Overall a solid app but a bit glitchy at times and won't allow me to click into certain sections/tabs. Usually closing and reopening fixes this. The big issue is that PS doesn't allowing parents to CC each other on messages. For example, if a teacher messages my spouse and me, those messages are sent separately and we can't see each others responses. Additionally I can't even add non-teachers (just classroom parents) to messages I send. This makes communicating on parents square ineffective.

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.

Overall, I really like this app. I do wish that when I clicked on one of my kids, it would just go to post regarding that child right away. Instead, I have to close and reopen for this feature to work. I also wish both parents and the teacher could be involved in the same messages together to make communication even better.
