Not user friendly or functional
From the teacher end, this app is not very easy to navigate or intuitive. Does not display all student info on their profiles, difficult to navigate anything with payroll/time off on the employee side.
I only ever really use it to add attendance if I forgot and get a reminder email. I always just use the desktop website for anything else in payroll, looking up student info, grades, messaging, past attendance, etc.

Don’t be fooled by reviews!!
App is super good for checking grades and getting messages from teachers, plus parents can have it to check their child(rens) grades!! The only thing that’s annoying is it’ll say you have notifications to check in skyward even if you don’t. Other than that it’s a super useful app for helping kids stay accountable with their grades!!

So many bugs and errors
As a student I want to look at my grade on a normal basis but half of the time doesn’t work and won’t even let me click login or not, it can you please send the same notification over and over again (and late to), it will kick me out of the app constantly. It is very inconvenient. On the phone if try to swipe to most recent semester/quarter it will automatically send you back if you make one wrong click. This app only gives me problems throughout the 6 years I have used it no matter what device I use save yourself a storage and just go on the website :/

Reviews are wrong
Don’t be tricked by all the 1 star reviews because this mobile skyward app is great! My first time trying to login took a couple tries but it is very fast at loading in, I have so far had no glitches, bugs, or anything. The app is great and works well and fast!

Too many issues
I have a child in school, as well as work for the school district. I can not access either account from the app. I can not log in to check my pay or track my work hours nor can I log in to check my kids grades. I’ve deleted the app, redownloaded it and attempted to sign back into my accounts and I can’t even do that because it freezes and crashes. I’ve ensured my phone is up to date and I have checked all my internet settings and nothing works.
A functioning mobile app is a must in todays world. Work on fixing the issues before schools find alternative options.

forced to change password several times without explanation
Very difficult to use. If you need to find a specific piece of information, good luck because this is not user friendly whatsoever. Within a year, I was forced to change my password 3-4 times, and not given an explanation as to why. I've used this since 2012, and I'd had the same password up until the beginning of this school year. The overall format is confusing. Don't even get me started on the buggy notifications.

Logged Out
I hat this app, I hate that my school district uses it. I have never had any terrible problems up until today, when I went to check my grades and it had completely logged me out. I put my password back in and it told me my account was not found. Th app had COMPLETELY deletree my account. But when I got it back I tried the “forgot my password button” hoping that it would somehow get me back in. But then it told me that I had to change my password at least 5 time before it would work. So I did, and it didn’t work. So I went back in to reset my password. But then it just gave up and told me to see the District Administrator… for my login.🤦🏽♂️I guess I won’t know if I am passing my classes until the end of the semester. I do not recommend this app AT ALL!

Super annoying
I might be biased because I hate school but this app is so annoying, I get two notifications for something that should be one. That probably didn’t make sense but it’s like it will send “__ is missing.” And then 2 seconds later it will say “__ is missing.” Like I got it the first time, plus the app in general is just bad, it’s laggy and hard to use. Also I get notifications super often it’ll be like 20 notifications in 5 minutes and one of them is class message received so I’m wondering what message I sent and it just says “error” and never tells me what it is

Horrible!
I hate this app! It’s nice to keep up with my kids’ grades, but the notifications are horrible. When the red bubble pops up (on the icon), there is no way in the app to find what the notification is all about. When a notification pops up on my phone, click on it, it won’t go to whatever initiated the notification. It tells me there is an error. In order to clear out the red bubble, you’ve just gotta go through the whole freaking app in order to find what the notification is all about and to clear out the bubble. It’s the worst app to navigate!

I don’t understand
I don’t understand why people are hating on this app. I mean, it’s a good app. I can see my grades and missing assignments, so I can work on my missing assignments and keep my grades up. If my teacher grades something like a test but we didn’t get it back on paper, all I have to do is check this app. It’s a super practical app to have, highly recommend.
