User Reviews

Users appreciate the app's ability to display timetables in advance and its simple dashboard, with some noting recent performance improvements. However, major issues are frequent crashes, slow and laggy performance, and poor task viewing experience as many features redirect users to the website. Usability is hindered by missing functionalities such as swiping to mark tasks done, unreliable syncing, and notification bugs. Overall, the app is seen as unstable and frustrating, with significant declines after updates noted by multiple users.

Pros

The timetable feature allows viewing schedules several weeks in advance.
The dashboard and layout of the app are simple and clear.
Recent updates have improved speed and responsiveness for some users.
Ability to mark tasks as done directly within the app.
The interface has a more modern look after recent updates.

Cons

The app frequently crashes, especially when opening tasks or using certain features.
Poor performance including slow loading times, lag, and delay between taps and actions.
Many task details, comments, and attachments require redirecting to the web browser instead of being fully accessible in-app.
Swiping to mark tasks as complete was removed and the task management is cumbersome.
App often fails to sync properly, shows outdated notifications, or does not update view preferences correctly.

Good things: You can see your timetable for many weeks in advance+the dashboard is nice and simple. Bad things: Viewing tasks may sound simple but this app somehow makes it difficult; portrait or landscape, most if not all of the text written by teachers is cut off, forcing me to use the website. The touch sensitivity is extremely poor which ruins the app for me. Trying to veiw the timetable takes what feels like years off my life-you don't want this in a busy environment at school! Do Better.

It's very rare that I leave a negative review for an app, but this Firefly client is genuinely awful. The performance is excruciatingly poor (I often have to wait multiple seconds before a tab change is registered), the user interface is ugly, notifications are unreliable, and the majority of actions just send you to the browser page - what's even the point of a mobile app then? Clearly all mobile efforts have been focused on the iOS app. Please either make the API public or finally refactor!
