separate district from school notifications

with the most recent update i now get notifications from the district despite having turned those off. i only need the ones from the school. daily district level notices are mostly spam. please turn those back off!

PLEASE FIX THE NEWEST UPDATE!!!!

PLEASE FIX THE NEW UPDATE!!!

I can’t open anything on the bell with notifications. It says 48 new notifications but every time I click on the ones not opened (or opened) it says “an error occurred…” and I can’t open it and it still has 48 new ones

Also on alerts icon there’s a red dot and I click every one of the new alerts but then it reappears with the same one as if I never clicked on it.

On messages there’s also a red dot but I opened ever message and it still has the red dot by message icon.

Thank you!











Our schools use this app and I love it. You can easily reach out to teachers and it’s a very easy to use app.

The only thing I really wish they would add is a way to bookmark certain posts.
For example, ones that are really important for me, or ones that I can easily go back to if needed, instead of searching through all the posts..

I have 6 kids and in 5 different schools and I get a lot of posts.. some are just info and some require action. It would be SO HELPFUL to be able to bookmark/favorite those certain posts!!

Thank you!!!!

Notifications are worse after interface change.

They made a change in December and I stopped getting notifications. I was struggling missing notifications and reported the issue. I just got an email June 26 the issue was resolved! Maybe, but I won’t know until September. Terrible turnaround time. Messages constantly get lost, they only come in during the day when people are working and there’s no way to mark for follow up and they are lost in the app when new posts come in, very hard to follow up and find things with multiple children and teachers posting.
