Ok but Needs work

Child just started at daycare that uses this app. Could be a lot better considering how much Kindyhub must get paid by daycares.

- timestamps to messages as a bare minimum
- sleep/nap/feed times for workers to input
- notifications for all comms sent by daycare

Looking forward to next update

Crashes all the time

Whenever i get a app notification, i click on it and app crashes. I have open the app again and look thru all sections to find the update.

Worst daycare app ever!!!!!

Worst daycare app not user friendly at all half the time nothing works
Absolutely hate that our daycare uses this

Glitch

Love the layout but doesn’t upload my stories and glitches

Missing key features

Like others have mentioned, this app is good for reading daily reports & seeing photos of baby at daycare, but in my opinion is missing two very important features:
1. Notifications - currently there are no notifications from the app when there are new messages to read or photos to view. This means you need to constantly keep refreshing the app to see if there’s any communications, updates or action required from you.
2. Time Stamps - no time stamps are sent with messages. So when getting messages like “your baby has just gone down for a nap” or “has just woken up” you have no idea when that actually was unless you keep checking the app manually every 15 mins or so.
These two improvements would make a huge difference to the app experience in a very practical way for most parents, I would imagine. Please consider making them, thanks!

Buggy at best

Super buggy. If I try to open from a notification, it closes and signs me out. When the educators upload something, it doesn’t even turn up in my app, I only get it via email. Needs a complete overhaul.

Needs a huge upgrade

Super outdated. Doesn’t notify when anything happens, can’t upload family stories as it gets stuck in a glitch.

Couldn’t get an update of my kids at child care

My kids just move to another class. And now my account couldn’t get any update from my kids.

I had been try sign out and sign in. Restart, uninstalled app and reinstalled but still same issues.

Amazing App.

Wish my centre used Storypark

Moving daycares, and going from Storypark to kindy hub is really disappointing.
Don’t even get notified when class photos are posted even though on a reverie from a year ago I can see you have said it’s coming soon.
Major improvements are needed on this app, maybe have a look at Storypark because unfortunately they are doing it a lot better

Doesnt work.. lousy design

This app doesnt work properly.. and no way the centre can do anything.. it is also not user friendly.

Much room for improvement

Not intuitive, no good UX, but working as expected. Needs account settings.

Terrible

I’ve contacted developers 3 times already. I can’t see full communications or submit family stories.
No response from developers.

Barely functional

Crashes, outdated, bad.

App crashed when I try to open messages

See above comment. Please fix. thank you!

Needs work : too many bugs

Love the purpose of this app but the app has too many bugs. I struggle to read announcements as it just exits the app when trying to load. I can’t upload family stories as it also crashes. Really easy to fix and it will be 5 stars from me

White screen

Awful cant download entire messages. Often goes to a completely white screen, redownload the app still does it. So frustrating.

Glitchy

Whenever I tap a message notification the app opens and then crashes. I then launch the app again and manually go to the messages, and every time the message is long and I need to tap “Read full message” the whole screen goes blank, no message, buttons or menus, which forces me to force close the app as it becomes unusable and I never actually get to read the messages.
This app seems more like a project from someone studying to become a developer than a professionally developed app.

Communication needs improving

As an app used primarily for communicating it’s disappointing that the app doesn’t have notifications when you get a new message or time stamps on communications. This means messages like “your son needs to be picked up in a hour” mean nothing because I don’t know when it was sent and I don’t get notification when it comes in. If these could be added the app would be much more useful

Photos

Please update a version that allows photo download to iPhone. Daycare uploads photos and it won’t allow saving to camera roll. Also, notifications via the app would be really useful.

Bugs still not fixed

A year after reviews about family story not working and they still haven’t fixed the bugs. It freezes during the upload so it’s very frustrating. And no notifications is annoying too, I miss stuff
