### 3/5 — Fix your Cam permission

*2026-01-14*

Camera access option is gone. Plz fix

**Developer response:** Hello - we've recently updated the application to address some changes in how Apple handles this. Please let us know if you continue to experience the issue by emailing info@weemarkable.ca

### 2/5 — Suggestions for changes

*2026-01-14*

I just recently started using this app, overall the interface is intuitive. I do have a suggestion; both registered parents should be able to view messages sent and received from the centre. Right now I cannot see any messages sent to my spouse. I tried sending this to the app support but it returns a bad gateway error.

**Developer response:** Hello. Thank you for your feedback. We're also open to hearing more about your experience by emailing us directly at info@weemarkable.ca

### 2/5 — Not able to download any pictures from the app.

*2025-10-10, version 4.4.1*

When I press  download icon ,It says permission required, takes me to settings. And when I go to settings, there is no such thing as a permission that I can allow and download the photos they post.  Please enable downloading photos so I can download photos of my child..

### 2/5 — Messaging and notifications

*2024-07-23*

It is truly absurd to have a messaging app that does not allow for group messages or threads with more than one parent. Instead we are stuck emailing the centre whenever there is an issue to address, and the people with access to email are not the same as the ones on Weemarkable. So the full picture is never seen by everyone involved in our child’s care. 

Notifications not coming through for updates is also a significant problem with this app.

**Developer response:** Thank you for this feedback, we're always evaluating new enhancements to our platform and will note this feedback to the team for further evaluation.

### 2/5 — Please add ability to message both parents at once

*2024-03-22*

This app contributes to the mother being the “default parent”. Please allow the centres to create a direct message that includes BOTH parents (ie., a group chat between the caregivers and parents). Otherwise it will inevitably be the mother that gets all the messages.

**Developer response:** Thank you for this feedback, we're always evaluating new enhancements to our platform and will note this feedback to the team for further evaluation.

### 2/5 — Using this for 5 yrs - Updated review

*2023-09-25*

This app doesn’t include the feature of double tap to get a period, or after choosing punctuation that it flips back to abc keyboard. This is simple app design. Please update. 

2 stars instead of 1, because they did fix the photos fitting into a screen issue

**Developer response:** Hi There, We just released a new version (4.0.1) that should address the image access issues. Can you please try updating and let us know if the issue is resolved? If so, we would love if you would reconsider your rating. Thank you!

### 3/5 — Second child

*2023-07-04, version 4.0.1*

I’m unable to add my second child

### 2/5 — Feed not loading

*2023-05-18, version 4.0.1*

An update took place about a week ago on this app and now it will not load anything. The feed just spins and nothing loads. I’m disappointed as I miss the posts and menu.

### 3/5 — Needs work

*2023-05-16, version 4.0.1*

Half of the time I don’t receive notifications when there are new posts. Sometimes updates submitted by the daycare only populate all at once later in the day. Allow the care wormers to post more than 3 photos a week! Also Very little controls available in the settings.

### 1/5 — no display

*2022-12-13, version 3.1.0*

I’ve downloaded the app but when i enter email id or just click terms and conditions tick, it goes blank red a screen. ive removed and downloaded app couple of time but same issue.

### 1/5 — App does not work

*2022-10-05, version 3.0*

With the new update, the app has stopped working. I followed the instructions of uninstalling and installing the app but it does not work. The old app, though buggy, would atleast work. Such a waste of money from YMCA upgrading to a non functional app.

### 3/5 — Update to 3.0?

*2022-10-04, version 3.0*

When giving a follower access how do you know what access you are giving them? Is the highlighted “red” access to that specific section or if you tap it “grey” gives them access?

### 1/5 — Cannot sign in

*2026-05-13*

Was constantly being kicked out of app, now when I open the app I get a red bar across the screen that you cannot get passed. Have tried deleting and redownloading app with no success.

*2025-11-14*

Sign in and nothing happens!

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2024-08-31*

Having lots of problems getting into the app. Will do face recognition then ask for passcode and it says passcode is wrong. Once back to email spot it pops up with alert saying undefined and will not let me into the app. I’ve had to get a new code twice daily to my email and set my passcode that says once I set it I can use it to get in from now on, which is never the case. Quite frustrating when I’m trying to check on them daughters progress for her first week in daycare.

**Developer response:** Hello. We're sorry to hear about this issue. We would love to try and assist as this shouldn't be occurring. Can you reach out to us at info@weemarkable.ca with a bit more information? Thanks.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2024-05-14*

The app stopped working I no longer receive anything

**Developer response:** We're really sorry to hear this and apologize for the delay in responding here. Can you please try deleting and re-installing? Feel free to email info@weemarkable.ca for support in the future.

### 1/5 — Atrocious support

*2023-09-12, version 4.2*

Haven’t been able to access my child’s photos for over a month now, my account showing as non-existent with no explanation whatsoever. Not a single email has been returned in over a month, the phone number on their website doesn’t work, and the one email I got thru to said they are out of the office and cannot apply. Embarrassing staff.

### 1/5 — WeeMarkable does not work

*2023-04-21, version 3.1.0*

Wee Markable? More like NOT Markable.🫠🤡 I couldn’t even get in.

### 1/5 — It’s no good

*2023-01-19, version 3.1.0*

At first it worked very well, now the screen just goes red after I sign in. Then I can’t see any posts, or even sign in I guess.

### 1/5 — Photos limit

*2023-01-17, version 3.1.0*

Why teachers can only upload 3 photos a week for parents? Parents would love to see more photos of their little ones. 3 is too little…. Not even 1 a day!

*2026-02-26*

The perfect way for educators and parents to stay connected, communicate needs, and get updates on your child’s progress

### 5/5 — It’s work uncorrected on iOS 26

*2025-10-21*

Photo uploading doesn’t work on iOS 26. Please fix this bug. When saving a photo to my phone, it asks to allow uploading in the settings, but there’s no options to allow photo uploads in the settings. I hope you understand me😁

Big shout out to the developers for fixing previous bugs and communication though the testflight app. Works perfectly now. Everyone update and see for yourself!

### 5/5 — A good app

*2022-10-03, version 3.0*

No problems, interface is sleek and easy to use. Opening pictures works with an easy one click download button. Filters work well to find the content you want. App works great with iOS 16. Works great with FaceID. Good work.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2021-02-23, version 1.12.0*

I’m so grateful to have such a wonderful way to connect with my daughters educators! I get photos, updates, and info pertaining to my child and her learning through out the day!

### 4/5 — Much improved with recent updates

*2023-05-01, version 4.0.1*

The app has vastly improved in the last 2 years especially with their most recent updates. I no longer have issues receiving notifications or logging in. The Face ID option is great! 
Much happier with this app being used at my child’s daycare facility!

### 4/5 — Good app

*2022-09-19, version 1.12.0*

Overall this is a good app. It has its faults but compared to a lot of daycares that don’t have anything like this and rely on a piece of paper to report on your child’s daily activities this is light years ahead. Thanks YMCA for developing this.
