Die MWS App bringt das Schulportal der Maria Ward Schule Mainz auf Smartphone und Tablet. Stundenplan, Vertretungen, Termine und Mitteilungen der Schule sind immer auf dem aktuellen Stand. Schülerinnen und Schüler sehen ihren Stundenplan, die Vertretungen, die Schul-, Klassenarbeits- und Kursarbeitstermine, ihre Fehlzeiten und die Liste der Lehrkräfte. Sie chatten mit Klasse und Lehrkräften, finden Material und geben Aufgaben in der Lernumgebung ab, lesen die Mitteilungen der Schule, nehmen an Videokonferenzen teil und haben ihren Schülerausweis digital dabei. Eltern erhalten Elternbriefe digital und bestätigen sie direkt in der App, sehen Stundenplan und Vertretungen ihres Kindes, behalten die Fehlzeiten im Blick, kennen alle Termine der Schule und chatten mit Lehrkräften. Lehrkräfte führen Klassen- und Kursbuch, erfassen Fehlzeiten, chatten mit Klassen, Kursen und Kollegium, verschicken Mitteilungen und Elternbriefe und stellen Material in der Lernumgebung bereit. Bei Vertretungen, Stundenplanänderungen, neuen Chatnachrichten, Elternbriefen und neuem Material in der Lernumgebung kommt eine Push-Benachrichtigung. Jede Art lässt sich in den Einstellungen einzeln abschalten. Mehrere Konten, etwa für Geschwisterkinder, lassen sich in einer App nutzen. Dateien und Fotos können direkt aus anderen Apps ins Portal geteilt werden, und es gibt ein helles und ein dunkles Design. Die Anmeldung erfolgt mit den Zugangsdaten des Schulportals. Die App ist nur für Schülerinnen und Schüler, Eltern und Lehrkräfte der Maria Ward Schule Mainz nutzbar.

The call

The clearest difference is ads: MWS App at none against Applause's shown. MWS App also leads on device support (3 vs 1). Applause's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
