Recent reviews

It's ok, but needs to be quicker, with better tools for managing messages. I have 47 old and unread messages which I cannot quickly mark as read. I will probably never get on top of the messages to the point that only new messages are marked as unread, because its so slow. Could we have swipe options to mark as read like Gmail? Or multiple select, so we can mark messages as read, in a batch? Message loading is slow too! And notifications never work, however I've not tried to fix this.

An option to mark all messages as "read" would be helpful. My child starts reception this September and I've just set up my account. I've logged in and I've got 99+ messages which include messages from last year which aren't applicable to me. There's going to be no way of clearing that unless I go into every message and read them.
