Lionhearted

August 21, 2024

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.

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.

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!
