Reviews of SchoolPing

Missing basic features

Whilst School Ping functions why does the app not have essential features to make it really useful and functional - SEARCH is essential as scrolling through hundreds of messages to find a specific message is tedious - FILTER to show unread messages would be a great addition - PINNING important messages for action also very useful - ADD TO CALENDAR when a message relates to a date or deadline would be great.
Hopefully some of these basic functions can be added soon please
Many Thanks

Updates don’t come quick enough

I have recently upgraded to the iPhone 16 Pro. Despite notifications being turned on, they don’t come through which results in missed messages. I can no longer access the X or the Submit buttons which means I can’t respond to forms or book parents evening slots through the app. I have emailed the developer asking when the app will be updated but haven’t had a response. It’s a shame as it was previously a very helpful app.

Poor, Poor, Poor….AVOID IF POSSIBLE

This app infuriates me. It either crashes as it doesn’t update in line with Apple updates or reverts to showing you unread messages…when you have already read them!

Today, the app is saying I have multiple unread messages however, when I check the messages and the desktop version, there are no unread messages! I even deleted and reinstalled and instead of making it correct, it actually increased the amount of unread messages!

I really wish our school would use a different platform.
