Wenn ich die App öffne, erhalte ich dann einen Schwall Nachrichten. Dies ist nicht sinnvoll - da hier teilweise auch kurzfristig reagiert werden soll - und zudem wider der Logik einer Benachrichtigung (diese sollte nicht „abgeholt“ werfen müssen). ### 3/5 — Verbesserungsbedürftig *2025-05-26, version 10.1.1* Von der Idee her top. Die Umsetzung an sich auch. Aber die technische Umsetzung, da hapert es. Alle 2 Tage werde ich spätestens ausgeloggt. Ganz oft komme ich auch gar nicht erst zu den Nachrichten. Ich kann nichts öffnen. Oder die App hängt sich auf und ich muss erstmal das IPhone neu starten. ### 3/5 — Gut aber unzuverlässig *2025-04-01, version 10.1.0* Die App ist schon ganz gut aber leider funktioniert die Pushbenachrichtigung nicht zuverlässig. Seit Anfang 2025 bekomme ich keine Benachrichtigungen mehr. Weiterhin muss ich mich hin und wieder neu einloggen. Es wäre sehr hilfreich wenn das behoben werden könnte. ### 1/5 — logged out constantly *2025-02-01* update feb 1 still logged out perhaps the issue is with your new release and qa process. it seems you are releasing new logout regressions with each update . this can perhaps be addressed by testing every new release for this behavior and considering it a showstopper. Please consider this as a process improvement suggestion with huge user value. ps be advised your previous support suggestion did not resolve the issue previous review: can you please fix your app finally? i have to login everytime i open the app since years . i have troubleshooted and looked if it is a user error. it is not . i checked all settings and reinstalled many times but nothing fixes it. i am using an iphone 15 which works with other apps. so please just fix the bug. logging users out constantly is not acceptable. **Developer response:** Hello, we are sorry that you did not have a good experience with our application. Please feel free to contact our support team at: https://foxeducation.com/de/foxeducation/support/ . We are happy to help! ### 1/5 — Fehler Notifications und Login *2025-01-09, version 9.9.1* grundlegend funktioniert die App gut, aber es gibt zwei Fehler: 1. Wenn ich eine Nachricht von einem Lehrer bekomme, dann bekomme ich eine Benachrichtigung. Ich antworte dann auf die Nachricht. Wenn der Lehrer mir wieder antwortet, gibt es keine Benachrichtigungen. Dadurch ist eine Kommunikation mit den Lehrern fast unmöglich. 2. Man muss sich sehr oft in der App wieder neu einloggen. Das nervt schon seit Monaten. Leider funktioniert das automatische Ausfüllen mit einem Passwort Manager auf iOS Geräten auch nicht beziehungsweise nur teilweise. Wenn ich das Feld E-Mail anklicke, wird mir kein Passwort für ein angeboten. Wenn ich das Passwort anklicke, dann kann ich das Feld automatisch ausfüllen. Wenn ich danach wieder in das Feld ihm automatisch ausfüllen lassen. Für den Rest der App, ein großes Lob, vieles funktioniert gut und wird immer besser. Da vergebe ich auch viel mehr Sterne… ### 1/5 — logged out constantly *2024-11-20* can you please fix your app finally? i have to login everytime i open the app since years . i have troubleshooted and looked if it is a user error. it is not . i checked all settings and reinstalled many times but nothing fixes it. i am using an iphone 15 which works with other apps. so please just fix the bug. logging users out constantly is not acceptable. **Developer response:** Hello, we are sorry that you did not have a good experience with our application. Please feel free to contact our support team at: https://foxeducation.com/de/foxeducation/support/ . We are happy to help! ### 1/5 — messages dissappearing *2024-09-23* this app managed to delete important messages from me to a teacher and still logs me out constantly even after troubleshooting with support nothing is resolved. if this app is rated 4.6 i seriously question if real people are rating this. **Developer response:** Hello, we are sorry that you did not have a good experience with our application. Please feel free to contact our support team at: https://foxeducation.com/de/foxeducation/support/ . We are happy to help! ### 4/5 — Anmeldedaten gehen verloren *2024-09-13, version 9.7.0* Die Anmeldedaten müssen beim Starten der App oft neu eingegeben werden. Dabei kommt kurz zuvor eine Push-Nachricht erfolgreich an, die App scheint also erfolgreich mit dem Account verknüpft zu sein. ### 3/5 — Unzuverlässig *2024-07-03, version 9.6.0* Eigentlich eine tolle und vielseitige App aber dadurch, dass sich die App ständig ausloggt und man so nie weiß, ob man alle Nachrichten bekommt, leider unbrauchbar…. ### 4/5 — Super App aber .. *2024-07-01, version 9.5.1* An für sich super App. Daumen hoch ! Das einzige wo ich auch einen Stern abziehe ist, sobald man eine neue Nachricht bekommt, wird man ausgeloggt. Das ist was nervig. Hat man keine neue Benachrichtigung bleibt man eingeloggt. Das sollte behoben werden. ## Frequently asked questions about SchoolFox ### What does SchoolFox do?
