Bloomz Convenience Pack

Really wish the school district would go back to Remind. I signed up for this app in order to be included in my step-son’s class information. The app doesn’t allow you to sign up just for one kid. It shoves you into ALL the kids classes. I don’t need to be involved in my teenage stepdaughter’s classes but I didn’t get a choice. There’s NOTHING intuitive about this app. It’s a nightmare to navigate. Busy parents don’t have time to spend learning a complicated and poorly designed new app. I just need the basics which Remind does easily but Bloomz does not. I tried to message the teacher and was about to send when it said it was going to go to 84 people. What the heck?! I’m trying to message the teacher only!! I just got a notification on my phone. Besides the fact that it takes AGES to load anything in Bloomz, I see this important alert message was sent 37 minutes prior to my getting the alert. I have a brand new iPhone and I’m on fiber wifi. It shouldn’t take that long to load this app or get an alert. I know it’s not my phone or my service. It’s this app. Super disappointed. No idea why any school district or parent would want to deal with this.
