### 3/5 — Is it me-?

*2023-02-04*

I thought I had found the perfect app for me to use to find out which schools are in the area of the part of Connecticut we’re moving to. I love how easy it was to get to the list and the minimalist appearance of the list made it easy to see. I was very happy to get to the actual list of schools which was very helpful. However, then I went to put in a new zip code and there seemed to be no way to back out of the current page. Or it wasn’t clear how to do so. I had to close the app each time and go back in to get to the list of types of schools. That was enough without finding that when I wanted to change the area of my search there was no way to do that. (Or, again, it wasn’t clear.) I tried logging off and going back in a few times but it always brought me back to the previous list. There seemed to be no way to change my search area. Is it me-? Perhaps it’s my own error-?  I’m disappointed to have been met with this issue because it looked like the perfect app for what I needed.  : (

### 1/5 — Wong schools

### 1/5 — Location search not working well

*2016-12-21*

Will search for schools near current location. Typing in postal code or different location reverts back to current GPS location results

### 2/5 — Don't be boring

### 1/5 — Dont bother

Its lacking Christian collages and miss labels schools 
Needs more updated information and even a basic review of the school. 
Your better off with google

### 1/5 — Basic

*2009-09-27*

Very basic information...name, address,and phone number. But there isn't a rating to see how good the school is... Education/testing level. Is there any way to add that feature in the form of one to five stars?
