### 2/5 — Buggy with poor UX

*2024-08-13, version 5.6.28000*

Hey, Parkway!  I know we don’t have an enormous	budget for app development, but it feels like we could still do better.  For example, why must I mark all message as read every time I open the app?  I could answer the question, but I’m not on the payroll.  Hire better devs!

### 1/5 — Too complicated

*2021-08-19, version 5.2.100*

There seems to be no straightforward way to use this app. Even the Help function leads me down a rabbit hole of guesswork and confusion. 
— case in point: I can’t submit this review (yet?) because every “nickname” I choose is taken, apparently.  So I have to find an unused nickname just to tell other people that this app is impossible!?

### 1/5 — Settings Preferences

*2019-04-22, version 5.2.100*

It’s good for the most part I suppose.  I would like to have the option of scrolling and clicking on the content that pertains to our family’s needs, like, being able to opt out of the PAMEE meetings texts/announcements instead of not being able to get other pkwy content updates.

### 5/5 — Great

*2017-04-23, version 5.0.300*

Really easy to use and stay caught up on what's going on.

### 5/5 — Works as advertised

*2017-01-14, version 5.0.300*

Does what it intends to do. I know what I need to about my kids school.

### 3/5 — App not opening

*2016-11-28, version 5.0.300*

Normally, this app is fantastic and works well; however, the latest version starts to open then auto-closes before the different icons show up.

Please consider an update to this app as it has become useless.

### 5/5 — Best

*2016-02-24, version 4.5.000*

Best app ever

### 5/5 — Out standing!

*2015-09-03, version 4.3.001*

It's a start, but hands down, great works, yes need to be updated by teachers, over great work!

### 5/5 — Great way to stay connected

*2015-08-21, version 4.3.001*

This app has been very helpful and a convenient way to stay connected and up-to-date with my daughter's school progress. It provides answers to all my questions in one place!

### 3/5 — Good app. Not optimized

*2015-06-29, version 4.3.001*

App is not optimized for iPhone 6 Plus display. Looks grainy
