Good app

W app I use it a lot. ( don’t listen to the hatters like goldengrouse).

School

I have school tomorrow and I clicked the next day to get ready to put my books in my bag and then it glitched and put Thursday schedule into Wednesday schedule. I came to school with the Thursday books on Wednesday. The teacher yelled at me and now I have after school detention all thanks to this app.

Compass

Amazing website, never gets my classes wrong and keeps me up to date on everything. Very easy to sign in and great if you forget anything

I hate school

The way me and this app have a love and hate relationship the way this app brings me joy when I have a CRT is unbelievable and when I have double English is when I don’t like it

This app sucks

Barely works half of the time, useless updates and most of the time I sign into the app and it doesn’t even work and just sends me to the website instead. I hate this thing.

Rubbish app that we’re forced to use

More holes than Swiss cheese

Compass being an agent of chaos to my school attendance.

As a student, I despise how every single time I open the app it logs me out and sends me in a journey throughout my apps to log back in again. Numerous times my teachers have had a last time class change and the only way to know is through the app; as Compass logs me out and sends me to chrome to log in (even though it doesn't log in the app, just web), I then have to waste time in between periods to check for my class, making me arrive late to some classes. I plead with you guys to please fix this.

Frustrated

Just really frustrating when you have been logged out, setting up a new password is impossible.

Feel connected to the school due to this app

Feel connected to the school community due to this app

Please Add an Apple Watch App for Compass

As a student I’d love to see an Apple Watch app for Compass. It would make it much easier for students to quickly check their timetable and see what class they have next without needing to take out their phone.

At my school, teachers often change classrooms, so I need to check Compass frequently throughout the day. However, students aren’t allowed to use their phones during school hours, which makes it difficult to quickly check for room changes or our next class. An Apple Watch app would allow students to discreetly view their timetable and classroom information without needing to use their phone.

Having the timetable, room numbers, and any classroom changes available on Apple Watch would save time, help students get to the correct class faster, and make Compass even more useful during the school day.

I think many students with an Apple Watch would really appreciate this feature. Thank you for considering my suggestion!

Incredibly frustrating and unreliable for school use

Our school requires us to use this app, but it is an absolute nightmare to navigate. The absolute worst part is having to log in manually every single time I open it, which defeats the purpose of having a convenient app on my phone.On top of the terrible user experience, my inbox is constantly flooded with spam emails from the platform. The app itself is incredibly glitchy, slow, and highly annoying to use daily. If the school didn't force us to use it, I would have deleted it a long time ago. It needs a massive update to fix these basic usability bugs.
If i had my way i wouldnt give it a star at all terrible!!😡😡😡

Worst app, so hard to use!

Worst UI, illogical categories, makes absolutely no sense. Have to call the school every time to find where they’ve stored things because they also struggle with the sill category names and lack of logic.

if I Had a Choice, I’d Delete It Immediately

Unfortunately, this is an app I have to use, otherwise, it would have been deleted straight away. The navigation is terrible, finding information is a painful experience, and the overall design feels outdated and clunky. Incredibly, in 2025, an app can still be this poorly designed. At times, it’s actually easier to use the non-mobile-optimised web version on my phone because the app is just that frustrating to navigate. No improvements since launch, no sign of getting better, just an all-around terrible user experience.

Consistency issues across app

Overall ok, however consistently downed or multiple features not working.

One time login code does not work

Had to pay the enrolment fee for my kid and could not login as I forgot the password . The one time code generation did not work through the mobile app . The code generation seems to only work with user name as I had no luck getting the code send when I entered the email or the mobile number .Also had to go through a browser running on windows machine to generate the code after which the code was send to mobile . Hoping my review may help somebody trying to pay the enrolment offer for their kid which is due in 2 days from the time of this message
