### 4/5 — It’s good but

*2026-08-18, version 10.138.0*

It’s a good app, however, it takes forever for messages to load.

### 3/5 — trouble…

*2026-08-13, version 10.138.0*

I love seesaw but it’s been bugging out recently!

### 4/5 — Why is it not working?

*2026-07-28, version 10.135.0*

How does it work? I just want a good deal

### 4/5 — Seesaw: Review

*2026-07-08, version 10.132.0*

This is a great app I use it really helps me. But I would like to see more features…

### 4/5 — Honestly Really Good but…

*2026-06-02, version 10.128.0*

You see, I don’t use this platform anymore as I use Teams now but my siblings have started to use this platform recently and it’s honestly really good. It gets the job done and functions pretty well. However, I recently started seeing some glitches on the platform the really annoys me and my siblings. Some of these ‘glitches’ include working getting erased from doing nothing and after drafting work most of the work sometimes doesn’t save properly. I really hope that you work hard to fix whatever is going on and please respond to this if you have seen it or fixed said problem. Thank you 🙂

### 4/5 — Needs to be able to zoom instead of buttons

*2026-05-22, version 10.127.0*

Really good exept it is alot harder to zoom in wo if you fix that i feel like seesaw would be alot more popular

### 2/5 — Bugs

*2026-05-01, version 10.122.0*

It is hard to view when typing on my phone. The auto populate doesn’t work when writing and it decides that it wants to capitalize anything that you had to backspace on. Since the view of text isn’t large enough to view you just have to send and be embarrassed of what you messed up on.

### 1/5 — No! Bad developers!! Off the AI couch!!

*2026-04-02, version 10.120.0*

This is an app for *checks notes* teachers, students and families. This is absolutely the last place I'd expect to see conversations getting sent off to an AI system for ingestion. Undo this quickly please, I'm already off to propose we stop using this at the next PTA meeting but maybe you can beat me to it.

### 3/5 — Pretty good.

*2026-03-18, version 10.118.0*

So ummm…. Seesaw is interesting I gave it a three out of 5 because like my teacher assignees us ALOT of math work on here but gives us like that small little box to do the math. Then explain it. So like yeah. 👉👈 also audio is SUPA glitchy on my ipad. I like that you can use the tools while recording but you can’t ever hear what I’m saying. 💀✨. Like I’ll say then you carry the one. And it’ll come out like tHeN wElL cArRy ThE oNe. Like holy glitch💀💝🎀 also it NeVeR saves my work I have to screenshot my work once I do it then save. It’s very annoying

### 1/5 — My profile picture

*2026-03-17, version 10.118.0*

It’s good but my profile I wish I can change it :c

### 1/5 — Laggy

*2026-03-11*

This app lags a lot. Every time I try to do my schoolwork, it lags on every way possible. I can’t zoom in or out, can’t make text bigger again, doesn’t save my work, can’t wait to stop using this app!

### 1/5 — Can upload pictures

*2026-03-06, version 10.115.1*

I have been having a really hard time uploading pictures. Every time I look for the pictures I want it never there but it is stored in my photos app. I don’t know what to do!

### 3/5 — It's nice, but needs a few improvements.

*2026-02-24, version 10.114.0*

Seesaw is defintely a great app for learning. Teachers can add comments and edit your work if you forget something, and the activites and worksheets are pretty easy to use. Well, were. For some reason none of my text boxes work, when I'm trying to edit a text box, I have to click on it multiple times for it to work now, and half of the time I just have to restart it since my keyboard never shows up. Also, every time I draw on the app, I save it, but half of the time it resets. The first time I draw something, everything saves easily. But for some reason the second time I save it reverts back to when I last saved it, which was VERY annoying. And with the saving button, half of the time it also just doesn't even work, so I have to restart everything all over again. In conclusion, Seesaw is defintely a nice learning app, but it just needs a few bug fixes, and I think Seesaw would definetly be more enjoyable for me.

### 1/5 — 𝓗𝓪𝓽𝓮

*2026-02-22, version 10.114.0*

### 1/5 — Clunky and asks for permissions it doesn’t need

*2026-08-20, version 10.138.0*

The app’s user interface is very clunky, especially when trying to view photo albums. It shows individual photo comments on the whole album and things like that. 

It also requires permission to read your entire photo library on your phone when you try to save one photo. That is completely unnecessary and suspicious. No thank you.

### 1/5 — I hate

*2026-08-14, version 10.138.0*

I have so many things I have to do in my day.

### 1/5 — TERRIBLE🥀

*2026-07-03, version 10.132.0*

Just terrible I’m a pupil that used this app it’s honestly just annoying stupid and random things flood our messages useless app honestly good luck useing this…

### 1/5 — I used it hated it

*2026-06-12, version 10.129.0*

So someone hacked me and started using profanity on it then I couldn’t access it at all really annoying and I kept getting kicked off the app

### 1/5 — horrible

*2026-05-28, version 10.128.0*

one of the worst apps, please just why can't you use google classroom it saves and it runs smooth. Don't blame me when your work gets deleated right after you finished it.

### 1/5 — My god the ux

*2026-05-20, version 10.126.0*

Trying to work out this app to submit your kids homework is about as fun as locking your bits in a vice 

Please hire someone to review the user experience, it shouldn’t be this hard to
A) print assigned homework and
b) upload completed homework

### 1/5 — TERRIBLE

*2026-04-29, version 10.122.0*

I COULDNT EVEN DOWN LOAD IT!

### 1/5 — Does not work on iPad

*2026-04-19, version 10.122.0*

Always gets the error “Could not load seesaw appLoadFailedWebViewStatusDescription”

### 1/5 — Hate

*2026-04-17, version 10.122.0*

Hate it, totally hate it

### 1/5 — Stop spamming me

*2026-04-06, version 10.120.0*

Seesaw keep spamming me with survey emails and the unsubscribe link doesn’t work. I’m marking them all as spam. But don’t sign up unless you want spam

*2026-07-19, version 10.134.0*

Plz put the old logo back cause I liked that one very much and can you make it free cause I want to make multiple slides but I can’t (I’m just a pretend teacher I’m still a kid but I have a bigger IQ than others and I don’t wanna pay cause I don’t got no money)

Lovely I can see what is going on and I love it .ps. recommend it

### 5/5 — It’s verry hard to….

*2026-02-04, version 10.111.0*

It’s very hard to type the tpstuff you add on and then edit it. I’m a student in using this app and it’s a problem everybody in my class hates. We can’t edit our texts on the seesaw activity and if we get something wrong ( eg. Spelling) we weather have to delete our texts and retype it or just keep on removing our text bit to but until we reach the button where the thing we have to edit it. There no autocorrect and please make a thing to keep the side stuff away because sometimes our work is there and we can’t read it. Thank you seesaw!

### 5/5 — Seesaw is amazing!
