The students really enjoy it. They like customizing their avatar. They like the Island learning games. I like there is positive reinforcements as well as a way to apply consequences in a way that the students and the parents can track the behavior. We have a treasure box the kids can cash in their points to purchase trinkets from. I also like that I can have it on my phone and computer. another good feature is other staff can all join and apply points to the students. It is a very useful tool.

Slow, buggy, expensive, does some things well. The app takes an age to load, over a minute sometimes, it's buggy I've just loaded the app, waited to start and the logo was the stuck over the app after loading. I get a notification, which keeps repeating every time I start the app for a post by a teacher 8 days ago which I've opened. You want people to buy the app, make it more affordable AND make it actually work.

Great for teachers, not so much for parents. I'm glad my kids can interact with their teachers, and I'm glad we can, too... But the app definitely has its limitations. It doesn't clear notifications (even when they've been checked). It's constantly trying to get me to purchase features (like nonstop) even though we only use it for their teachers' sakes. It's constantly sending random notifications and there's no way to turn them off (things that have nothing to do with our classrooms).

I really enjoy using this app to communicate with my child's teacher and school. Two things I'd like to suggest: 1, adding a search bar. My child's school/teachers send several messages a week, it's so time consuming to try to find an older message without flipping through 30 first. If it's from more than a week ago, forget about it lol. 2, having a way to sync events and dates straight into your calendar. Overall, I enjoy it though.

Overall I love it, I've had it for multiple years at this point. The only downside is that so many more features USED to be available for FREE! Now the plus version is being pushed very hard, too much in my opinion. For ex.. I used to be able to give at home points almost everyday, even if it was a cap of 2 or 3, now you can't at all. You could see as far back in activity now you can't. I just can't believe so many awesome features were taken away!
