### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2022-10-20, version 5.6.15000*

Suddenly logs me out and wont let me log in spamming a “not logged in” message

### 1/5 — Worst app ever! No help for parents

*2022-08-14, version 5.6.15000*

Another major fail from BCPS… do not waste the space on your phone with this app. It does NOTHING.
Need to save dates of important school events?Not with this app!
Need to update account info like phone number?
Not with this app!
Need to get to virtual counselor or other tools for parents?
Not with this app!
I could go on and on…. BCPS continues to disappoint. My kid can’t graduate fast enough so I can be done with this useless district.

### 1/5 — App isn’t working correctly

*2022-07-18, version 5.6.14000*

There seems to be something wrong with the app. I used to be able to access MANY different “things” but can’t access anything now. I deleted it and reinstalled but still not working.

### 2/5 — Not mobile friendly

*2022-02-02, version 5.6.14000*

The UI is terrible

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2022-01-27, version 5.6.14000*

This app doesn’t work at all. Can you pleas fix it.

### 1/5 — Poorly made

*2021-10-01, version 5.6.14000*

Grades are always slow to load and the app is extremely clunky...

### 1/5 — Aweful app

*2021-09-20, version 5.6.14000*

Unable to sign in. Very difficult to find information

### 2/5 — Logging me out, repeatedly. 🤬

*2021-09-01, version 5.6.14000*

Last school year, the app was working great. However, this year it keeps logging me out. When I go to log back in, it tells me my password is incorrect or invalid. So then I request a new password and I get an email with a 5 digit temp password. I log in using temp password and I’m logged in again for a few days then it logs me out again. Then I repeat the whole cycle over again. This is ridiculous. Please fix ASAP.

### 2/5 — Not so helpful

*2021-08-26, version 5.6.14000*

This app is hard to navigate, there is no tech support for this app to even help. It logged me out and now I can’t even log in. I have done everything the instructions said and still won’t allow me.  To top it off can’t find any support as I stated above to help.

### 2/5 — Log in issue

*2021-08-21, version 5.6.14000*

The app would log me out at times and then does not accept my log in. When I reset the password, it’s still not accepting the temporary password that I was sent.

### 1/5 — App does not work

*2021-08-20, version 5.6.14000*

Cannot get app to load fully.  Only topics at the top shuffle, bottom is blank and cannot be navigated?

### 1/5 — Stinks

*2021-08-08, version 5.6.7000*

Any app that cannot retain user id’s or passwords is useless. It signs me out and won’t let me sign back in. I’ve had to reset it several times by calling the school. I needed to go in and check something now but unfortunately we’re in the summertime and I can do nothing. So the most I will give it is one star. Hopefully they’ll hire some new IT people and get this working properly. 

Addendum: you would think that after all these years they would’ve fixed this app. No. It’s just as worthless as ever. It never recognizes the password if it’s signed you out. Then when you try to reset a password it doesn’t let you. This is so typical of government apps and anything done by the government. They hire the cheapest IT people who turn out to be morons.

### 1/5 — Opens your child to Twitter and Facebook

*2020-11-25, version 5.6.7000*

I restrict social media with our child but this app allows my child to search and view content like watch YouTube videos from their Twitter option on the app.  Not to mention go FB and Twitter.   Terrible and careless.  I understand that they wish to allow access to BCPS Twitter and FB page but your child is one click away from everything else.  This cannot be blocked via screen time settings. Absolutely horrible app.

### 1/5 — Confusa

*2025-05-22, version 5.6.26000*

Que aplicación tan confusa no he podido agregar a mi hija por que a toda hora que esta mal el numero de estudiante igual la atención por teléfono es la peor y ir alla es peor por que ellas siempre tienen la razón

### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-01-11, version 5.6.26000*

Not a very user friendly app at all. It’s not easy to log back in once you are logged out. How are parents supposed to keep up with their kids progress in school if the app isn’t working properly.

### 1/5 — Worse App for School District

*2023-08-29, version 5.6.20002*

Can’t log in, can’t click on anything in main page

### 1/5 — Unable to use app

Unable to login so app is basically useless

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2023-08-23, version 5.6.20002*

I have no idea what happened between last year and this one, but the app no longer shows any modules. It loads with a slideshow at the top and then nothing but white space. There is no way to navigate left or right…it’s completely useless. Please fix it!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-08-22, version 5.6.20002*

I don’t know about other parents but I downloaded a couple of days ago and just show some news, doesn’t let me log in or anything else

### 1/5 — App is non-functional

*2023-08-21, version 5.6.20002*

For the last several weeks, the app has been non-functional. The menu items are no longer there and I can do absolutely nothing with the app. Tried deleting and reinstalling, but nothing changes. Using latest app version and am up to date on iOS. Tried contacting the school IT support and they said they don’t support the app. :-/

### 1/5 — Blank screen

*2023-08-17, version 5.6.20002*

Have tried to download numerous times. App and phone is all up to date. I can see the changing headers. Asks me to choose a school but after that the screen is blank. Family member downloaded the same day. No issues. Tried everything to restart/update. No go. Can’t even attempt to log In.

### 1/5 — stops working

*2023-01-24, version 5.6.15000*

stops working after about 2 weeks

### 1/5 — SO GLITCHY

This is beast app

### 5/5 — Oh it’s a school

*2020-07-29, version 5.6.4000*

Oh it’s a school

### 5/5 — BCPS

*2020-01-10, version 5.2.100*

This is an beneficial app, you can use this app to check your grades, and parents you will get to see how your children are doing in he/she classes. This app is amazing, it really helps.

### 4/5 — Review about BCPS

*2022-11-08, version 5.6.15000*

It’s a amazing app to get and informs you the information on time I’m really happy I downloaded this app, if I didn’t download this, I probably wouldn’t know if there’s school the next day if a hurricane is coming. But a 4 star because it logs my out every month or every 2 weeks i don’t know why but over all it’s an amazing app 10/10 recommended❤️👍

### 4/5 — School menus

*2021-08-19, version 5.6.14000*

Can’t find my kids highschool on the menus icon
Click Miramar highschool it turns into Miramar suspension and shows nothing

### 4/5 — Inaccurate info

*2018-02-22, version 5.2.100*

The information displayed is inaccurate. My son’s lunch balance appears to be $8. However it is actual $1.  Not a simple rounding error, but wrong. 
Grades are not up to date. Some info is provided for one son and then not for the other, in a different school 
I don’t know what info is available and accurate. I can’t dependent on it.

### 3/5 — My review

*2023-10-03, version 5.6.26000*

It’s great it just always logs me out

### 3/5 — Has a lot of info but user interface could be more friendly

*2021-07-12, version 5.6.7000*

Not the most user friendly and not the most up to date on summer school calendar days. Thought there was school one Friday come to find out nobody is at the school, very embarrassing and unfortunate but technology isn’t perfect of course. It would help to make it more user friendly because even in my 20’s and tech savvy but this app needs some tweaking.

### 2/5 — No multiple kid friendly

*2023-08-18, version 5.6.20002*

If you have more then one child it’s not worth having I set it up with all the children but it only had the one child logged in this app is a waste of time.

### 2/5 — Poor technical planning

*2022-08-31, version 5.6.15000*

Third party apps associated with this is horrible. You would think the developers would have had meetings with the other developers to make sure their items would Integrate better.
