## Review summary

User reviews overwhelmingly describe Apptegy for Staff as buggy and unreliable. Recurrent issues include login failures and endless loops at country or language screens, along with onboarding glitches. While a district-specific build or the web version can offer a partial workaround, most parents report being unable to use the app effectively and resort to alternate communication channels. The prevailing message is a strong demand for substantial updates and improved stability to enable basic, everyday use.

### Pros

- District-specific app builds can work for some schools.
- The web browser version offers a workable alternative for parent-teacher communication when the app is unreliable.
- In rare cases, users report the app functioning without issues after proper district setup.

### Cons

- Repeated login failures and endless loops back to country or language screens, preventing sign-in.
- The app is buggy, glitchy, and unstable, with crashes during onboarding and daily use.
- Onboarding/registration is broken, with users unable to sign up or stuck at the initial country screen.
- Many users are forced to rely on the web version or other tools due to poor app performance.
- There is a strong, recurring call for a major update to improve stability and usability.
