Kaddy
Approving Kaddy for your students
Students at your school use Kaddy to plan homework and study. When one of them connects Google Classroom with their school account, Google shows “Access blocked: Your institution’s admin needs to review kaddyapp.com”. That’s because Google Workspace for Education blocks apps an admin hasn’t configured yet for users designated as under 18.
What Kaddy reads
Kaddy asks for three read-only Classroom permissions, and only after a student chooses to connect:
- Your Google Classroom classes (classroom.courses.readonly): the names of the classes the student is enrolled in.
- Your course work and grades (classroom.coursework.me.readonly): the student’s own assignments, with titles, descriptions and due dates.
- Your submissions (classroom.student-submissions.me.readonly): whether the student has turned each assignment in, so Kaddy stops reminding them about finished work.
Kaddy never writes to Classroom, never turns anything in, and doesn’t import grades. It can’t see other students, class rosters or teachers’ email addresses. It doesn’t use Classroom data for advertising or to train AI models. If a student uses one of Kaddy’s AI study tools on an imported assignment, that assignment’s text is sent to Anthropic to answer them, the same as anything else they ask. Google verified Kaddy’s app on 17 October 2026. The full details are in our Privacy Policy, under “Google user data”.
How to allow it
You need the Service Settings administrator privilege.
- In the Google Admin console, go to Security > Access and data control > API controls.
- Under App access control, click Manage Third-Party App Access.
- Click Configure new app (or Add app > OAuth App Name or Client ID) and search for this client ID:
651698707158-4thaqfd3ku989cjuf1utglk909dnf5ns.apps.googleusercontent.com - Select Kaddy, then choose the organizational unit your students are in.
- Choose Trusted and finish. Kaddy only asks for the three read-only permissions above, so Trusted doesn’t give it anything more.
Google says changes can take up to 24 hours. Students who were blocked just connect again.
Students can also tap Request access on the blocked screen. Configuring Kaddy as above covers all of them at once.
Before you turn it on
Google asks schools to get parental consent where it’s required before allowing apps for students under 18. Our page for parents explains what Kaddy is and what it collects.
