Ratings and reviews

Very frustrating to use. I have my laptop open & connected to a screen so cannot mark the roll on it due to the need for cofidentiality, so must use the app. However most times I log in, it takes me to the daily updates page, with ZERO way to get to the roll. I must sign out and sign back in again (in front of a class of impatient students) & most of the time the roll appears. Student photos are often mixed up, leading to embarrassing mix-ups more than once. Have to log in every time - why!?

Hard to use, terrible UI. Extremely hard to sign in, and it logs you out randomly so you don't get notifications. News list always defaults to "most important" and wont stay as "most recent". "Click here to proceed" link in Events and payments doesn't work, so you have to go digging around the terrible UI to figure out what you are meant to proceed to. But why would the dev care - the school already paid them for this, so why would they try and make it better?

Overall works fairly well on an older Android phone. Handy to keep up to date, check and add attendance, give consent for events or payments so very good overall. However, it lost a star for some annoying persistent issues though, which are: 1. Never seemed to get the password issue resolved/set (it can't seem to remember password change) have to one code access each time 2. The app closes immediately when trying to access attachments. It works on a PC browser though so there is a work around
