## Description

Silent Dismissal - Parent Connect helps parents monitor and manage their child's daily school dismissal for schools using Silent Dismissal. Parents can view student name spelling, classroom assignment, and the most recent dismissal event for the current day, such as called for dismissal, departed classroom, loaded onto bus, or arrived at after care.

Parents may update dismissal status (absent, left early, carpool, or participating in an after-school group) when allowed by school settings, and can invoke the dismissal notice to the classroom within defined geographic boundaries. The app also reminds users to verify school support before purchases and outlines purchase terms: purchases after June 1 provide access through August 30 of the following year; purchases before June 1 expire August 30 of the current year.

## Review summary

The Silent Dismissal app is widely criticized for being unstable and hard to use. Reviews repeatedly mention crashes and logouts, difficulty with login and security features, broken dismissal controls (unable to change pickups or notify the school, limited history), and recurring payment/subscription charges with little effective resolution. Support is often hard to reach. A few comments note past functionality or developer responsiveness, but overall the consensus is negative with inconsistent performance across devices.

### Cons

- App frequently crashes, logs out, or becomes unresponsive, making it hard or impossible to use.
- Billing problems: users report paying $1.99 or upgrade fees, duplicate charges, and poor refunds or support.
- Dismissal/pickup features are unreliable or non-functional (cannot change pickup, notify, or view past pickups).
- Login and account access issues: repeated logins, no Face ID or password autofill, session/disconnection errors.
- Lack of accessible support or in-app help: no clear contact option and slow or no replies from support.
