Last year as my first year at MCPS coming from DC and I was looking for an app to help me keep up with the schools as well as my daughter’s progress. I must say I should have read the reviews first. This app is terrible. Signing up was easy but I haven’t and still can’t see my daughters progress, it just shows her grade and teacher, I know that information already. I don’t get any notifications at all I have to physically open the app only to see all my notifications. I tried updating my contact info but the app just closes out and then when open the app again there’s a notifications saying the school has to change my contact info🙄 This is just ridiculous all around. If there is a better app than this one I will gladly download it ASAP ### 1/5 — Horrible app *2020-01-14, version 5.2.102* Will not log me in with login ID and password which works on desktop. Keeps saying invalid ID or password. Deleted app and redownloaded multiple times. Sent email to support center and no response a day later. All around poor experience. I need app access not desktop. ### 1/5 — My review *2019-11-25, version 5.2.102* This app is just awful do not download it ### 2/5 — This app badly needs to be fixed *2019-11-10, version 5.2.102* This app takes forever to update the grades, logs me out occasionally, and it’s shown me the wrong grades before. ### 1/5 — Can’t Log In *2019-10-05, version 5.2.102* Frustrating as it keeps saying my password is incorrect on this app. I have no trouble with logging in on my laptop/website using the same password so obviously its a technical glitch that should be easy enough to fix, so basically usable to check student info. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2019-09-19, version 5.2.102* This app has not worked for me in the last two years. I can log in from my Mac or PC with the same credentials and it works fine but if I use those same credentials on the app it says my information is incorrect. I’ve deleted the app and reinstalled and it still does not work. It doesn’t work for my daughter either. Very frustrating. ### 1/5 — Very hard to use *2019-09-09, version 5.2.102* The app’s just not easy to navigate and makes simply checking grades and seeing possible scores a chore ### 1/5 — Just stupid *2019-08-27, version 5.2.102* Says I have a invalid password even though I’m positive I have the right one I don’t get why this app is so bad bro mcps fix your game smh ### 1/5 — yeet *2019-08-01, version 5.2.102* i just don’t like school ### 3/5 — good aesthetic, didn’t let me log in *2019-08-01, version 5.2.102* liked the interface, wouldn’t let me log in early august, idk if it’s because they change the password (which is incredibly dumb and annoying). ### 1/5 — Login not working *2019-07-30, version 5.2.102* I don’t know why but my login doesn’t work on the app. Please fix it because I want to use the app. ### 2/5 — Very Bad *2019-06-12, version 5.2.102* I gave it a 2 because it does not let me login in my grades ### 2/5 — ! *2019-05-14, version 5.2.102* When I tried to log in it kept on telling me that my username and password where wrong, and my grade percentages where always wrong compared to mcps portal. ### 3/5 — Please! Format for mobile!!! *2019-05-09, version 5.2.102* Notifications from school are usually fine. Notifications from Central have a 50% chance of being readable on the phone app - half run over the screen, and sometimes you can pull over to read the text but often not. Dr Smith’s messages are frequently misformatted and I’d like to read those. Announcement re Dr Navarro curriculum discussion at Paint Branch totally unreadable. ### 3/5 — I thought it would be better *2019-03-07, version 5.2.102* I thought it should be better because I thought it should be one of the things that give you notifications on your phone saying you missed a class or you have just dropped a grade but I doesn’t do any of that. So I weather have power school it was so much better ### 1/5 — Won’t Send Alerts and notifications *2019-01-30, version 5.2.102* School was canceled today due to weather. According to this Ap school is open. It’s useless if you can’t depend on it to give you correct information. ### 1/5 — mcps who? *2019-01-20, version 5.2.102* ew. ### 2/5 — This is not a good app. *2019-01-14, version 5.2.102* This app was never very good, and it is not maintained frequently enough for it to be functional. It is difficult to get to my grades; the app makes me log in every time I use it, and the interface is cluttered with unnecessary resources. I have downloaded myMCPS+, which is a far better app, but I am still frustrated that this app does not work. It won’t even let me log in anymore, on the rare occasion that it actually loads the login screen. The other review is condescending and somewhat judgmental, so let me say this: I am a student, not a parent. I am no tech wizard, but I am far from technologically incompetent. I am not complaining because I thought Edline was better or because I don’t feel like learning a new layout. I am complaining because this app is bad and does not work. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I’m at the WORST school dirtrect!! *2022-11-12, version 5.2.102* So like I’m at forest knolls elemantery and I was not treated fairly ### 1/5 — Trend *2020-10-27, version 5.2.102* Trend ### 1/5 — Bad😡 *2020-08-31, version 5.2.102* This is terrible it won’t let me sign in 😪😾😊😐 ### 1/5 — Kicked me out and password reset doesn’t work *2020-08-17, version 5.2.102* Says to contact my school administrator, WTH? Worked fine all last year - idiot programmers ### 1/5 — no❤️ *2020-08-16, version 5.2.102* mcps is crusty 😹 ### 1/5 — Just use the website instead *2020-06-02, version 5.2.102* I tried hundreds of times trying to log in to my account to check my grades without pulling up the website a million times. This is worst. My main issue is that I couldn’t even log in. ### 1/5 — bad app *2020-03-24, version 5.2.102* bad app ### 1/5 — This app is a huge fail. *2020-03-20, version 5.2.102* The app is impossible to edit. I don’t always have time to call the school to make changes to my account, such as address, email address, preferences, etc. the task of viewing grades for my kids classes requires too many steps. I really hate it. ### 1/5 — Time *2020-03-20, version 5.2.102* Grades are not updated in a timely fashion ### 1/5 — Minimal Functionality, Never Updated *2020-02-04, version 5.2.102* Not only does it look like it was made in 2010, the UI is clunky at best. The only thing students will realistically use it for, checking grades, requires 4 taps to see (and the first 2 don’t make any sense). Additionally, they haven’t even updated it to any modern screen size. This app is a disgrace. If MCPS couldn’t afford to make and maintain anything good, they should’ve just asked a student. Anyone in the MBHS magnet could’ve done better. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-08-13, version 5.2.102* This is a GREAT APP because I’m a mcps student that can check emails or stuff like that but people say you can’t see your kids grade, OK, but like first of all this app is not for that and second of all to check your grades is called MY MCPS PORTAL but yeah this is a great app ### 5/5 — Who ate da poop?!? *2019-02-02, version 5.2.102* Seriously who ate da poop?!? ### 5/5 — Great for teachers *2018-12-16, version 5.2.102* I am a MCPS teacher and this app is fantastic! It is so easy to use and navigate! ### 5/5 — I don’t get the complaining *2018-03-26, version 5.2.102* I don’t know what the issue is, we’re supposed to be reviewing the app not comparing it to Edline. I think this app is great, it tells you your grades and the percents. That’s all I need and there’s bonus applications inside of the app so this is even better then Edline. ### 5/5 — cool *2018-03-19, version 5.2.102* a good app ### 5/5 — Why? *2018-01-25, version 5.2.102* Why? Because y’all should follow me on Instagram @ ayeee.adrian Also add on sc@ ayeee.adrian ### 5/5 — What was Edline again??? *2017-10-11* This is by far the better app compared to Edline. On myMCPS, teachers can interact better with the students. It's easy to access grades, homework help, missing work, instruction, and contact teachers! I have no idea what people down there are saying! One star is simply NOT acceptable. -Student ### 5/5 — Top notch *2017-09-25, version 5.2.102* Best app I have ever used in my life better than any social media app ever created. Everyone should use this app it’s so great. Psn: akaSyh- ### 5/5 — Much better parent app than EdLine *2017-09-20* iPhone app lets parents see progress for more than one kid, individual classes, grades, and assignments. Has link to news, Google Classroom, calendar, many other things that look useful. EdLine app didn’t really work times we tried it. Teachers said it is taking some getting used to for them. But looks like a decent helper for kids, teachers, and parents. ### 5/5 — Great *2017-09-16* It's a good app, but Edline was simpler and faster. Still, this app is great and smooth, and has more access to other things. Edit: after using this app, I've decided it deserves a 5 star. Idk why people give it a 1 star just because it feels more complicated. MyMCPS has so many great features, and doesn't deserve a 1 and a half star rating.
