One of the worst apps I’ve interacted with
I work at a daycare and was told to download the app to make it easier for when we don’t have the classroom tablet. What a mistake that was. The app is under developed, confusing, and most of the time it just flat out doesn’t work. And I’ve gotten the same complaints from the parents at my center too! Most of them don’t even have the app still downloaded because of how bad it is. In todays age I honestly can’t wrap my head around why this app isn’t better. It’s 2022, everything is on our phones now but this company has done nothing to improve user experience. Just use the desktop site, it’s much easier.

Worst app ever
I honestly cannot fathom why anyone would choose to use this app. The message function which is probably the most important for communicating with teachers or caregivers is TERRIBLE. Messages appear out of order and in random colors and disappear after you send them. ALSO the notifications don’t work so if a teacher messages you you don’t get notified on your phone (yes I have all notifications for the app turned on in my settings). Worst app ever.

Barely the bare minimum
I just installed the app on my phone after becoming very familiar with it on iPad. I travel between rooms and often need to log in as different classes to add observations and documentation’s. My very first time adding evidence on my phone the platform didn’t load large enough to see all the boxes, nor did it let me scroll down to find them or even hit finish/done.
When adding evidence you are unable to score or rate the evidence even by the standards used in the Vine assessment, this means you have no way of knowing if a child met the standard when you added the evidence. Teaching Strategies GOLD provides a crystal clear evaluation and scoring system that allows you to quickly see the previous results and determine future needs of a child.
My center contacted their support and they said there was no way to edit or change the roster system (which is not to code with ODJFS) or the evidence system.

Response from developer
Hello!You can log onto the website to edit or delete an observation using the same log in credentials that you have for the Classroom App.
Can be better
After 2 updates and bug fixes I’m still having issues with logging in time. I can’t update meals, diapering or anything because the time is not visible. I can’t scroll up or down because I can’t see anything. Is anyone else having same issues
