Good

I recommend adding a Gpa calculator, i hate going to a other site to calculate my gpa. Nice app, not buggy at all. Everyone is complaining about the face id, everyone is trying to find away to hate on a perfect app. By the way why has the site gone down? I know the whole coronavirus thing is going on but you guys need a social page on instagram facebook or twitter.

Not reliable

I’ve been using this app to check my kids grades and assignments. I used it 3 days ago and now it won’t let me log in. It keeps telling me my password or login name are incorrect...they are correct! I’ve deleted the app and re-added with no success. Another faulty app the school requires you to have in order to get their grades. We don’t get paper report cards anymore because of this fabulous app. What a disappointment!

not good

This app is extremely ridiculous. Our school uses this to check our grades and it is so glitchy and dumb. Every time I use it my grades don’t show up until I wait 3 minutes long. It also has a lot of problems with it. I know this might be bias because it’s for school but even my parents agree with me. Also face id doesn’t work half the time on this app but this app only. Schools should think twice before using this app.

Doesn’t Work Anymore

I used to use it all the time for school but now it doesn’t work. I tried uninstall and installing again to see if it worked but it doesn’t. It would open and just freezes on the same screen forever till it crashes. Fix it and I give you a better review.

Won’t let me access it

I have been using this app for a very long time to check my grades and while it has have had its moments, it was overall fine. This entire app though recently won’t let me access it even though I logged in with WiFi on! At first, I thought this was a glitch and would check my grades another day, but every single time I do it had the same error. I am now convinced it is your faulty service and I also have seen many other reviews complaining about the same issue. If your school uses this service, use the website version as it is much better. If the developers do change this problem though, I will edit this post and change my rating.

Confusing

It is a great app, but after about three weeks of having it, it is being a little bit funky. It logged me out saying I had a lot of invalid passcodes, yet I all my information was right, and I didn’t even log in for a couple of days, so it’s impossible. And now it won’t log me back in even when I deleted my account, and the app, and tried everything all over again, but it won’t take anything. It is just too strict and it won’t let me do anything, no matter how hard I try. So now I can’t see my grades and projects, and things due. Over all, it has some things they might need to fix, but it’s a good app.

The interface is horrible

This app is a mess in many ways, with many bugs and delayed grading part of the problem. But personally, my biggest issue is the outdated interface. The buttons are small, lag a lot, and the interface just generally feels like a late 2000s app. It makes looking at grades and upcoming dates painful, and would be great if fixed.

Works ok, but lots of room for improvement

This app works fairly well, does it’s base job of displaying grades. However, the UI seems to be just a simplified version of a website, not an actual native app, which makes it somewhat cumbersome to use. It would be nice if grades less than 48 hrs old were bolded or somehow highlighted to help me identify new grades easily; a notification that new grades have posted would be awesome.

I see no use for the calendar function at all, though that may be because teachers just aren’t using it.

Also, can you please make it possible to hide dropped classes? This is possible in the web-based version, but not in the app.

Doesn’t work anymore.

Last year it worked, but this year every time I try logging in I can’t. For the time leading up to the first day and the first week of school I thought I wasn’t able to access my skyward account. Turns out, it was just the app. Even when it was working, the app was slower than molasses in January, but now it’s just trash. Although considering everything else involved in the public school system, I’m not particularly shocked.

Basically useless.

It doesn’t show you your whole paystub, you can’t actually print the paystub to see it in it’s entirety either, you literally see the three bits of information that is shown on the screen, and True Time is buggy as all get out.
Oh, and 65% of it is disabled if I’m not on my work’s WiFi anyways, so, why do I have this??
I literally downloaded it so I could check my pay and make sure my whole check from my 3 different school district jobs were all happening and that’s LITERALLY the one thing I can’t see.
