### 2/5 — Only gave it 2 stars because they are more difficult to remove (If I could I would give 0).

*2026-05-19, version 3.8.9*

One of the worst formatted 
platforms for student ever!!!!

### 1/5 — i hate school hate the app

*2025-01-30, version 3.8.9*

title says it all

### 1/5 — Awful App

*2024-12-10, version 3.8.9*

This app is awful to navigate, you fill out a form, complete it,  submit it, and it doesn’t update as submitted. Did the school district get it? No idea. Zero confirmations that anyone has received it. Especially frustrating when there are time limits and windows, but you can’t tell if the App is even working.

### 1/5 — focus is terrible

*2024-12-05, version 3.8.9*

Have of the time focus does not come up when you click it and it is slow to put in the grades your teacher has all ready put in. my son has came up to me with these problems and they say they will fix it but they never do. Those are only some of the problems with focus.

### 1/5 — Worst App ever

*2024-11-03*

I can’t believe our school system uses this unreliable app. The teachers always say ‘check focus’ like it’s an east thing to do. It constantly crashes. I have to delete and reinstall at least 5 out of 7 days a week. Do better Brevard Public Schools!!

### 1/5 — They should have kept Pinnacle

*2024-10-23, version 3.8.9*

You log in once you create the account fine but once you (Try) to log back in to check something it says permission denied and call that number to speak with someone is NO HELP I SAT ON THE PHONE FOR 45 minutes for no reason. DO BETTER !

### 1/5 — Awful

*2024-10-01, version 3.8.9*

Literally the worst app ever made. I have to delete and redownload it every time I want to use it because it won’t work.

### 1/5 — wrong school district

*2024-09-12, version 3.8.9*

wont let me log in on app

### 1/5 — Bro what?

*2024-09-06, version 3.8.9*

Can’t even log in when the credentials are correct

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2024-08-12, version 3.8.9*

this app puts a random school I can’t even pick💀 
bring back virtual counselor 🙏 LLVC🕊️

### 1/5 — These mates must be bloody delusional

*2024-08-07, version 3.8.9*

Certainly! Here's a negative review for a school app written in a British accent:

---

**Title: Utterly Disappointing and Unreliable**

This school app is an absolute travesty. One would expect a modicum of competence in its design and functionality, but alas, it falls woefully short on every front. The interface is clunky and unintuitive, making it a veritable chore to navigate. Important notifications are either delayed or never arrive at all, leaving parents and students in the lurch. 

The timetable feature is a nightmare, constantly crashing and often displaying incorrect information. Homework submissions are a hit-or-miss affair, with assignments frequently disappearing into the digital ether. Moreover, the app's performance is sluggish at best, with interminable loading times that test one's patience to the limit.

Customer support is virtually non-existent, with queries and complaints going unanswered for days, if not weeks. It beggars belief that an app intended for educational purposes could be so woefully inadequate. Avoid this shambles of an app at all costs; your sanity will thank you for it.

### 1/5 — 😭

*2024-08-01, version 3.8.9*

Pinnacle is superior and has colors.

### 1/5 — The worst

*2024-05-16, version 3.8.6*

This app didn’t even let me in when I got it and when it finally did I tried to log in but it didn’t let me the worst app to get just check your grades at school

### 1/5 — Can’t Log in

*2024-03-30, version 3.8.6*

I like being able to go in at a moments notice to see my child’s grades and missing work but I don’t like that reports cards aren’t print and I HAVENT BEEN ABLE TO LOG IN for 2 weeks AND CANT RESET MY PASSWORD because when I do, IT DOESNT SEND AN EMAIL TO RESET!!

### 1/5 — Keeps signing out

*2024-01-30, version 3.8.6*

can you make it so it doesn't sign you out every day?

### 3/5 — It’s alright

*2023-12-29, version 3.8.6*

So I use this to look at my grades and half the time I can see it but sometimes it randomly signs me out or when I open the app it’s just a white screen and it just doesn’t work. It is a good concept bc we don’t have to keep track of paper report cards and stuff but at least make it turn on like it’s the most simple function? It’s won’t load half the time or even open to the screen at all, when I open it it shows the logo in a white screen then the white screen turns blank it’s so weird.

### 1/5 — Most of the time it won’t even open properly

*2023-12-11, version 3.8.6*

We are forced to use this app by our school system, but this is one of the least functional electronic systems I have used. It is the opposite of intuitive, won’t even open properly more than half the time, and the various tabs and pages available don’t even always make sense. If you are an educator looking for an electronic school system apply PLEASE do not force this on your community.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-05-01, version 3.8.9*

This app is awful. Works half the time..

### 1/5 — Dosent even let me sing in

*2026-05-01, version 3.8.9*

lol

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-04-24, version 3.8.9*

This app blows

### 1/5 — This app gives you anxiety and depression

*2026-04-23, version 3.8.9*

I wish the time I open this app I took a prayer and throw it up I am forced to use it look at the letters and the numbers just gives me a feeling of depression when I have bad grades……

### 1/5 — The app doesn't even work

*2026-04-06, version 3.8.9*

I have to go through google or safari if i want to look at my grades which can come to be quite inconvenient. I would love to use the app except i am fully unable to log in for absolutely no reason. It will not accept my pinellas school district.

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2025-08-07, version 3.8.9*

This app is totally unusable. I am for the county get a new app because this is an absolute nightmare for parents to use.

### 1/5 — Unable to use.

*2025-08-04, version 3.8.9*

My school decided to change it app for the county I’m in and it won’t work. I’m trying to log into MY county and it’s not working for me at all, saying I’m not a student for the one it’s set to on this app when I’m PUTTING IN MY ALREADY MADE ACCOUNT IN THERE. IT STILL WON’T ACCEPT IT. I have school in 7 days and this app is already making me upset since I can’t get my schedule.

### 1/5 — Unusable app

*2025-02-22, version 3.8.9*

This is app is completely unusable. We are forced to use this app by the county and it’s definitely one of the worst apps I’ve ever had to use. 70% of the time the app doesn’t even load, the calculation of my grade is usually wrong, and don’t even get me started on how long it takes grades to upload. My teacher could fill in grades and it would take 10 hours to upload in. The county relies on this app for everything and it comes up short every time. They’ve gotta do something about this app

### 1/5 — Worst App ever

*2025-02-20*

I can’t believe our school system uses this unreliable app. The teachers always say ‘check focus’ like it’s an east thing to do. It constantly crashes. I have to delete and reinstall at least 5 out of 7 days a week. Do better Brevard Public Schools! But what do I expect!

### 1/5 — Barely works

*2025-02-10, version 3.8.9*

Sometimes when I log on it works just fine, but recently it just loads and loads and doesn’t get anywhere. I need to be able to check my grades so this is not helpful.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-09-20, version 3.8.9*

The app really helps me in a day to day life because I can easily check my grades at home or at school✨⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

### 5/5 — This app is great!

*2024-02-13*

This app is amazing it’s up to date and its reliable. Without I would not know what my grades this app helps me up my grades a lot I can see what’s missing and it can tell me how I did on an assignment if you attend bps this app could help you if your a student or if your a parent it will show what your grades are.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-12-17, version 3.8.6*

This app is very helpful with my grades. It’s live and you can see what you hit on a assignment. This app is very useful I recommend

### 5/5 — This app is great!

*2023-11-15*

This app is amazing it’s up to date and its reliable. Without I would not know what my grades this app helps me up my grades a lot I can see what’s missing and it can tell me how I did on an assignment if you attend bps this app could help you if your a student or if your a parent it will show what your grades are.

### 5/5 — This app is dumb and stupid

*2023-09-21, version 3.7.1*

I have bad grades because this app hacked my computer

### 5/5 — ?

*2023-05-23, version 3.7.1*

There are so many students on here eating the app one star, and, although there are a few actual reasons, most of there are either 1. They don’t like their grades, 2. They hate school and 3. Utter nonsense. The app is actually really useful.

### 5/5 — Tracking my child’s grade

*2022-10-15*

My child lied that he got 70% in Science. When I check this app, he got 62%. Thank you for creating this app so I can track my child’s grade

### 5/5 — Great! Easy to use!

*2018-11-09, version 1.01*

This app is great, easy to use and is faster than using ClassLink! It is easier to navigate than the normal website! And it fits the screen perfectly!
If added finger print or face recognition to login on iPhones it will make it even faster and easier!

### 4/5 — The app is perfectly fine

*2023-01-25, version 3.7.1*

As a student who uses The app daily, it works perfectly fine. I’d say the  only qualm I have with it is that files open in a browser window not in the app.

### 4/5 — poop

*2022-01-04, version 3.7.1*

poop is yummy
