SLOW

This app is stupid because it’s slow. Ok🤬 ps it happened 1000 times’’ 50l internal error haha’’ so INPROVE and shut up

It was good to use, but my name was wrong and wasnt changed the whole year

My name is Lilah, and every other kid got their correct name, but my name was entered as Lilac and never changed, my main issue with this is that nobody knew anything was off, or if they did they didnt bother to change it, and also, h and c arent that close to eachother! Id understand the getting my name wrong if it was lilay or something like that, but it honestly felt odd, even if it was autocorrect, they didn’t change it back!
So let me say one thing, if you have a teacher who would write your name wrong, be sure to tell them when its wrong and ask them to change it, don’t stay silent to the teachers like I did.
