Ratings and reviews

Tried to have a mentor session and it just wouldn't open the video today. Tried to chat message her instead, and she never got it. 30 min wasted trying to get this to work when I should be talking to my student about her future. Another week lost. Please don't put updates that break things more. Also, please add automatic capitalization for the first letter of each sentence when typing. This is a very basic need.

Every time you log in, it reminds you of past and future sessions, regardless of if you have already logged them or how many times you select "already logged". So, each and every time you open the app you have 1 or 2 notifications you need to waive off before you can start being productive. Also, please fix the Google calendar bug. It's already installed on my phone but the notification to sync creates an endless loop to "install" it.

Buggy. Little things like: -you click yes to add it to the calendar, and it tells you to please install Google calendar (which you have installed, use daily, and can clearly see when it opens up the Playstore window for Google cal). -you want to log a note, and it doesn't capitalize the first letter of each sentence. -promptly kills your virtual session at the end of the 30min. No warning, or chance to extend. Who chats for exactly 30 minutes and 0 seconds?
