### 4/5 — Larger limit please!

*2026-08-22, version 17.0*

I wish the letter count limit wasn’t so low! I really hate having to input 10 messages instead of 1; I feel like I’m spamming everyone. Besides that, I love this app so much. I use it for all of my school clubs and classes

### 2/5 — Remind app and teaches

*2026-08-21, version 17.0*

They are always posting things last minute. And do not respond promptly

### 2/5 — This app sucks

*2026-08-20, version 17.0*

this app does not work period. the school need to invest in another app for communication

### 2/5 — Glitch??

*2026-08-20, version 17.0*

This app says that I’m under 13 when I’m literally 13 soon to be 14 and that I can’t join a class that’s owned by my science teacher

### 4/5 — Great app

*2026-08-19, version 17.0*

Great app, but wish I could remove old messages from my conversations list.

### 3/5 — Lacking basic functionality

*2026-08-14, version 15.10*

I’ve been using this app for years, as Remind seems to have a lock on teachers and my district. It’s incredibly basic. 1) There is no a “Join a Group” option within the app. 2) None of my contacts have photos. I learned why when I tried to add one; the tool zooms into 5% of the image and you can’t zoom out. 3) Every iPhone upgrade is reflected as a unique device in my account. But they all have the same name: “iPhone”. 4) I can’t customize the type of notifications I get by group? Listservs have been doing this since the 90’s, people.

God knows how much money you’re making selling my family’s and educators’ personal information, internet usage and “other data” - you can afford enhancements.

### 5/5 — Why can’t one be able to change email on this app?

*2026-08-12, version 15.10*

I used a different email instead of my school’s. To change it now became “much ado about nothing.”

### 5/5 — Teacher and staff Communication with Remind

*2026-08-12, version 15.10*

I like using Remind it helps me out to communicate with my daughter teacher and staff

### 2/5 — No reason to get

*2026-08-11, version 15.10*

The app is pointless texting Schoology infinite campus all work for this

### 5/5 — Communication

*2026-08-07, version 15.10*

Love this app this! This app has helped me keep in contact with the teacher throughout the school year and I absolutely loved it!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-08-07, version 15.10*

Great way to connect with teachers at any time. I love how teachers reach out to you with questions we as parents have. Specially with parents that work late. Thank you all for your wonderful support.

### 4/5 — Wish I could delete the messages

*2026-08-04, version 15.10*

Wishing I could delete messages that I don’t want anymore.

### 1/5 — Unable to view earlier messages

*2026-08-23, version 17.0*

Unable to tap on link to view previous messages sent by the teacher. This needs to be corrected. This is the 3rd time I’ve experienced this.

### 1/5 — Terribly difficult

*2026-08-21, version 17.0*

-9

### 1/5 — Antiquated

*2026-08-18, version 15.10*

This has to be the most ridiculous platform available. You can’t delete your child’s old classes if you change teachers mid year you have to add that teacher. It’s always something. Why instead of linking this to the teacher who I don’t know or care about why not link it to my child.

### 1/5 — Won’t let me get the app

*2026-08-17, version 15.10*

It won’t let me get the app it says I got a billing issue

### 1/5 — BLOCKED

*2026-08-16, version 15.10*

More than half of your communications are likely to be blocked by the app for “not conforming to their terms of service”. What is the point of communication with your child’s teacher? 

ZERO freedom of speech on this application. Find another avenue.

### 1/5 — Teacher

*2026-08-14, version 15.10*

My remind messages will not go through as texts. I have tried everything suggested and it still won’t work!!

### 1/5 — Not user friendly

*2026-08-13, version 15.10*

Very difficult to navigate

### 1/5 — Awful

*2026-08-01, version 15.10*

Impossible to find a class. Tons of bugs.

### 1/5 — Faulty

*2026-07-10, version 15.10*

There are people/organizations I’m tied to; I have no idea who they are. There is no way to leave a particular organization or remove people.

### 1/5 — App sucks

*2026-07-10, version 15.10*
