Like but improvements

I wish you could view photos differently. If I post an announcement, then post photos, my announcements get lost. Or if you could have a tab for just word announcements.

Uploading pics

I have been having trouble uploading my pics

A Proud and Satisfied Teacher

I Just really love and enjoy this little app makes a big difference for those working and busy parents to see what’s going on inside the classroom We get to share very educational and memorable moments with our families
Very Pleased
***Just wish we could load longer videos!

Submitting Photos

The only thing I will complain is not being able to upload many photos at a time. It’s very time consuming when you have to add 3-9 photos at a time. I wish you could upload more. Can they please fix this. Is would help so much!

Troubles

Having trouble lately with getting pictures to upload easily

Finally

Finally a completely easy to use photo sharing app that lets you write about the pictures too. I’ve tried a bunch, this is the best and easiest. My families love it!

It freezes! Cannot upload

It freezes! Cannot upload

Frustrating app never works

My preschool uses this app and i am writing as a teacher. I’m not able to upload pictures and in the event that I am, it takes forever. As a busy teacher this app is frustrating and disappointing. I have tried one picture at a time and it still doesn’t work. Any input is appreciated

Why can’t I just view the pictures without setting up an account?

That is all.

Review

I love Homeroom, but I do wish there were a few more options… I wish we had the option to select several photos at once and delete them from the gallery. I also wish there was a way to move photos around.

Sadly this App is outdated for Android!

It works amazing for iphone, but not all of our parents use an iphone! We will have to search for another platform.

Love this easy to use app!!

I am loving this as a way to share a glimpse of our school day to my kindergarten parents! So simple and easy to use and keeps everything in one location. I only wish I could reorder the photos after uploading and have them stay exactly in the order that I want. Other than that, this app is great 👍🏽🙂

I kinda like Homeroom

Can’t Upload any Photos

I’ve used this app for 3 yrs. Used to love it. Last year the photos would take forever to upload sometimes. Now I haven’t been able to upload a single photo for one month. I have no choice but to switch to a different app. There seems to be no support for this app. I know 2 other teachers with same problems.

Great photo sharing for classrooms

I have used this app for the past 4 years to share photos with parents/families of my preschool students. It is a similar format to facebook, photos you upload are posted for participants to view, like and comment on. Users can also save photos you post to their device and you can have more than one group at a time. It’s easy to start a new group for a new school year, or delete an old one. You can turn off some of the features depending on the privacy level you want. I suggest teachers check their settings before inviting parents so that only you can edit settings or add people. Only people you invite to join the group can view the pictures and announcements you post and you can easily remove people if needed. You can have more than one admin if you have coteachers or assistants. My only complaint is that it can be very slow to upload pictures sometimes. It is faster to upload 1-2 photos at a time, otherwise photos get stuck in a seemingly endless uploading phase and don’t post until hours or days later.

Use a toast! Not a full screen takeover!

I HATE that every time I save a photo, I get taken out of the experience because a full screen modal covers the screen in black with a checkmark to tell me that I saved the photo successfully. Omg. Just use a toast! A tiny snack bar!

Love

I love how easy it is to use this app. I also just created my sons first book of school pics! Love the book feature!

Crashes

I used to be able to save photos from the app but now it crashes every single time I try and has for the last year.

Proceed with caution

We had successfully used Homeroom as a private network for our school’s families — and it worked quite well — until about last year sometime.

Some issues we’ve continually experienced
1. Image uploading: you add image and then there are no images to select
2. After getting image to load, you write a long detailed message & none of it posts
3. You are limited to 50 subscribers

Hope this helps.
