### 5/5 — Pretty fire

*2026-03-27, version 1.11.2*

Helps me know what’s going on for track

### 1/5 — App is bad

*2026-01-08, version 1.10.1*

The way the platform is setup is bad. No group chats, notifications often miss. UX is bad.

### 4/5 — Helpful

*2025-11-20*

It is a helpful place for the school to get its announcements out. I just WISH they would put a small red circle over the group’s thumbnail when the group posts something new. Then the circle would disappear once you have read the new messages. Like iPhones do with texts and emails. I am in 10+ groups between all of my kids, and Binderly does tell me there is a new post somewhere. It just doesn’t tell me where! So I check all 10 groups! I have just learned about the inbox tab which is helpful. But the red circles would be much more intuitive and simple.

### 1/5 — No help

*2025-05-16, version 1.8.4*

I submitted a help request months ago. Now school is ending in to the point of spending time saying talk to your child’s teacher of using another way for updates. The app just will not open 98% of the times I tried.

It’s now 5/16/25, 16:35, still no word. My app still does not open 99% of the time.

### 2/5 — Hey developers!!

*2024-10-31, version 1.8.0*

Fix the start up. 🤨

It’s having a hard time loading about 70% of the time. 🤮

### 1/5 — Just bad.

*2024-10-03, version 1.7.3*

I don’t know why our school switched to this. Binderly is just bad all around, lacks features and UI is terrible. Notifications don’t work.

### 1/5 — Issues

*2024-08-20, version 1.6.18*

-Not able to log in on app 
-Not able to have a link emailed about lost password
I can log in from the website but app won’t log me in, I’m putting all the correct info in too. 
So frustrating!!

### 1/5 — Not letting me log in

*2024-08-20, version 1.6.18*

It’s not letting me log into my account

### 1/5 — Great Idea, but something is wrong

*2024-08-19*

Feeling frustrated that this is the only app that I have access to for certain communications with school related activities and more than half the time I can’t even log in.  It kicks me out but I cannot log back in and miss out on real time questions / coordination because it constantly tells me “something went wrong”.  Is this being looked at by anyone, or is an update coming upcoming that will address these issues?  Reading through comments it appears this is a wide spread problem.

### 1/5 — Keeps Freezing/Crashing/Making me reinstall!!

*2024-08-16*

Multiple times a day, the app freezes or doesn’t recognize my account or location. I have to completely delete the app, reinstall it, and login again. What is going on?! Very frustrating.
