Not a Good App

Doesn’t listen to feedback to make the app better.

Helps stay connected and scheduling

Thai is such a great app for parents to stay ahead of all schedules in one place . Is we can have school schedules ( not just PTA) here it will be awesome ! Thanks for all the work on getting this to where it is . Has made life of busy working moms like me a lot better

Am I the only one whose kid moved schools?

It seems *literally* impossible to update my kids school. None of the directions online work. No way to contact Konstella. No way to remove the old profile and add a new one. I’m about to make a new email account just for this. I cannot be the only person whose kid moves schools?

Buggy

Can’t delete an odd committee thread even after leaving the group.

Not improving

I’ve been using this app for the last 8 years and it’s not improving. In fact it’s getting harder to use. They do not update very often but after this recent update, there’s no longer spell check and the bullets/numbers don’t work.

Worse app ever

Hard to navigate. Impossible to find things unless they are right on the announcement board. Each school posts and sets up things differently. What a 🤬 nightmare.
I would rather have things go back to paper than use this garbage.

can't mark all notifications as read

Gets the Job Done

Our PTA has used this app for all family communication at a public school of 500 kids for the last 1.5 years. It takes some practice to get the hang of it but has really helped us with creating and sharing events and small groups within the school.

Great potential, terrible user experience

This could be a great communication platform, but falls a mile short from being usable. Scrolling issues, can’t select and copy text, can’t bookmark or set aside important messages, can’t open links from messages, impossible to organize messages and events

GAME CHANGER— school comms FINALLY all in ONE PLACE!

Our public elementary school (550 students) has used a multitude of channels for communications and it’s very confusing to know where to find the info if it’s not cross-posted. And it changes every year depending on the PTA members.

This simplifies EVERYTHING so parents get all communications in one place— even if they don’t sign up (all parent emails are private and you’ll receive info regardless if you get the app or not—so it’s fully inclusive!)

No need anymore to search through Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Room Rep emails, Principal newsletters, etc. It seamlessly saves updates and offers parents to connect to other parents (again, without them seeing ANY contact information). Privacy is paramount and you can chat with classes/committees/direct messages, see events, get more involved, or just see who is point person to volunteer for any school opptys.

Amazing features like setting up sign-up sheets, fundraising, PTA memberships, selling school merchandise, and more.

Our school is SO excited to have a very simple solution to finally reach all parents to create a more inclusive community that are now more easily informed and involved!

Thank you Konstella!

The worst

This is the worst app I have ever used. It was bad when I started using it 3 years ago when my son started preK and it has steadily gotten worse and worse.
It is slow, it is clunky, it is confusing, and the search function, argument the most important part of the communications app, basically useless. You cannot search chats, cannot scroll up through chats without jumping back-and-forth in the timeline, skipping weeks of communication.
Suppose of my updates every three weeks, but I have never seen any improvements and the fact that they had to be completed in 2016. Makes me believe the company is actually defunct.

Impossible make changes

My children went to different schools in the same school district . Unfortunately it was impossible to have both on this app . It went even worse when they changed their schools . It’s still stuck at the first choice .

Sparse labeling but if you click around you can find things

If you see a blank screen with numbers of parents be sure to click the top right icon to get to the actual list of parents.

Deleted messages or groups keep coming back

I’ve been using this app for 4 years. I keep trying to delete messages and groups I should no longer be in, and I don’t care to see, but they all keep getting reloaded. Developers, pls fix.

Happy person

Wonderfull.We are happy to have this service.Thank you

Wonderful to be connected

This is my grandson’s second year at Stonebridge and I really appreciate all of the information. It really facilitates communication regarding school events, sign ups and general information. Thank you for making this resource available and for all of the hard work that goes into maintaining it.

Buggy garbage with UX from Windows 95

Choose a better platform. Your parents and PTO will thank you.

App buggy and needs Dark Mode

This app has a problem uploading images. It won’t appear most of the time until you kill the app and restart it. Also would be great if we can get dark mode on this to be easier on the eyes.

It is not user friendly at all!

I think it is so hard to tell!! It should be like Facebook kind a format instead of list style. And it will be nice like your one kids chat room and grade page that it shows on top of main page! Like click to your kids room!! Class dojo does way better!! It is so much clear what is going on at school and news of principal comments on the app than this! We are getting all kind info from email and this app and each grade has on site! It is so frustrating to gather all the informations! It should be all in one place!!
