### 3/5 — I can see work

*2026-08-23, version 3.64.300050730*

I can see work

### 2/5 — The most important thing is useless

*2026-08-20*

I need classroom for school of course and I need the notifications to keep me on track of my work and assignments but the notifications do nothing. I get a notification that says you have a new assignment so I tap on it and it just takes me to all the classes. It doesn’t take me to the new assignment which is useless. What’s the point of telling me I have an assignment but you don’t tell me what it is and you don’t take me too it? Either way, I still have to have the app for school. The notifications used to say what the assignment was but then it changed. It was much more useful when it actually told me what it was. If you’re gonna change the notifications just make it so they at least take me to the assignment or private comment or announcement. Like you say I have a new assignment, that’s great, what’s the assignment? And you keep changing it. You have it so the notifications are helpful and say the assignment then you change it and now it just says I have an assignment. Like are there people telling you to have it so it doesn’t say the assignment? As far as I’ve seen, people definitely agree with me and I don’t now why you keep going back and forth.
Other than that…it’s ok. Everything else works fine but for me the notifications are the most important and that’s what you’re failing at. Please change it.

### 1/5 — La pire application

*2026-08-16, version 3.64.300050730*

Google Classroom est franchement l’une des applications les plus énervantes que l’humanité ait réussi à créer. À chaque fois que j’ouvre l’application, j’ai immédiatement l’impression que ma journée vient de perdre toute sa valeur. Le simple fait de voir l’icône de Classroom suffit presque à me rappeler tous les devoirs que j’aurais préféré oublier. L’application est censée aider les élèves à s’organiser, mais parfois on dirait qu’elle a été spécialement conçue pour augmenter le stress. Tu ouvres tranquillement Classroom et là, surprise : une montagne de devoirs, de travaux, de questions et de notifications t’attend comme si tu avais signé un contrat pour travailler gratuitement jusqu’à la fin de tes jours. Et les notifications… parlons-en. Classroom adore envoyer des notifications pour absolument tout. Un nouveau devoir ? Notification. Une modification ? Notification. Un professeur ajoute quelque chose ? Encore une notification. Tu pourrais presque croire que ton téléphone est devenu l’employé personnel de Google Classroom. Et bien sûr, il y a toujours LE devoir que tu pensais avoir remis. Tu appuies sur « Remettre », tu attends, tu regardes l’écran tourner pendant une éternité et tu commences à te demander si ton devoir est réellement envoyé ou s’il est actuellement en train de voyager à travers Internet à la vitesse d’un escargot. Puis, quand ça fonctionne enfin, tu dois vérifier trois fois pour être certain que le bouton dit bien « Remis ». Parce qu’évidemment, faire confiance à l’application serait beaucoup trop facile. La recherche de documents est aussi une aventure complètement inutile. Tu cherches un fichier précis et tu te retrouves avec 37 documents portant des noms incompréhensibles, des anciennes versions, des copies et des fichiers dont tu ne te souviens même pas avoir créé l’existence. Et quand un professeur modifie une consigne à la dernière seconde, tu dois retourner voir le devoir pour découvrir ce qui a changé. Pourquoi ? Pourquoi ne pouvons-nous simplement pas avoir une application normale où tout est clair, simple et facile à trouver ? Même l’organisation des cours peut devenir un véritable labyrinthe. Tu sais que l’information existe quelque part, mais retrouver exactement où elle se trouve devient une mission secondaire digne d’un jeu vidéo. Et le meilleur moment, c’est lorsque Classroom te rappelle qu’un devoir est en retard. Merci, Google. J’avais complètement oublié que j’avais un devoir à faire, mais maintenant que tu viens de me le rappeler avec une notification à 22 h 30, ma soirée est officiellement ruinée. Classroom réussit donc l’exploit de transformer quelque chose qui devrait simplement être un outil scolaire en une source supplémentaire de frustration. Ce n’est pas une application que j’ouvre avec enthousiasme. Je l’ouvre parce que je suis obligé. Si Google Classroom était une personne, ce serait probablement celle qui arrive dans ta chambre à 23 h pour te dire : « Au fait, tu as oublié ton devoir. » Et franchement, même une calculatrice cassée serait parfois plus agréable à utiliser. Google Classroom n’est peut-être pas officiellement conçu pour rendre les élèves fous, mais il fait un travail absolument remarquable pour s’en rapprocher.

### 1/5 — Hate this

*2026-08-16, version 3.64.300050730*

So much homework I wish Ts never existed

### 3/5 — Teacher’s opinion

*2026-08-16, version 3.64.300050730*

As a teacher using GC, I find it helpful to upload and disburse information to students but it’s slow and clunky. It needs to be more streamlined and customizable but you get what you pay for. I’ll keep using it only because I can upload pdf documents that students can access when they miss class or lose the paper handout I gave them.

### 1/5 — Horrible

### 2/5 — This VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!!! READ IT

*2026-08-15, version 3.48.300043800*

I was walking on the hot and humid streets trying to log into Google classroom and suddenly I get hit by a car. I could feel my bones breaking, my butt itching and then…I hit the floor with a sickening scream. My body felt like a thousand paper cuts were on me then I saw a man but not just any man, a homeless man looking for money. He came up to me, staring at my phone that had plot armor and he started punching me and screaming “TRIPLE T WOULDN’T BE PROUD OF YOU”. Then I knew why this man was homeless but then I heard a loud train coming and realized… WE WERE ON TRAIN TRACKS. I tried to move but my back was in agony and I couldn’t move and then a crunch sound came and some how and some way I survived. But this story wasn’t over yet, “CONGRATULATIONS YOU JUST WON A MILLION DOLLARS” someone yelled out but then I saw with my blurry eyes it was Mr.Beast himself. I thanked myself for subscribing on Mr.Beast’s channel and he helped me up but it hurt every second but it was worth it. I could get so many baddies with this kind of money. I started crying, not because of happiness but because I had dust in my eye.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — だるい

*2026-08-23*

通知には新しいお知らせがありますとだけ書いてて通知からアプリにとんでもアプリが起動するだけでどのクラスのお知らせなのか結局わからない。多分投稿に資料や課題を添付されているものは重複して通知されていることがある。学校の授業が自分で選択するタイプなのでクラスの数が膨大になり、一つの通知に対して全部のクラスをひらいて確認するのはそれなりに時間がかかります。ここまではそのうち改善してくれればいい話ですがここからです。レビューを見てると1年前、2年前に似ている内容のレビューを残されているのにもかかわらず未だに改善されていないことです。運営からの返信もないようです。学校から指定されている以上このアプリを使うしかないんです。レビューを読んで改善するかこれ以上何も変える気がないならサービスを終了してください

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-08-21, version 3.64.300050730*

It’s plain out stupid

### 1/5 — trauma in a nutshell.

*2026-08-21, version 3.64.300050730*

something about riding your bike to the sound of “it’s no big deal”

### 1/5 — Well, well, well……

*2026-08-20, version 3.64.300050730*

Me: I couldn’t walk for a year after the accident 
Them: What accident?
Me: my birth-AHEM-me using Google Classroom

Moral of the story: don’t use Google Classroom, or you want be able to walk for a year.

### 1/5 — This app is buns ngl

Why Google Classroom Sucks

Google Classroom is honestly one of the worst things ever invented. I would rather do literally anything else than open Google Classroom. Every time I see that little Classroom icon, I already know my day is about to get worse.

First of all, it is SO BUGGY. I click on an assignment and it takes forever to load. Then I click it again because I think it didn’t work, and suddenly it opens five times. Sometimes I turn something in and Google Classroom acts like I never did it. BRO, I JUST TURNED IT IN! How am I supposed to prove I did my homework if the app doesn’t even know what is happening?

And there is ALWAYS homework. You open the app and BOOM, 17 missing assignments. Like bro, I just got home. Can I breathe for five seconds? Teachers act like we have nothing else to do except stare at Google Classroom all day. I swear they think homework is a hobby.

And don’t even get me started on teachers. Some teachers give you one assignment and then randomly add five more at 10:47 PM. WHY?! I hate school sometimes because it feels like school follows you home. I already spent all day there! Let me go play games or something.

Another thing that sucks is when an assignment says “Due at 11:59 PM.” That means I’m going to remember it at 11:58 PM and start panicking. Then Google Classroom decides to load slower than a potato. Now I’m sitting there staring at my screen while the spinning loading circle has basically become my best friend.

School would honestly be way better if teachers gave less homework and Google Classroom stopped being so buggy. Unfortunately, that will probably never happen because teachers apparently LOVE assigning stuff.

In conclusion, Google Classroom sucks, homework sucks, the app is buggy, and sometimes school and teachers suck too. I just want to go home, eat some food, play games, and NOT have 47 assignments waiting for me. Thank you for listening to my very important essay.
