But soon, the texts started to glitch when you used to zoom in our out, but really really badly, to the point when we used to write out homework or when we had our tests, and this glitch happened your basically screwed. This problem had been for ages but a worse thing now is that the texts have started to glitch when you move them which is super annoying. And when you open the app again, it doesn’t fix like the last glitch. Honestly, back then, without these glitches, the app was actually super good, now it has become irritating, I spend more time trying to fix these glitches rather doing my work? Additionally, if I need to add a work, why does it turn blurry, it just makes my work look less pleasing to look at. Anyway, these glitches haven’t been fixed for ages, so I don’t think it would be fixed anytime soon, but for a new school thinking about downloading this, I would if these glitches didn’t exist, but for now, I wouldn’t torture kids with this app… ### 3/5 — It never saves your work *2026-04-19, version 8.4.1* Mid ### 4/5 — I use this in school and I would like to add some things *2026-03-25, version 8.4.0* I use this app in school and its ok but sometimes my text box’s just disappear. like one time we were do RE and I did all my work then my text boxes were gone and we had like two minutes left before the end.and then I had to rush it all over and one time my bff did a whole character description and it all disappeared at the end of the lesson so I would like these things to be fixed but it still fun too use thx for reading . ### 3/5 — This app was amazing but *2026-03-25, version 8.4.0* This app WAS amazing but now I can’t make make a teacher account for some reason ### 2/5 — Often crashes *2026-01-20, version 8.3.1* The iPad version often crashes due to the limited RAM on most iPads, and does not auto save your progress when marking something on a file ### 1/5 — d'la chnoute *2026-01-16, version 8.3.1* je suis pu capable d'écrire avec l'onglet text pour aucune raison.

So hard to use, trying to do my work on here and my text just leaves the screen, the writing and highlighting tools arent great, the text box is awful and needs to be fixed, it wont go the bottom of the page, so theres just a whole 1/8 of the page that i just cannot write on, which is especially hard when i need to be precise on where i put my writing. I’ll accidentally press the home button the go back on to the app, and it literally just refreshes the whole app, and sometimes my work wont even save. So, ive got some solutions, 1. Fix the problems, fix the bugs and make it user friendly, 2. Take the app down so no one else can suffer ### 1/5 — Pain d'epices *2026-06-11, version 8.4.3* Hola ### 1/5 — Worst app *2026-06-09, version 8.4.3* The school is so dumb they chose a app as low as their iq and ima goon on my teachers cuz of this. ### 1/5 — school *2026-04-13, version 8.4.1* showbie never works bruh ### 1/5 — Mr Thomas stop telling me to use showbie *2026-03-11, version 8.3.1* I don’t like it ### 1/5 — I hate school *2026-02-16, version 8.3.1* I skipped school because i was fake sick ### 1/5 — G *2026-01-29, version 8.3.1* When I downloaded this app my sister want to goon ### 1/5 — HORRIBLE *2026-01-18, version 8.3.1* So garbage ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-03-19* This is amazing, I use it from my school and I can get things done really easily!! if I were you, I would download this app, you can even ask your teacher to download it as well and then you can put all your work on there!!!!!

All of a sudden they see a massive hole that they could not see the bottom of. So they threw a pebble down the hole to see how deep it was. They listened. They didn’t hear anything. Then they looked over and saw a 2 ton anvil so they lifted it over to the hole and dropped it. They were listening but still didn’t here a sound. Suddenly a goat came running up and just jumped straight down the hole. Not long after a farmer came up to them and said “have you seen my goat” and one of the men said “you wouldn’t believe me if I told you but it just came running up and jumped straight down this never ending hole. The farmer then said “that’s impossible it was attached to an anvil” THE END ### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing *2025-04-26, version 7.9.3* I use this at school and there are no bugs it’s easy to login and use and most of all it’s just really easy to use ### 5/5 — Stop banging me *2024-11-14, version 7.8.9* I just downloaded this app for school 10 mins later 10 big black men came to the toilets to bang me after some guy named Asian Jeff saved my life and sang Fein would recomend ### 5/5 — Muy buena *2024-09-24, version 7.8.4* Es una aplicación para usar en el colegio.
