Wonderful tool for communication with school. The latest version has a weird behavior when writing a message. The message is deleted if the phone screen changes from portrait into landscape during typing. The app should lock into portrait mode only if this is going to happen. Or offer the option to save as draft. I've lost at least three messages this past week because of this. And I'm sure that was not the case before

I feel the app could make improvements on accessibility and ease of use. When clicking on posts or attachments. It stays loading, and nothing ever pops up. It's frustrating to manage. Any important information gets emailed directly to me, but nothing ever shows on the app. When logged in, I can see my profile and who my child is. But when trying to access posts made from teachers, it shows a child that is not mine and therefore denies me access. I've used class dojo for years with no problems.

this app is fine. PLEASE make a way for Android users to sync entire calendars instead of single events. Or, please provide a link for a webcal link. The calendar portion is what I need and right now it is completely useless. UPDATE 10/25: for Android users, I find this app terrible. There is no good or easy way to zoom on images or pdf documents so I can actually read what they say. PLEASE fix this.

Has the ability to be good but far from it. As a teacher, it's very confusing to use. Ways to make a Post and create messages to class are in completely different places. Only admin has access to see if messages were read but teachers don't. Dashboard says that 90% of our school is receiving posts, but most of the parents aren't getting them. When teacher gets notification they have a message, it's difficult to find it in the list. The color choices are awful. But great edit tools!

I have multiple kids it's hard to sift through and find messages. You literally have to scroll and scroll and scroll to find what you're looking for. Also, it's hard to zoom in on things. I personally would prefer to just email. Email is so much easier you can organize it into folders mark important ones it automatically adds things to your calendar, it's in the order in which it's received and most importantly you can search for things! I can't stand parent square!

Never works for media. I can't believe how much trouble this app has given me. I love to post videos and pictures throughout the week to show my students' parents and it always says unable to attach media. I emailed the company and reached out for support, it took them about 3 weeks to finally have their programmers " fix" what was wrong but it still didn't work. If you use it on your desktop, it seems to work better. Seesaw and ClassDojo were so much more functional as far as sharing media.
