Garbage

The recent updates have been garbage!
The amount of ‘bug fixes’ updates is BS! It’s been weeks and I lost access to the journey documents. ( was able to access them before) Could still scroll across on the photos and could read the first 3/4 lines of what was written but ‘document unavailable’ if I clicked to try to read the whole thing.
Had to get the centre to unshared and then reshare each document (20+) individually.
What a Joke!
And now the notification bell is back. I had already viewed all documents via ‘chats’ previously as that’s how our centre sent them out. But the app wants us to view them 3 different ways before it will remove the notification for each document! Are you insane!?

Response from developer

Ugh, this seems extremely annoying and we’re sorry about the experience. And thank you for the feedback. Our families deserve an extraordinary experience and moments like these are ones we’re working hard to improve for you 🙂 We recently changed how we share documents so that they don’t share via chats and instead share via your home feed. So you won’t have that doubling up that you gave feedback on last time. And you won’t need to view it three times - since documents will no longer show up in chats, once you view it on the home page it gets marked as read. The reason that you’ve viewed each of your items three times is due to the unsharing and resharing. When you’re centre unshares and then reshares something, unfortunately we don’t hold onto previous information of whether you read it or not from a child safety perspective - which is why you’re unread count went up. In order to reduce that count, you will need to review the newly shared document. We fully acknowledge the feedback here and will look to see if we can make this better for you moving forward. Given you’ve had so many issues with your account, we’d love to look into it further to make sure it’s all properly set up! Could you shoot us an email at hello@makemana.com and we can help you out?

The app crashes all the time

Love the idea and the functions but it crashes all the time. I’m unable to read earlier communication form our center as the app crashes everytime I try to scroll up. I believe there are some bugs that need to be fixed.

Response from developer

We’re so sorry about this. We’re releasing a new version of our Families app shortly that we believe will solve this for you. Please bare with us while we get this to you as quickly as we can!

Recent change is disappointing

They have recently included the use of Sue, the AI assistant, to be counted in the number of requests you use, so with the free account when you only get 10 free requests, it’s gone so quickly. Also not sure why i’ve been downgraded to 10 requests a month now instead of 20 as I thought this wasn’t changing for those already signed up before they changed to that. Let down and will probably use another platform soon

Needs work

Can’t get push notifications on iPhone for jottings (yes, notifications are all set to “on”) which our centre uses often to convey updates and news. Only get the once a week email, so I miss important timely comms. Once jottings is read in bell icon menu it should be marked as read. I don’t want to go to the front page to mark it as read.

Have raised with our centre and they can’t help.

Thanks for your feedback! We’re releasing a new version of our Mana Families mid-August (and your centre can opt in now) that we believe will solve all of these for you! We can’t wait to see what you think!

Over the top with ‘notifications’

The amount of emails is ridiculous!! Why is there not an opt out of the constant email spam everytime something is posted.

The ‘catch up’ notification on the main screen is not relevant after seeing the post in each chat the ‘catch up’ should be gone aswell as the notification bell in top right corner. No one has the time to then go into each of these to clear the notification.

Why when opening each chat the first thing on the page the start of the chat, and one needs to navigate down to the latest post.

Response from developer

Hey there! We are sooooooooooooo sorry about the email spam. That should be fixed for you now. Also, totally hear you about the Catch Ups and Chats having the same things in two places. We're working on that. Let us know if there is anything else we can do to make your experience magical: hello@makemana.com.
