I have notifications for only one. I drive school bus and talk to their driver- they all have their passes and use them. ### 1/5 — Needs an update *2021-09-02, version 3.0.3* Time is off. Keep getting logged out so don’t get notifications. Now it’s telling me I’m unable to login, but not because the username and password are wrong…just because. And when I am logged in I get triple notifications for one rider’s scan. ### 1/5 — Notification doesn't work *2019-11-14, version 2.0.2* After the iOS 13 update notification no longer work ### 2/5 — Was working... not any more *2019-11-13, version 2.0.2* Started out ok. Not always but enough that I felt it was worth having. Now I am not getting notifications even though I have it set up to get them. Please fix. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2019-11-11, version 2.0.2* If I could give zero stars I would. You need to fix this app. It doesn’t work either on the website or on the phone. I can log in. But it’s just a white screen. Fix this app!! ### 1/5 — NEEDS AN UPDATE FOR IPhone!! *2019-11-11, version 2.0.2* Keeps logging me out and I no longer get notifications. Needs an update for iPhone. ### 2/5 — Notifications Stopped! *2019-11-08, version 2.0.2* I used to get notifications when my kids scanned on or off the bus. Now I don’t get anything, if I want to check I have to open the app. Re-login and check activity. ### 1/5 — How horrible! *2019-11-05, version 2.0.2* The kids school just started this, and I set up the account and app- and the ONLY information in 2 screens are the kids names- the “home” screen is totally blank- meaning NOTHING about ANY of their scans. It is a waste of money and time and plastic and memory and personal data!!!!! 0 stars: totally blank, nothing there, waste of everything ### 1/5 — PLEASE UPDATE! *2019-10-22, version 2.0.2* This app does not work with the latest iOS. Maybe update more than once every two years? I’m not getting ANY notifications any longer. PLEASE FIX!! ### 1/5 — Not reliable *2019-10-18, version 2.0.2* I am always notified hours after my kids are on the bus or home. It is bot accurate or reliable. I do not recommend- ### 1/5 — Needs enhancements *2019-09-25, version 2.0.2* It would be nice if the app keeps our login or do FaceTime login. It logs us out once awhile. It is very annoying! Developers, please enhance this app for your customers. Thx ### 1/5 — Horrible! *2019-09-21, version 2.0.2* This app is horrible! Not sure why the school wasted funding on this. Some days the notifications doesn’t come through and when it does it is hours later. The notification should be instant and should be able to track the bus’s location. Please fix the app so it is usable for its intended purpose. ### 1/5 — Needs serious improvement to be a real app *2019-09-17, version 2.0.2* - periodically logs out which disables notifications which is about 75% of why the app exists - no modern UI features like being able to filter alerts based on child, time of day, etc. which is the other 25%. I have no idea why our bus system is using this app at all. I have seen developers put together a better system (front and backend) in less than a day. ### 1/5 — App in need of DIRE fixing! *2019-09-12, version 2.0.2* I don’t think the developers have worked on this app since they day it was released. HORRIBLE app! It used to notify me when my child was on and off the bus. Now, it’s extremely slow, and doesn’t let you know where your child(ren) are. I also can’t add anymore students to the app. The website is just as slow and terrible. Developers NEED to fix both. Please!!! ### 1/5 — Pretty bad *2019-08-26, version 2.0.2* Logs me out and doesn’t notify me. Hasn’t been updated in years. ### 1/5 — Does not track at all! *2019-01-16, version 2.0.2* When my kids got the card, it would track where the bus will go; however, it did not. It just show up when the card is scanned. Disappointed! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Website is nonexistent and I can’t log in! *2024-05-06* Took me years to be able to finally figure out the log in, and now I can’t log in, reset my password, or track my kids! I just can’t understand why the website it sends you to has nothing to do with the app! ### 1/5 — Delay in notification by 6 minutes and scan history missing *2023-09-29* 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 ### 1/5 — Logged out. Can’t log back in! *2023-04-10* The app work fine from Aug 2022 until Mar 2023. I was logged out and now it says “unable to log in please try again”. I have reset my password several times but still can’t log into the app. I can log in via the website, but it’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 hasn’t been updated in over 3 years. No wonder this crap doesn’t work. Please fix this!!! ### 1/5 — Horrible App *2023-03-23* 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. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work *2023-03-01* 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. ### 1/5 — Glich *2022-09-29, version 3.0.3* I have deleted and installed the app 2-3 times and i keep getting 2-3 reminder of the same thing it worries me if my kid is getting on or off the bus this bug needs to get fixed asap ### 1/5 — Multiple iOS notifications for each scan *2022-09-01, version 3.0.3* We have 2 kids using Z-Pass. Each time they scan on AND off, we get 4-5 iOS notification per badge scan. App tech support has been unresponsive on this bug. ### 1/5 — wth kinda app is this *2022-03-06, version 3.0.3* cant even make a account or anything 😑😑 ### 1/5 — Horrible *2021-09-02, version 3.0.3* I can't even log into this app to begin with smh. ### 1/5 — Can’t sign in *2021-09-02, version 3.0.3* This app only worked fine for two days by the third day it logged me out and it wouldn’t let me log back in. I’m able to sign in through the website but not through the app. How disappointing! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Wonderful Idea!! But... *2016-09-14, version 2.0.2* This is the most important App I have But the Time🕗 Just Has TO BE FIXED‼️ Its a Whole HOUR AHEAD‼️ And A Settings button Would be helpful too‼️ Would also be nice to get a Notification when the kids do sign in‼️‼️ Iv been using the app for 2 years now. In the morning when the kids get on the bus to go to school they swipe their ZPASS cards Then when they arrive at school they swipe again so I know they got on the bus & made it to school safely!! At the End of the day They swipe the card again when getting On the bus then again when getting off the bus to go home‼️ This app gives me peace of mind And in this world we live in today Peace of mind is sometimes hard to come by! I love it Just Fix the time Notifications & add a settings button And IT WILL BE PERFECT!!! 😉 ‼️‼️"UPDATE"‼️‼️ I am finally receiving A Notification when my kids swipe their Z•Pass Cards when getting on the school bus!! Thank you! ### 5/5 — Works good after bug fixes *2012-06-07, version 1.1* Didn't work at first, downloaded again after a month, now works just fine, easy, simple. ### 3/5 — No scan times showing *2023-02-27* Was working okay and suddenly the scan times aren’t showing up when I open the app and the oldest logs don’t have any information on them at all. Only the notifications are showing the times, although it’s always delayed about 2-3 minutes. ### 3/5 — Time?? *2019-09-12, version 2.0.2* Is there any way of fixing the time? I’ve looked all through the settings. It shows 9:20am bus scan but it’s only 9:05 right now. It’s an hour off. I also don’t like having to constantly sign in, but no biggie. Maybe a pin or remember me option for quicker sign in. I’ll use it until next week and update my review after ☺️ Update 1 :: I received the notification of his scan(getting on the bus at school to come home) 12 minutes after he scanned. Same thing with getting off of the bus. Notification came 13 minutes after the scan. Not cool. The app however did stay signed in so I didn’t have to sign in again. ### 3/5 — Text updates *2019-04-17, version 2.0.2* I do love the app but I wish that when you sign up for text alerts that they care in on one phone number! Every sign off and on is a different text thread and by the time you realize you have 60 messages by then end of the month. Please fix! ### 3/5 — August 2018- it works *2018-08-29, version 2.0.2* Notifications are working Got a text my kids got off the bus!! (I have an iPhone) ### 3/5 — Not getting banner messages *2017-10-20, version 2.0.2* Since I upgraded my IPhone to 11.3 I’m not receiving banner messages. Now I have to go into the app to find out if she caught the bus and or got off the bus at school or home. Please update app so we receive notifications again! Otherwise I love the app. ### 3/5 — Need to enable notifications to stay logged in *2017-01-17, version 2.0.2* I dislike that I have to log in every time I open the app. I turn off notifications, but I still don't want to type my log in every time I open the app. ### 3/5 — No notifications *2016-08-24, version 2.0.2* Is there any way to get notifications so I can know when my kids got off the bus without having to open the app? ### 2/5 — Please Update!! *2023-02-22* Barely works now. No time stamps, no info showing on latest scans. PLEASE UPDATE --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
