User reviews

Annoying

It would be a great app if the notification number on top of the app worked, mine stayed on 2 for about a year so had to keep checking manually, then changed to 3, eventually deleted app and started again as I couldn’t see when the school put new notices up. See how this one goes??

Noisy

The notifications don’t clear even if you’re able to keep up with the deluge of items that keep being sent.

Turned off notifications and manually check every other day.

Great app overall

The app is very useful. The only downside are the phantom notifications (ones with no actual posts) which can easily be cleared.

App security?

How is this app allowed to function with core data and information about the movement and events of school age children "minors" without the presence of an authentication or security measure protecting it? Is this a school decision or not a feature supported by the app??

Not working

App won’t open, just stays on opening screen… bit difficult with remote learning happening!
