What is Forge Learning Academy?
Forge Learning Academy is a complete K-12 homeschool learning platform. It combines a full curriculum aligned to your state, a patient tutor that guides your student through any subject, world languages, real-world and trade skills, financial literacy, and character development. Every subject is available in a Faith-Forward or Standard Academic track so you can choose what fits your family.
How do I get started?
Download the app, tap Begin Your Journey, and create a parent account. You will choose your state, set up each student with their grade and mode, and give each student a simple PIN. From your parent dashboard you can manage every student, review activity, and track progress.
How do subscriptions and billing work?
Subscriptions are handled through your Apple account using standard in-app purchases. You can view plans in the app before subscribing. To manage, change, or cancel your subscription, open the Settings app on your device, tap your name, tap Subscriptions, and select Forge Learning Academy. You can also reach subscription management from inside the app under Settings and Account.
How do I add more students?
Each plan includes a set number of student seats. To add a student, open your parent dashboard and tap Add a Student. If you have reached your plan limit, you can add extra seats or upgrade your plan from the same screen.
Is my child's activity private and safe?
Yes. Student conversations with the tutor are visible to the parent from the parent dashboard, so you always know what your student is asking and learning. We take child safety seriously and design the experience to be age-appropriate.
How does state alignment work?
When you set your state, Forge aligns lessons to that state's standards and surfaces the courses your state requires for graduation or grade promotion. If you move, you can update your state and everything adjusts automatically. Forge also includes a state compliance helper and a general homeschool law summary. This is provided as helpful guidance and is not legal advice; always verify current requirements with your state's Department of Education.
What is the difference between Faith-Forward and Standard Academic?
Standard Academic is a fully secular curriculum. Faith-Forward covers the same academic material with a biblical worldview woven throughout. You can choose a different mode for each student in your family, and switch at any time.
I forgot my PIN or password. What do I do?
Parent account passwords can be reset from the login screen. Student PINs can be changed by the parent from the parent dashboard under each student's card. If you are still having trouble, email us at
[email protected] and we will help.
How do I delete my account?
You can permanently delete your account from inside the app under Settings and Account, in the Danger Zone section. This erases your account and student profiles. Note that deleting your account does not cancel Apple billing; manage your subscription through your device Settings as described above.
Which devices are supported?
Forge Learning Academy is available on iPhone and iPad. Additional platforms are planned for future updates.
