Ratings and reviews

Absolutely terrible. I have a login and have checked grades in the past. Says permission denied. I asked for a password reset and it never sends one. I try to get username and email confirmation and that doesn't work, not to mention that when you're choosing your birthday you have to scroll by month starting with the current date so if you're 40 years old my swiping 480 times. You cannot manually enter a birthday. No help button or any way to contact anyone for help.

App does not show ungraded assignments, fewer assignment grades than the website and some assignment grades shown on the app may be different that what is shown on the website. The contents of the "News" tab is also different than the tab on the website. It appears the app gets its info from a different and separate source file than the website. The website portal has problems of its own, but it is still miles ahead of this app.

The app provides minimal information at best. After loggining in, the student/parent will automatically see the list of classes and the overall grade. However, when he or she clicks on the blue class link, the list of assignments and the grades for each one is not viewable. Lets say, the student has a D or F, this means that student will not log into the browser version of Focus to find out why their grade is low, they will just harass their teacher. "Why you gave me an F?" This is a problem.
