Ratings and reviews

Notifications are horrible in this app. I constantly get "a new annotation has been made to your submission document" but when you click it it doesnt bring you anywhere. Also some notifications in the app stay bold (as if they are not read yet) even though I refreshed and restarted the app. Lastly, if your assignment is graded, it should show IN THE NOTIFICATION! that would be very usefull, just like if you get a message from whatsapp, you can see it without opening the app.

Works better on the computer. Sometimes with the app, the calendar won't load at all, it's just a blank page. I'll close and restart and it continues. I checked for updates, there aren't any. Honestly, too, I think developing a notification system would be a good idea, notifying students when assignments are added or due. EDIT: This review is over a year old and the calendar issue is still a regular thing.

Whilst it's wonderful to have, the app doesn't remember the school you choose and can't survive a change in orientation. The result being is that I have to log back in anytime I change a view (eg watch a video as opposed to reading). After using it for a little while, the web page seems more durable than the app.
