### 1/5 — 我踏马谢谢你

*2021-06-06, version 1.0.11.1*

这阴间软件让我在家也能感受到学校的《关爱》。不说别的，就这恶心的U设计让人觉得设计师是体育老师😅。这网站极其不稳定，隔三差五就崩溃。远程教育的时候一星期至少崩三次。真不愧是土澳服务器，名不虚传，育碧都要向你学习。这阴间🍋服务器就有大病，IT还说重启9⃣️❤️？总而言之，这东西像一半成品还被放进粪坑里泡了三天三夜。这ITtm上班摸鱼下班领钱，吃喝嫖赌样样精通。学校居然还有脸给他们开出高薪？多少沾点吧！评分给五星（分期付款）。设计软件的人好自为之，不会做就别做。mdzz。

### 1/5 — Hopeless app

*2020-08-28, version 1.0.33*

This app is so frustrating! I constantly have to delete and reinstall it to be able to log in, not a very efficient way to receive comms!

### 1/5 — Caulfieldlife more like CaulfieldDEAD

*2020-06-03, version 1.0.33*

I came to use this app after the web version continuously failed, however caulfieldlife the app has the same problem. This app is offline half the time

### 1/5 — Doesn’t load!

*2020-06-01, version 1.0.33*

Login takes forever! Use this APP for checking school notifications and timetable, but can’t login, the death of wheel spinning all day! 
CGS, one of the most expensive schools, Can You Please Fix It!!!

### 1/5 — Won’t log in unless I redownload every time

*2020-05-20, version 1.0.33*

Doesn’t log me in just has a spinning wheel of death. Need to go to my computer to check each class, very frustrating

### 1/5 — Canteen downgrade

*2020-02-13, version 1.0.33*

I can’t order lunch for my daughter anymore, as in ordering from the daily specials. Instead it is the same 5 or so meals which get boring fast.

### 1/5 — Please update to be user friendly

*2020-01-23, version 1.0.33*

The interface on this app is too intricate to navigate easily. The information is difficult to find, the app does not always work consistently . When the app sends you information updates when you click notification it does not take you to view the information you are receiving which is pointless. Every time you go to the app you have to re- log in. Please update to be user friendly .

### 1/5 — The app got worse

*2019-12-22, version 1.0.33*

It use to be able to login automatically but after the update, it requires you to tap login and wait quite a long time.

### 1/5 — Jeff92928192

*2019-11-10, version 1.0.29*

HI

### 1/5 — It barely works, and when it does it’s not very good

*2019-08-06, version 1.0.15*

The app functions around 30-40% of the time, and when it does it is barely any help. The only reason I have this app is because there is no other way for me to know what my timetable looks like.

CGS has the budget. I’ve seen sentral, that works perfectly. Get it together.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2019-08-06, version 1.0.15*

App doesn’t work and doesn’t load anything it was advertised to do.

### 1/5 — Nothing works

*2019-08-06, version 1.0.15*

Everything says coming soon pretty useless

### 1/5 — Can not login

*2019-07-31, version 1.0.15*

Why the login point to Microsoft. Cannot login at all.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Genuinely terrible app

*2026-06-14, version 1.2.6*

This app does not provide that hopes that I was looking for, the information is very vague and misleading, and half of the times the app says for me to check IT support because the app can’t load, the dates are also wrong and sometimes appear like I have no school on that day.

Considering that this app is technically a safari page, I can’t access this app with time limit enabled which makes this very annoying. They also give notifications of unimportant messages that I don’t care about.

Please use an alternative 🙏

### 1/5 — So Inconvenient, terrible formatting

*2025-12-24, version 1.2.6*

Having been to multiple schools and comparing their apps, CaulfieldLife is by far one of the most inconvenient and time consuming school apps to use. It is difficult to navigate and find the course material, and overall an annoyance to learning.
PLEASE FIX.

### 1/5 — A Clear Sign of Mismanagement

*2025-11-24, version 1.2.6*

This app delivers a consistently poor user experience, and the ongoing issues suggest serious gaps in product oversight and leadership priorities.

### 1/5 — Worst app design

*2024-11-29, version 1.2.4*

As the private school’s main communication channel, this app needs a total overhaul. Find another app developer.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with a corporate email address

*2023-01-26, version 1.1.3*

Reset password via my corporate email address.  Authentication takes me through to my company O365 login so can’t authenticate to the app.

Expect better

### 1/5 — Worst App ever used

*2022-11-12, version 1.1.3*

You can hardly find anything & are frequently being directed outside the app. One star is already too good.

### 1/5 — Unable to open app for 3 days

*2022-08-12*

Most frustrating app for parents to use, the design is not user friendly but most importantly I’ve come across opening the app most annoying.

It’s been 3 days now and no matter how much I’ve refreshed the app it won’t load pass 88%. Staff are unable to help so I’ll have to delete it now and loose the data.

### 1/5 — Bad app for a private school

*2022-02-08, version 1.1.3*

App doesn’t work and have to reinstall every time because I can’t log in. Could do better

### 1/5 — Bad App

*2022-01-31, version 1.1.3*

It’s shocking

### 1/5 — Annoying to use and barely works

*2021-12-05, version 1.1.3*

This app is poorly made and overall frustrating. I’ve been late to a bunch of my classes because the silly thing wouldn’t load, and it gets incredibly annoying when I’m in a rush. The amount of times it crashed in RL too is just shocking. I only use it to see my timetable and somehow it can barely do that.

## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2025-06-18, version 1.2.6*

Very easy

### 5/5 — :)

*2021-04-09, version 1.1.2*

This app makes my class smaller, would recommend :)

### 5/5 — G cuz

*2020-11-09, version 1.0.33*

Its G cuz

### 4/5 — Age requirement

*2026-08-02, version 1.3.0*

Why did the age requirement go up to 13+? My child is under 13 but still needs to check the app for class, her phone is 13 under, and it won’t let me accept the request, please change it back to 4+

### 2/5 — Unreliable

*2020-07-27, version 1.0.33*

The application rarely loads. User interface is too intricate to navigate effectively. The timetable feature is good when it works, however there is no option to see a weekly overview.

### 2/5 — Not a good user experience

*2020-05-29, version 1.0.33*

When clicking on a notification the app does not open.  I expect this basic but high priority function to work seamlessly.
The sign in experience takes way too long and as a result I often close the app without reading the content which the schools seems important.

### 2/5 — Pretty but pointless

*2019-07-24, version 1.0.15*

With 3 kids at the school I was hoping the app would give more information than it does. When will we get important information regarding when SAC’s and assessments are?  There are plenty of public schools that give parents this information and access to “live” assessment results.
