Been a user since i started high school in 2024, and honestly it was confusing at first, but ive gotten the hang of it! definitely a lifesaver with due dates and such. Formatting on phone is a little bit difficult to navigate, but on laptop its easy! It allows stuff to be graded immediately which im happy about because i used to have to wait for teachers to grade until i moved schools. Love this app! (it also lets me us google even tho my dad doesn't allow it😋!!)

It's so annoying. Tells me I have a notification about the course, enter the app... No notifications. Get an email about notification, takes me to the app... No notification. But then I have to manually go through the app to find out something has changed. If you show me a notification and I click it, it shouldn't just open the app it should take me to the topic it's notifying me about!

The app can be good to access files on your phone and see your coursework grades when they come out, but you cannot see any feedback comments as you would on a PC or laptop. This is unfortunate as the majority of my feedback has come through comments. Furthermore, any edit comments added to submission files, e.g., pdfs, post-submission are not accessible for viewing as they are on other devices,m despite the fact you can see where has been highlighted for further feedback. Please rectify this.
