This app is so clunky and slow to use on a phone. It being the preferred way to communicate with my child's teacher makes it a very frustrating experience. It's slow to load, slow to respond to the selection to reply to a message, won't attach media (photos, etc). I also can't use the back button to get out of the app. Honestly I wish our school district would use another method. Seesaw is awful.

Update: I just updated the app and I still am unable to use the back button with the app. I initially loved the app. It's a great way to communicate with my son's teacher. However, I am unable to use the back button on my device anymore, I agree with others about being able to add more than one picture, and can you put teacher image announcements back in the main feed as well that was helpful for me to keep track of important information without searching for it in messages.

So difficult to find messages on this platform. Would rather school went back to just using emails, was much easier. Would be better to arrange the messages by topic, rather than by who sent the message. Also having a calendar view to see the events that have been planned would be very beneficial. Only using this app now as it's our schools only method of communication now.
