User reviews

Good app so far! Just a feature request

It would be very helpful if when making groups it grayed out students who were already placed in other groups so you would quickly be able to see who still needs to be placed.

Response from developer

Thanks for this suggestion! We currently indicate students that are in the current group so that the teacher cannot re-add them to the same group. I'd follow up on adding some indication of students in other groups so as to prevent adding a student to multiple groups by mistake. Expect the app update soon. Thanks for using GRo and thanks for the suggestion.

disappointed

keeps crashing,,, emailed support - they responded the first time and it continues to crash and then i sent a second email and i haven't received a response,,,sadly, i paid for this app and it just crashes...disappointed

Response from developer

Hello, I responded to you via email, but I thought I'll follow up here. First I would like to apologize for the super late response on behalf of the team here at GRo. Customers trust is of utmost importance to us and I would like to apologize for not meeting up to that standard. Second, I would like to explain why it took too long to respond. GRo has recently got a new owner. My name is Fortune and I recently (in the middle of August) acquired the app after realizing it had been left idle by the previous owners for a long time. I understand the value this app brings to teachers and by extension their students and the students' parents. And so, I am currently going through the previous support emails to ensure I respond to every person that wasn’t responded to. Third, after seeing your support email dated October 23rd 2021, I immediately got to fixing the issue that caused the crash. Because it had been too long, I didn’t have access to the logs and so I had to make some intelligent guesses of the cause of the crash. Good news is, I believe I fixed it! I put out an update in the apple store a few days ago. If you update your app or re-download it, you should find the issue fixed. If it isn’t fixed, please send us an email and we will get to it! If for any reason Apple attempts to charge you again, please let me know and I would give you a promo code that would enable you to download it for free! I hope you can give GRo another chance to delight you and your students in this new academic year. Cheers

Amazing!

Great app for tracking lesson plans and assessments. It saves me a ton of time. Being able to generate reports and send lesson plans is really convenient also. Keep up the great work!

Response from developer

Thanks for the kind comments. We hope you still enjoy using GRo!

Perfect app for the class room

I've been using this app a lot to track groups within my class. You can create and track students for any subject and add notes in text, picture or audio. Having my class, groups, calendar, assessments, lesson plans all in one place is super convenient. I love the stop watch on lesson plans also! I plan on using the audio feature for recording readings and the graphed assessment results for parent-teacher meetings in the fall. One question - is there a way to customize the order in which students appear in a class?👍👍

Response from developer

Thank you for the kind comments. We are glad to hear you are enjoying GRō features. Regarding your question: you can customize the order in which students appear by simply holding your finger on a student and dragging to the desired position in the class. Thank you for using GRō.

Awesome App!

This app has won me over. The best $10 I’ve ever spent! The assessments and note tracking features are excellent. I love that the app lets you generate and email a pdf on a student. You can also duplicate then edit a lesson plan instead of creating one from scratch which saves time. You can quickly take student notes right on the lesson plan also. It really does save a bunch of time and paper. Keep up the good work!
