Useless. Get a notification in the top of my screen but whenever I log into the app the homepage is blank. Every menu option I select is also blank. There is literally nothing but blank screens so can't even use it. I keep having to go to the webpage which is annoying Edit to respond to developer. Still not working. Even website version has many issues, can't access second child's profile to upload homework or view dates for upcoming events. Why cant they just send notes home like they used to

Hi, we're sorry about the poor experience. We are aware of some key issues that surfaced after a recent release, causing the app to be far below the expectations we have for it. We've been hard at work resolving these so it'd be valuable to hear if your experience has improved? Please contact support@fireflylearning.com if not, thank you.

Edited:16/10/22, I simply don't understand why this app is so poor. All I want to see is what homework is set, yet I first need to wait +30 seconds for it to refresh (if I'm lucky). Once it's refreshed it sometimes allows me to open a tab and other times it just restarts. Homework attachments don't always open. It's just a painful experience for what should be a simple list.

Worst app I've ever used. Worked OK a couple of times, now crashes every time I try to start it - even after reinstalling. Have no way of keeping track of my teenage son's homework, other than trusting him to tell me where he's up to - hence overdue tasks and stress aplenty. Show my Homework isn't perfect either, but at least you can actually use it. This is terrible.
