Underwhelmed
I have been allowed to use seesaw and/or dojo the entire time I have taught in my district. We are now required to use ParentSquare district wide and not allowed to use any other platform, but elementary needs a more user-friendly app to share pictures and videos with parents of young students use anything else. I could see the benefits of secondary. I have several coworkers in elementary that simply stopped sharing pictures and videos with parents because it’s too time-consuming or doesn’t well.

worse app ever designed
this app is so infuriatingly awful, I should be relieved that it randomly deactivated my account and has no functional method for resetting a password (it has a rest button you can click, but no matter how many times you change the password, nothing happens). unfortunately, my kids school forces parents to use it for communication, which presumably is to alienate and exclude people who can’t afford smart phones or have the leisure time to endlessly troubleshoot. can’t wait for this company to go out of business so the school will just go back to email ffs

So good
This is so amazing I used to not have this and I was never warned about my kids not having school or not. Now I know if my kids have school or not if they have a test and anything special this is so good. It’s the best app ever for school schools.

Improvements needed
Contact with teachers and the school is a great thing to have. It’s less great when all the “notifications” (messages from teachers, etc.) are just dumped together with no idea to which student they might pertain.
Changing my contact info was difficult and required the school to help. Info imported from another system was butchered.
Definitely more bugs to fix and UI to clean up, but it could be worse.

I am being forced to use this for my team communication and it doesn’t have the features I currently have on my other form of parent athlete communication.

Locked out of my account / Login issue
I’ve been using this app regularly, but it suddenly logged me out. Now when I try to log back in, it says "incorrect password or email." Clicking "Forgot Password" doesn't work either—I get no reset code via email or phone text. Reinstalling the app and restarting my phone didn't help, and contacting the school didn't resolve it since it seems to be a technical app issue. Please fix this bug so parents can access their accounts!

Needs some fixing!
I’m at the parent end. Kids attend two different schools, I show so many notifications and yet nothing is truly highlighted as “new” or “unread” super annoying! And the attendance submitting sucks. I w at to submit a sick note and it won’t let me submit the correct time when i picked up the child. I had time at 4pm at the day to submit the sick note and the app wouldn’t allow me to set the time to 10am when I picked him up, earliest was 4pm.

Cannot scroll the message on iOS
From last two updates, cannot scroll or read messages on iOS device. The user experience is bad.

App barely functions
The chart function doesn’t allow you to add groups or multiple people. Both parents can’t be in a group conversation together. Half of the features redirect you to the browser. They didn’t do any quality control or they hired cheap engineers.

Not happy and love it
The only thing I hate is when it logs me out and we have to program again and some of us don’t remember our password. It helps in some ways that I hate to fart that we have to be logging in with our password. It’s frustrating some of us don’t remember her password or they make us one and they don’t explain it to us. They just write it down the paper and when I try to login with that, they put on the paper it’s not valid.

Parent Teacher connection
I am thankful for Parentsquare App. As a teacher, I can easily communicate with parents through Newsletters, updates, and other information. It allows individual and group messages. Pictures can be shared and it even allows for parents-teacher conference sign-ups. All in all, it’s a great App!
