I’ve always had problems with Parro, especially when trying to copy text or make sense of calendar event time zone when outside of the Netherlands/Western Europe. Those problems remain, but now I can’t even open the app on my old iPhone because it forces iOS 15. Such a pain.
Only in Dutch
I’m sure it’s a handy system if you speak Dutch. If not it introduces a serious barrier to being involved in your child’s education in any way.
When the content the schools send out is in Dutch and the app does have a translate function like email does. Putting the menus and app itself in English does not solve the real issue.
It says a *lot* about the schools that adopt Parro. A core aspect of education instruction focuses on driving parental engagement in order to improve student outcomes, but the schools who implement Parro clearly don’t value that at all for their students with parents who don’t speak Dutch.

We are working on a translation feature and will be releasing that somewhere during this schoolyear. We don't have an exact date jet.
Mooi!
Mooie manier om met de school in contact te blijven.

Disaster
What a disaster is this app. Keeps logging me out, does not accept new login credentials and keeps showing me unread messages while i read them.
