Fixed bug: username is now case-insensitive on login screen

User reviews

Website is nonexistent and I canโ€™t log in!

Took me years to be able to finally figure out the log in, and now I canโ€™t log in, reset my password, or track my kids!
I just canโ€™t understand why the website it sends you to has nothing to do with the app!

Delay in notification by 6 minutes and scan history missing

Not real time alerts delay by 3 to 6 minutes and scan history missing at least a month or week data to be available. Last year the app worked well but this year it is having issues

Logged out. Canโ€™t log back in!

The app work fine from Aug 2022 until Mar 2023. I was logged out and now it says โ€œunable to log in please try againโ€. I have reset my password several times but still canโ€™t log into the app. I can log in via the website, but itโ€™s not worth having to refresh your browser to see if your child has scanned on or off the bus. I just realized that the app hasnโ€™t been updated in over 3 years. No wonder this crap doesnโ€™t work. Please fix this!!!

Horrible App

The app has worked great so far, but after the new year holidays I never know what time my child scanned the card onto or leaving the bus.
Also, the app has logged me out and I'm able to go to a separate phone and log in just fine as well as logging in via the website.
This issue needs to be fixed ASAP, this is a big safety issue.

Doesnโ€™t Work

Recently it has been sending me notifications 10+ minutes after a scan, if at all, and it no longer shows the scan time in the app.

FAQ

What does Z Pass+ do?

Z Pass+ provides parents with real-time notifications via email or text message when their child boards or alights the school bus. It leverages the Z Pass solution to give parents immediate information about their child's bus ride, offering peace of mind and reducing the need to call schools.

How does Z Pass+ work?

Students use Z Pass cards when boarding or exiting the bus. This information is then used by the Z Pass+ system to send instant notifications to parents. Parents can log in to a secure website to set up their preferred notification methods (email or cell phone text message).

Is Z Pass+ free to use?

Based on the provided information, the app is free to use. There are no mentions of subscription fees or in-app purchases.

What are the benefits of using Z Pass+?

The primary benefit is increased peace of mind for parents, knowing their child's location and timing on the school bus. It also helps reduce the number of calls parents make to schools seeking information about their student's bus ride.

Do students or bus drivers need to do anything differently?

No, students already use Z Pass cards when boarding or exiting the bus, and bus drivers do not need to take any additional action. The system works seamlessly with the existing Z Pass solution.
