Since getting a new phone a few months ago, it won't send me notifications when school sends out a text via school gateway. It is very frustrating as I have 3 children at the school and need to know any changes or important information. Most recently for a cancelled sports event! I've checked all the settings for notifications many times but I have to go on the app and check texts to see if I have missed anything. I had no issues with a previous old android. Looks like others have the same issue

I'm sorry you're having problems with notifications. If you're happy for us to do so, we can send you a test notification. Please confirm via parentsupport@schoolgateway.com if you are and advise the email address linked to School Gateway. Please also log out of the app and in again and let us know when you've done that. Many thanks

This app has massive data flaws! Beware of your phone falling into the wrong hands or even your phone being hacked! Why is there a need to have a tab with the parents' personal information, including home address? My bank doesn't display this information, so why does this app??? The pin doesn't work? There's no security in place at all....and even if there was, why display it? Edit: in response to the developer, It doesn't request the pin to log in.

UPDATE: It's possible for the school to reset PINs, so please contact your school to ask them to do this for you. If that doesn't work, they can contact our support team who can look into the matter.

Keeps crashing and this last week can't even order my child's lunches.... this app is so badly designed and not user friendly. Update: everyday for the last 2 weeks this app fails. I order 1 lunch if I'm lucky then it crashes. Some days I haven't even been able to order... uts been worse since last schedule's maintenance was done a few weeks back

UPDATE: I'm sorry you're having problems booking lunches. Could you please send further details - which screen you get to before the app crashes (screenshots help if you have them), along with the name and postcode of the school to parentsupport@schoolgateway.com. Thank you
