy** : phone bans and campus safety (fights, vaping) have schools wanting a tool to log students leaving class. The rollout has been fastest since 2025–26; peers all rose ×4 during back-to-school, showing the whole category is expanding.

- **Price anchor** : the leaders' public contracts run $1.90–$3.18/student, and this one publishes "never above $2/student" and labels rivals "$5+". For small schools and budget-tight public districts, a board can approve it with a single few-thousand-dollar order.

- **Bundles what others don't have** : hall pass + homework planner + Flex class time + rewards + parent view, all in one account. SmartPass and Securly have no student planner, and that's the only hard differentiator it can pitch.

- **Timing** : both top players have been bought by big groups, and it's pitching "independent, with real human support," which catches schools unhappy with those acquisitions.

- **Still climbing after September** is what sets it apart from its peers. It means contracts are still being signed or rolled out mid-semester, not just a back-to-school spike.

### 5. Differentiation: is it why it broke out?

Differentiation = **cheap (<$2/student) + independent small company + student planner included in the pass** . What actually drives it is **the price and the "independent" angle** , on top of heavy new demand from phone bans. The planner is more a checkbox on a comparison table than a real edge. The product itself isn't better: McHenry High School (Illinois) **swapped myHomework for Minga** in the 2025-26 school year. The principal said myHomework was "weak on reporting student location," and a teacher said "MyHomework is too cumbersome." Minga only gave passes to its own teachers (McHenry Messenger). So it wins by being cheap in a growing category and picking up the budget-sensitive segment, **not by having a better product** .

### 6. How well known is it

Barely anyone knows about it: no public revenue (private small company instin LLC, Kansas area code 913), no media or big X accounts covering its pivot, no discussion on social platforms. The category itself gets plenty of press (Chalkbeat, EdSurge, Inquirer), but those pieces are about SmartPass, Securly and Infinite Campus.

### VII. Copycats

No one is copying it directly, but the playbook of "low-price alternative to SmartPass/Securly + comparison pages" is already being run: Hallwise ($999/school flat fee, compare page updated 2026-10), plus OrangePasses, HallPass EDU, HallPass+ and others that appeared in 2025–26.

### VIII. What to take from it

- An **old free consumer tool** that could be turned into a B2B product for institutions, reusing the same account system, existing users and brand.

- **After the leaders were bought by private equity/big groups** , run a comparison page pitching "independent, cheap, with real people," and use the blog to write "X vs us" and "why we switched from X."

- A **price below the board-approval threshold** , like "under $2 per student per head," so a single principal can sign off.

- When picking a B2B product, look at "one institution sign-up = a batch of end users forced to use it daily." Rank climbs are a proxy for contract volume.

### 9. What I'm still unsure about

- How many schools signed and how much revenue: no public figures. The "Thousands of happy customers" line is unverified.

- Of the continued October climb, it's impossible to tell how much is new schools versus deeper use in schools already signed (for example, the Flex class-time feature).

- "SmartPass/Securly $5+/student" is its own claim. Public contracts show about $1.90–$3.18, so the gap isn't as big as it says.

- Whether low-price standalone products get squeezed out once SIS platforms like Infinite Campus bundle hall passes.

- The exact date of the website's B2B redesign (not found on Wayback). Inferred to be in 2025–26.
