## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Display and selection options

*2026-04-28*

Display options in app are not available if one chooses to increase font size. Waist of time app.

### 1/5 — Login/register is garbage

*2025-08-12*

Can’t register, can’t login, endless rerouting , QR scan does nothing.
It shouldn’t be this hard

### 1/5 — Buggy would be generous

*2025-03-18*

Currently in an endless loop resetting my password. But that is the least of it. Good luck setting a time for late arrival. It has to start at the standard start time, put the actual arrival as the end time. But the end time can’t be before the end of school. The list goes on and on.

### 1/5 — Scheduled Pass

*2024-11-27, version 1.0.80*

There should be a way to schedule a pass and/or duplicate it. For example every Monday sport training 7:30-9:00. At the moment this has to be entered every week. If a scheduled pass cannot be made how about an option to set up a draft where we can just add the date? The way it is not is extremely tedious! Every Sunday I have to make up 5 passes.

### 1/5 — Unable to enter details. Use another app if possible

*2024-11-08, version 1.0.80*

Unable to enter details into forms.
Pop up boxes block where you need to enter info.
Always have to resubmit the form before it will be saved.

### 1/5 — awful!

*2024-11-04*

This is the worst app I’ve ever worked with. Just awful!!!

### 1/5 — Not a fan

*2024-01-16*

Poorly designed. Not intuitive. Doesn’t allow me to enter the reason for the absence, even though it wants me to enter the reason for the absence. This app needs to be overhauled.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2024-01-04*

It would be nice if the app actually worked. None of the drop down menus work. I can’t approve passes.

### 5/5 — Easy to Use

*2026-05-12*

The Orah Parent App is a game changer for recording my child's absence, early/late dismissals. This saves me endless email chains or phone calls to the school.

### 5/5 — Easy and Convenient

*2026-04-29*

The app works really well for us to inform the school when our child is going to be late or absent. No complaints!
