## Review summary

The app is praised for being easy to use for homeschooling and strong for grades/attendance with helpful reports and an in-app calendar. Major recurring downsides are lack of cross-device syncing, unreliable backups/transfers, pricing concerns (limited free tier and missing transcripts), data import issues, and missing transcript/printing options.

### Pros

- Easy to use and well-suited for homeschooling, with straightforward setup for courses and lessons.
- Strong grading and attendance features, including detailed reports and visual graphs.
- In-app calendar integration and the ability to link assignment dates for scheduling.
- Usable free version with core functionality and reasonable upgrade options for more courses and features.
- Per-student and class-wide reports with support for weighted assignments and ongoing progress tracking.

### Cons

- Lack of syncing across devices (iPhone vs iPad), even in the paid version.
- Data backup/restore issues and difficulties transferring data when upgrading or changing devices.
- Pricing concerns: limited free tier (few courses) and perceived value; missing transcripts feature.
- Import/export problems, especially CSV/Dropbox data import glitches that hinder getting data in.
- Missing transcripts/printing/export options and occasional broken emailing feature (e.g., cannot email reports or notes).
