Ratings and reviews

This app can be great to communicate with teachers, but the severe lack of characters allowed makes it very annoying. Instead of one message, they need sometimes up to 5, just to communicate. I don't mind one alert, but constant dinging just to get all the pieces across and not in the correct order, so you're trying to figure out what sentences go together; makes this more of a hassle than a help.

My carrier dropped support for this over SMS, but it still works in the app... except, for NEW classes, if you subscribe from an SMS invite, it doesn't appear in the app! You have to get the class code so you can add it manually, and that is BONKERS. Either way, (unlike every decent app,) you can't drag the notification taller to read more of the message within the notification, you have to open the app every time to see more than the first few words of it. Needlessly frustrating!!!!

The one thing I have to say is when you post a message to let's say your whole class, you are limited to how long the message is. This is very inconvenient. Many times I need to send a longer message with pertinent details, it would be nice if Remind could make that unlimited like when you message and individual parent. I'm not sure why individual message are unlimited, and group messages are limited.
