Stupid app
Stupid hard to navigate stupid school app
Really isn’t that bad at all!
As a student I use Schoology ALL the time. Sure, it’s not the BEST. But I simply disagree with all the one star ratings. It is so helpful, I will tell you how, If a student is ever falling behind they can just check into Schoology and they can see what they might need to ask for help with and what not. It also helps with getting things turned so they aren’t overdue and then you get a zero. But I do see why people may disagree but, I have reasons why it’s not that bad as people are saying it is. Heres why: First, you may not be able to do a lot on an iPhone because it isn’t really programmed for iPhones to do like assignments and stuff so that could be part of the glitches and stuff. Second, you may not get any like assignments if your school doesn’t use it, so don’t even bother trying to get this app. Third, it is AWESOME because I don’t get notifications on my school laptop, so I can just turn on my notifications for my phone and I will get everything I need to know such as: sports, assignments, and even announcements from the head school boarder! Well I hope after reading this I changed your perspective just a little bit!

New update broke the app
I mainly use Schoology on mobile since my iPad is lighter than my school computer and I can’t carry too much weight on my back and it was working great for the two years I’ve used it until the newest update. The Google drive resource app is completely busted on mobile and wouldn’t let me submit any other file since it “couldn’t read the file” but worked fine on the computer (even tho I triple checked that my Google account was synced on mobile). The Google assignments feature also got destroyed in the update, pulling up a broken web version of Schoology that says “access denied” even though once again, I am fully signed into my Google account. I am essentially forced to use my bulky and heavy school computer because they made the app unusable. Schoology, fix this. You have so many students that rely on this app to do their schoolwork and this new “bug fixing” update is preventing them from doing that. The only reason I gave it two stars instead of one is because there are already so many troll accounts trying to get the app deleted from the App Store just cuz they don’t want to do their work but I genuinely need this app to change.

Not great, doesn’t log in and is glitchy
The app is great but is extremely glitchy and when I try to log in through computer it says login error or something else and takes me awhile to log in...
Its horrible
Schoology seems like a great app to use for school & everything going on this year especially with COVID-19, but is it really? All the students are having a hard time trying to figure out everything with it. The due dates are too small, you can't delete submissions you didn't mean to send, very unorganized, and doesn't say the assignment are done even after you submit your response. This is a terrible way to have many students focus on school. The courses you are in show up alphabetically and not in order, which can be very stressful and hard on students who like to be organized or have OCD and need to have it a specific way. The notifications are on the home screen of the app, instead they should have each class, like google classroom, with the due date and time, so you can click the assignment and it's easy.
The folders in the course class are also very hard to understand. Instead of all the assignments popping up you should just be able to click a certain folder and open it and get what you need. Also, when submitting a Google Document or a Word assignment, the assignment gets all messed up when submitted, which can ruin your students grade. This school year, needs to be organized & easy, for all our online, in school, & hybrid students. This is not an organized app for any school to use. Too messy for anyone. Even the teachers are confused on everything. Terrible app. Not recommended.

George
I was using this app because my school forces me too, I went to the bathroom and the intercom announced that "he's back" and I was scared and I started to shake because I knew who "he" was, "he" is George Floyd. I heard screaming within a moments notice and then complete silence like George wiped out an entire classroom all on his own. The sounds were becoming louder and louder, drawing closer every second until... I heard a foot enter the restroom and a voice saying "momma... I can't breathe" at this point I was fearing for my life and I was violently shaking. I put my legs up so hopefully he wouldn't see me, but I was too late George Floyd found me and started banging on the bathroom door screaming "Momma!!" | started praying for my safety and all of a sudden Derek Chauvin came into the bathroom and wrestled George Floyd and after a long struggle finally got his knee on George's neck, George started screaming hysterically saying "momma. J I can't breathe, momma" and finally after a minute or so, George was defeated. I was finaly able to go back to class with a traumatic event.
Stay safe out there guys.

Terribly unorganized
I know that a lot of kids have rated apps like these with bad reviews and 1 star because they don’t like school, but trust me I’m being serious schoology is so much worse then google classroom. If you are a school district reading this and considering getting this, DONT it is such a hassle. There are so many reasons not to get schoology so I’m only going to list a few of them. First of all, you cannot unsubmit anything. Once you submit it’s in there for good and you can’t change it. You can submit another attachment but that’s still confusing for the teachers when they are grading. Anyways it’s super annoying. Next, school districts have to pay for this while they can just use google classroom instead. It’s not worth the money. Do not make the same mistake my school district did: sign a THREE YEAR contract with schoology. Not to mention all of the teachers hate it as well. Lastly, it has SO. MANY. BUGS. it can barely load. And if your school has a lot of kids in it like mine does (3000 to be exact) then it will take forever to load because so many of us are on it all at the same time. I hope you take my advise and not get schoology. I definitely recommend google classroom instead and sorry this was so long. Thank you for reading what I have to say about schoology if you made it this far. 😁✌️
