Create a Table

What is a table

A "table" in Sleepy represents one semester schedule. It contains:

• Name — e.g. "Spring 2026" or "Year 2 Semester 1"
• Start date — the Monday of the first teaching week (YYYY-MM-DD)
• Max week — how many weeks this semester lasts (default 20)
• Class period times — when each period starts and ends
• All courses — the courses belonging to this table

You can have multiple tables and switch between them anytime.

Creating a new table

From the Manage tab, tap New Table. This immediately creates an empty table and opens the edit screen where you configure it.

Configuring the table

Basic info

Class period times

Tap to expand this section. It defines how many periods per day and when each one starts and ends. Two modes are available via the top tab switcher:

Manual mode

Edit each period individually:

• Start time — when this period begins (e.g. "08:00")
• End time — when this period ends (e.g. "08:50")
• Tap + to add more periods, tap the trash icon to remove

A default schedule of 12 periods (08:00-21:35) is pre-filled for new tables.

Auto mode

Configure once and let the app calculate all periods:

• Total periods — how many periods per day (e.g. 12)
• Start time — when the first period begins (e.g. "08:00")
• Period duration — minutes per period (e.g. 45)
• Break duration — minutes between periods (e.g. 5)
• Optionally, configure specific breaks — longer gaps after certain periods (e.g. 15 min break after period 4 for lunch)

The app calculates all start and end times automatically from these settings.

Saving

Tap the checkmark icon in the top bar to save. If this is a newly created table, it becomes your active table. If you go back without saving, the temporary table is discarded.

Deleting a table

At the bottom of the edit screen, tap Delete Table. Confirm the deletion. This removes the table and all its courses permanently.
