Frequently Asked Questions

Do Now Warmups is a classroom engagement platform for middle and high school teachers. It helps you assign structured warm-ups, writing prompts, and exit tickets to your classes, collect student responses, and track participation — all in one place.

Accounts are currently invitation-only. Request an invitation from our pricing page and we will send you access instructions by email once your school is onboarded.

Yes, students create their own accounts using the class join code their teacher provides. They sign up with an email and password.

Do Now Warmups works in any modern browser — Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge — on desktops, laptops, tablets, and phones. No app download is required.

It depends on your plan. The Home plan supports 1 class and up to 5 students. The Elementary School plan supports up to 3 classes with up to 30 students each. The Secondary School plan supports up to 6 classes with up to 40 students each.

The current invitation-only period is effectively a free trial. All features are available while pricing is being finalized.

The Home Plan is for individual educators or homeschool families. Elementary and Secondary School plans are for campuses and include an admin dashboard, multi-teacher support, and school-wide student management.

Yes. We are designed with student privacy as a core requirement. Student data is isolated per school, teachers can only see their own students, and we never sell or share student data with third parties.

All data is stored in a database on servers in the United States. We do not store data in other regions unless a school explicitly requires it.

No. School isolation is enforced at the database level. Teachers can only access classes, students, and submissions within their own school.

The platform supports three prompt types: Do Nows (quick openers), Warmups (brief reflection or review), and Exit Tickets (end-of-class checks for understanding). All three support written responses and can include links or embedded media.

Yes. Teachers can write custom prompts from their dashboard. Custom prompts are private to your school and can be reused across multiple classes and assignments.

Yes. When creating an assignment you can set an "available from" date and a due date. The assignment becomes visible to students at the scheduled time and closes automatically when the due date passes.

First confirm the student is using the correct email address. If the issue persists, contact support@donowwarmups.com with the student's email and we will investigate.
