Ratings and reviews

I wasn't comfortable putting my credit card info in to begin with, but my child's teacher insisted we use the app, so I did.Now the app is saying the account doesn't exist and even if they fix it and give him the account, I'm not okay with it, because there are plenty on communication apps my children use for school that don't require me to pay a damn thing or give out my credit card information, which leads me to believe that other ways to verify to the satisfaction of the federal law.

While the app itself is great, after you reach the age it deems not a child, it will display a pop up, and eventually not allow you to access your bands until you download the band app.

I have tried multiple times to get this installed on my daughter's phone, so that she can talk to her teammates. It hasn't worked yet, even after I I was charged 50 cents 2 different times, trying to get this fixed. Needs some work!
