User Reviews

Most reviews are negative with some positives. The app's major recurring issues are login reliability, post-update instability, and billing/transaction problems, including not being able to view history and pay from the app. Users frequently report lag, crashes, and features not working after updates. Messaging and notifications are also unreliable, with missing messages and cross-user visibility issues. On the plus side, a few users note that core functions like payments can work and that the feed keeps them connected to their child's day. Overall, reliability and consistency are the main concerns.
Pros
  • Core features like adding a payment method and processing payments work.
  • Access to a news feed with updates and photos from teachers, keeping you connected to your child.
  • Useful and beneficial for parents, helping them stay informed about their child's day.
Cons
  • Frequent login/sign-in problems and not staying logged in (password prompts, Face ID issues).
  • Instability after updates: app stops functioning, lag, and features not working until restart.
  • Billing/payments issues: difficulty viewing transaction history, charges, and reliance on desktop for some tasks.
  • Messaging/notifications problems: unreliable notifications, missing messages, and cross-user visibility issues.

The very core basics seem to work. I can add my credit and pay. The lack of Apple Pay is unfortunate, but it doesn’t affect my rating. After 3 years, I still can’t see my transaction history. They’ve been “adding new features as fast as possible” since we started using the app almost 3 years ago. My son is going to be out of daycare before any actual updates happen.

I have been using this app for my kiddo's daycare but it is really not very well maintained, there has been multiple times the app stoped functioning, the latest is that it takes me 3 tries to sign into the app to check in on my kid. It is slow and generally frustrating to work with compared to other apps I have used.

We are having to sign in using the “hands free” option but in reality it not hands free at all, as we have to scan a QR code that’s on our phone on the iPad at the school and then complete a few questions on the school iPad. The parent portal should have a QR scanner to scan a QR code on the iPads app, to sign in via our own cellular devices. On top of that it seems that every time I go to sign in, my Face ID isn’t working. And it makes me manually sign in with a user name and password every time.
