Ratings and reviews

It works most of the time, but occasionally, it seems to send too many notifications, or links from the notifications to the app don't seem to work. Also would really approving a dark mode. Layout and functionality overall is good, but it just needs a lot more polishing.

I ABHOR using this "app"! This is the WORST POSSIBLE APP THAT HAD EVER BEEN DEVELOPED UNDER THE SUN. 1) Once you click any notification, it will disappear forever even if you starred it, or marked it as unread. 2) There's no F'ing way to organize or group the messages or notifications received. They have given a number of Legends to identify the type of notification! I hope the developer organisation goes bankrupt and some other company takes them over and makes a better app.

finicky app. School also maybe has trouble keeping things simple on it or using it effectively. It just isn't very intuitive and there are too many places to navigate imo.
