About this app

Classroom makes it easy for learners and instructors to connect—inside and outside of schools. Classroom saves time and paper, and makes it easy to create classes, distribute assignments, communicate, and stay organized.

There are many benefits to using Classroom:
• Easy to set up – Teachers can add students directly or share a code with their class to join. It takes just minutes to set up.
• Saves time – The simple, paperless assignment workflow allows teachers to create, review and mark assignments quickly, all in one place.
• Improves organization – Students can see all of their assignments on an assignments page, and all class materials (e.g., documents, photos, and videos) are automatically filed into folders in Google Drive.
• Enhances communication – Classroom allows teachers to send announcements and start class discussions instantly. Students can share resources with each other or provide answers to questions on the stream.
• Secure – Like the rest of Google Workspace for Education services, Classroom contains no ads, never uses your content or student data for advertising purposes.

Ratings and reviews

Best I've seen but not great. You can't use a GIF as your background. There is lots of information that states GIF's can be used for Classroom customization, but this has been consistently inaccurate for me. Next, although you can get an average grade, but if you are teaching multiple subjects, there is no way to distinguish, for example, a Math grade from a Social Studies grade average. You can upload videos and other tools as well as assignments. Great compatibility with various platforms.

Absolutely awful app. almost never works. I have to use it for school and am constantly struggling to get work in because the APP WILL NOT WORK. edit #2: it just gets worse. randomly unsumbits my stuff. I did a Google form, got my score, then went to sleep. When I woke up it was missing. Hey I've got a revolutionary idea-google why dont you stop writing off bad reviews as students who don't want to do their work. Fix it. Do your job.

There is constant crashing and I cant do the work teachers give me. I also am having issues with opening assignments when I can finally get past the "getting into the app" part. When I tap on the assignment, an error pops up either saying "this file is not available" or "failed to open, try again later". This is probably one of the worst apps for schooling I have ever been on and I'm sure many more people agree
