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!

Recently, I have been having a strange issue with this app regarding notifications. Very suddenly, I am unable to receive notifications from the app, only via email and text. No matter how many times I go into settings and try to enable app notifications, it turns off by itself. I thought maybe something was wrong with my permissions settings on my phone, but everything is enabled there. I really want this issue resolved as I much prefer push notifications.

Clicking on notifications doesn't take you to the new message/post. Instead you end up going to the message/post you were previously looking at. There is no way to save a draft of a message. You cannot search through previous messages. When moving away from a draft before sending it, it doesn't prompt you that you're about to lose it either. App sporadically sends you message notifications. Sometimes people write to you and you aren't notified.
