Disappointing
Rage inducing ap, stupid set up, dumb navigation, forever crashing, hate it with a passion. Schools should avoid!!!
Notifications do not work
Zero notifications
Disappointing
Stupid name for a school ap, difficult to navigate, why hide menu in corner? Hate it when we are requested to change to new ap only got it to be worse then the older ap.
Response from developer
A new version was published this week, which corrects a number of common issues, particularly the menu system. Are you still having any problems? Please feel free to contact us via simon@hordernit.com.au for direct support. If the experience has improved would you consider revising your review?
So bad
This app does not display the pages at all. I have entered the school code and the appIdentified the school. After that, they are nothing obvious. it just a white screen.
Additional function
Just wondering if this is possible-May I suggest that this app be looked into and additional function may be considered and added in order to let user upload additional info i.e. medical certificate when notifying school absence. The process I take when notifying absence is thru PAM mobile (which can be challenging when you are on the road) then log in again in PC to upload Medical certificate - which I find it time consuming. Not sure if the reason of not having this functionality (in relation to document uploading) is due to privacy. It would be good and much appreciated if this app usage specially thru mobile be improved to alleviate the stress of doing a couple of process when notifying absence.

Would give zero stars if possible
School mandates this. Has not been working for months. Clumsy interface, not user friendly at all. I recommend the developers delete the entire thing and start again.
Poor user experience
Has to be one of the worst school apps I’ve ever seen. In this day and age it’s not overly difficult to build a clean product UI with a good customer experience. I’d suggest that should be the next activity to upgrade the functionality.
App hacked
App hacked and date stolen. School had to stop using for a period of time.
Why does this happen?! =YourGoofballSienna1827
My mom downloaded the app on my phone for school and when I went on the app,it just showed some maintenance error and everytime I press exit,it keeps repeating and I can’t even use the app
PLS FIX THISSSS,I NEED THIS FOR SCHOOL!!!
PLS FIX THISSSS,I NEED THIS FOR SCHOOL!!!
Unreliable
This application has not been working for months and has impacted so many schools because of IT failures. Starting term soon and the issue is still not resolved and we still cannot access this application.
The outage
I have been trying to use Simon on my phone but it still doesn’t work even though it said to wait till November 10th, it is jaunt and I’m still waiting and there has been other reviews about but Simon just doesn’t care
Awful
Simon is not functional. The claim the app would be back online by Nov 10th was inaccurate, today is the 26th of Nov. No communication, poor interface, not particularly user friendly and unreliable on a good day, when the app actually does open. Any schools using Simon need to use their heads, stop trying to cost cut and swap to Compass. Schools, staff and parents do not need the lack of communication or functionality that Simon provides. Just use the already well established Compass, seriously- you get what you pay for, clearly.

Unreliable
Unable to use app or use Simon on the web outside of the school network. This has been going on for weeks with no communication from Simon about when this will be fixed. The app “system maintenance” notice still says access will resume from the 10th of November, it’s 20th of November as I write this review and access has not resumed for parents, students or teachers. If we can’t use it, then perhaps an update could be provided? To be honest, even when it is working, it’s not a great app, falls well short of the user friendly interface of apps like Compass.

Doesn’t work
App displays a System Maintenance error message for the last 3 weeks.
Always having outages
The current outage has been going for 3 days straight, and it’s getting pretty annoying that I. An’t check my own classes. There is also multiple issues with the app that people would’ve reported, but guess what.. none of them are fixed! Don’t recommend this for schools
Good
Great but the app won’t let me access home even after I did everything and it only started this a few days ago
Doesn’t work
Rarely works. Sort your App out.
Nothing like normal simon
Nothing like normal simon has les than a third of the schools that use simon absolutely usless
So slow
This app is so slow u can’t even open it
Rubbish APP
Sends a verification code then does nothing. Doesn’t load. Cant see a thing.
