### 2/5 — App stopped working after iOS 16 upgrade.

*2022-09-18, version 2.4.9*

This app stopped working after iOS 16 upgrade.

### 1/5 — Fees fees fees

*2020-07-02, version 2.4.8*

Don’t use this app! Just go to your school cafeteria and pay.

### 1/5 — The app charges more than most ATMs

*2020-02-28, version 2.4.8*

In my opinion, public schools should not use a service that takes money from families (currently $3 per use to add funds to my child’s account). I like the convenience of the service but feel the service should either be free or be subsidized by the County or school district. I’m going to just add funds using cash from now on. I’m wondering how many hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars are earned by the app every month.

### 1/5 — $2 service fee each time you use it. Ridiculous.

*2020-02-26, version 2.4.8*

You’ve got to be kidding. Then you can’t just pay a specific amount. This is more expensive than PayPal. No way!

### 1/5 — Force Closes

*2019-11-20, version 2.4.7*

App will not allow me to sign up.  Tried 3 times, force close every time.  Get your programming in order.    Also, my school’s office informed me of a charge to load? Each time?  No.  No.

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2019-10-30, version 2.4.7*

Downloaded 3 times and during signup at least 15 times the app world crash and disappear. I’ll just write a check like the old days. Why a school district would associate with such an app is beyond me. Wow.

### 2/5 — Issues

*2019-10-11, version 2.4*

The app is ok and simple to use but it has so many glitches and when you click history tab the entire app crashes. They definitely need a big update.

### 3/5 — Bizarre sample pic

*2019-08-31, version 2.4*

App works fine. Super easy. High processing fee. 
My big red flag is the sample pic. Kids with thousands of dollars in their account. ??? Is that common? And then the only kid with no picture and a negative balance is likely a person of color? Ouch.

### 1/5 — Not good if you move

*2019-08-23*

I had an account set up for a school then we moved. I reset the school district in the app however it didn’t change where my money went. Now I’m waiting on a refund from the school to pay the correct district. Was told to delete my account and make a new one but the app says I can’t use the same email account! So apparently I can never use this app again unless I open a different email account for it. The 1800 number said they wouldn’t talk to me because I wasn’t the corporation who subscribes to it. So no help at all.

### 3/5 — User Test  1000

*2019-08-16, version 2.4*

I agree the convenience fee is high!

### 1/5 — Ridiculous

*2019-08-16, version 2.4*

$3 convenience fee every time to load money into kids lunch account!!! 
The wait time on each step is also ridiculous it takes forever to get to next step and when you are frustrated that’s when they show a $3 convenience fee

### 1/5 — Crash!!!

*2019-06-07, version 2.3.10*

I used to be able to check the history to make sure he wasn’t just getting cookies for lunch- now each and EVERY time I try to open the history tab it crashes- it needs fixed or I’m removing my info altogether and just sending him with cash. If you can’t be trusted to fix this by now then I can’t trust you with my credit info!

6/7/19
Still an issue a year later- just told to go in a different way 🙄 (which only sometimes works)
At $3 fee every time I put money on, you could at least fix it...

### 1/5 — Easy to be robbef

*2019-02-28*

Depositing money in this app which has no pin or two factor authentication is like throwing money away to random unknown student lunches. Just plug in some other students ID 6 digit number and viola free lunch.  There's no hour and minute audit timestamp, no ceiling caps or daily limits or lockout for multiple daily use or other security control. After asking my athlete kid why they've been eating three lunches a day they said they never do that.   The lack of security controls is appaling in this app your better off giving your kid cash even if they lose it once a week than putting $50 in here to be robbed at will by some random kid who knows your kids student ID. I'll be asking the district to replace this app with one that has real security or refund the stolen funds.

### 3/5 — Good when it works

*2019-01-11, version 2.3.5*

Doesn’t always work. Right now, I had been trying and trying to pay, but the “store” is down. And some other features aren’t working either. I can only see the balance.

### 3/5 — Will not show correct balance

*2018-10-18, version 2.3.5*

This app is okay except it keeps showing an incorrect balance. That makes it hard to keep track of how much needs to be put in there.

### 1/5 — Had account, won’t let me log in

*2018-10-14, version 2.3.5*

It was working for the few years I’ve had it.
Now it won’t let me log in says “Connection issue” problem is my internet is working for the house.

### 1/5 — Don’t Love It

*2025-11-07*

I’ve used this app for almost five years now and it’s always been meh/okay.  New this year?  A $2 transaction fee each time you add money to your child’s account.  Annoying, but fine.  Except now the app won’t even let me add money to my child’s account.  I receive an error each time.  The irony of having to pay that $2 transaction fee and then the app not functioning when you need it is not lost on me.

### 1/5 — Impossible

*2025-10-13*

Byzantine app that is nearly useless

### 1/5 — bad

*2024-12-16*

won’t let me make an account even though i filled out everything correctly.

### 1/5 — Wish it worked better

*2024-10-12*

I can’t seem to delete anything from the cart. Not useable

### 1/5 — $3 charge

*2024-08-28*

$3 charge to add money to kids lunch, good job ripping off parents……

### 1/5 — Your fees keep going up!

*2024-03-19*

Wow! Now it’s $2.95 to load money on my sons account. Ridiculous.

### 1/5 — Needs updates and better security

*2024-01-23*

Honestly this app is not good. It is buggy. If you add something to an the cart you better darn well want it because you can’t remove it. Last update was 8 months ago. 

Secondly, how do you have an app dealing with money and not have Face ID security or 2FA in 2024?  Use Apple Pay or something.

### 1/5 — scam alert

*2024-01-18*

I can’t believe my school would use the app! The fees are outrageous.! stay way from this app!!

### 1/5 — Another App that Charges Fees

*2023-08-02*

Avoid the $3 service fee by paying for meals at your school’s office.  Neither the school nor EZSchoolPay wants to refund your money without making it a chore. What a disgusting, parasitic business.

### 1/5 — The app and the program is a joke

*2022-09-19*

So I signed up through our school for Efunds in 2020. I’ve never been able to use anything other than my laptop the very device I signed up for efunds. I couldn’t and can’t sign in on my phone, iPad or my husband devices or laptop. It wants me to register all over again. Generally when you register multiple times for the same thing is says the email is already being used. Nope not this website. It will take your email multiple times with the same password. But then the kicker is anytime I go back to any of my other devices to login it doesn’t recognize my login info on that device so then I need to go back to the last device I signed up  and logged into. This is a complete and utter joke of a website and when I saw the ezschool app that was linked to our efunds link on our school website I thought there was hope but it was the same thing all over again. I can’t believe the incompetent ppl who are designing these apps and sites they have seen enough reviews to have to fix it but they don’t. My recommendation is don’t waste your time with either the app or the website. It will save you a lot of time and frustration. I now just make sure I have check blanks to send to put money on lunch account way easier-buy outdated but way easier.

### 5/5 — Worked great!

*2025-02-25*

I saw that the app had been updated after a lot of the negative reviews so I thought I’d give it a try. 
I was able to setup autopay for my kids lunches with no problem.

### 5/5 — Sweet!

*2023-08-13*

Simple way to pay for food, been using it for years now. Thanks

### 5/5 — Amazing finally a decent app

*2023-08-08*

I am able to see each of my kids and what days they buy food, how much money they have and so on. For the on star that someone else gave, you are dead wrong. Amazing app!!!!

### 5/5 — Works Great with 11 Pro Max

*2019-10-29, version 2.4.7*

Please add dark mode. Only thing I could say against app.

### 5/5 — Must Have :)

*2018-08-10, version 2.3.3*

It’s so easy to use and convenient! I have a 9th grader and it’s so easy to see what they got and check my balance! It’s so nice that I can use my phone to pay. The design is smooth as well. My experience with this app has been stellar! Thank you for making my busy day easier!

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2017-09-27, version 2.0*

Thanks for updating to iOS 11

### 5/5 — Won't work in a week w/iOS 11!! App is decent to refill accounts but

*2017-09-15*

This has always been easy enough to use to refill my children's accounts but the app will not work once the new iOS 11 is released. 

When will this be converted to a 64bit application?

Will you add any new features or security such as pin or touchID for Apple or even Apple Pay support from within the app itself?

### 5/5 — Update App

*2017-01-10, version 1.0.1*

Apple is sending me a message when I open this app that says that it needs to be updated or it will slow down my phone.

### 5/5 — So helpful

*2016-09-21, version 1.0.1*

This is app is so helpful and extremely quick and easy to use.   Really appreciate the developers for making it so easy for me to make sure my daughters never have to worry about lunch.

### 5/5 — Love this App!!!

*2016-01-27, version 1.0.1*

Super convenient and sends reminders when your balance is low. There have been times I forgot the balance was low and my daughter called me during lunch break. I put money on the account and she was able to get lunch right away.
