こんなアプリ、どうやって学校端末の標準アプリとして採用されているのですか?しっかりと検証しろうよ。

ひどすぎる。

初めてレビューします。少しでも市の職員の方が見て別のアプリを検討頂ける可能性になるように。。。市に指定されて、仕方なく導入しましたが、本当に使えない制限アプリです。時間指定したら時間指定までYouTubeをみていたとしたら、制限時間中ずっとYouTubeが流れ続け、消すことも閉じることも電源を消すことすらできません。解除してとめようとすると、かなりの高頻度でアプリエラーを起こし設定を親側でも解除出来なくなることが多々あります。設定の仕方も日本語がおかしい。わかりにくい。なぜこれを市が指定するのか理解に苦しみます。ペアレントコントロールアプリとしては最低です。

Terrible experience, cannot set any restrictions or rule. Failed as the apps.

Super user-unfriendly. Very hard to understand each function by just reading the labels. The device rules and restrictions fail to work on child’s PLD- which means the only purpose of this apps’ existence FAILS. The whole setting just messed up: Ipad freeze, apps disappear out of nowhere, timing settings go haywire in a weird way against the intent. As a result, children who are only 12 end up using the Ipad uncontrollably while parents cannot do anything to help them. Very frustrating indeed, but we as parents and children are stuck in the same situation everyday.

Not helpful

For this App to be useful it needs time limits. I.e. Allow 30 minutes of games or YouTube after school. Apple controls can’t do this without also applying during school time. So the only option to Parents is to use the Apple option. But then while at school if being used by a teacher then the kids have to ask for more time and just hope one parent can respond quickly while at work!

Not working and not intuitive

For more than a month, the app has not been working. Only shows error msg. Before it stopped working, the design was really bad. It was not clear how any setup affected the ipad. Had to do by trial and error. Even then, the outcome was never consistent. Very frustrating and badly affects my child’s learning and leisure times. UX/UI design really needs a re-think badly.
