Ratings and reviews

The UI isn't great, not very intuitive, and feels all over the place. Our previous nursery's app looked a bit dated but nailed reporting, private child photos, meal and nappy tracking, medical forms, and app notifications. This current app is so poor it almost puts us off checking our own child's progress and well-being.

This app is clunky and logs me out for no apparent reason. Among other annoying features are that it emails me to say I have a message but doesn't just include the message in the email. All in all it's pretty poor and I would not use it if the nursery didn't insist on it.

Quite good once on the app although layout is not very intuitive. Big issue with lack of push notifications in spite of ensuring they're all turned on which entirely defeats the object for me as I forget to check and miss updates. Clearly I'm not the only one with this problem judging by the other reviews so it's a shame the developers haven't bothered to sort it out given it was mentioned over a year ago. Also would be good to download the photos as our old nursery app was able to do.
