## Review summary

This collection of reviews shows the Sarasota County Schools Portal app is plagued by severe reliability and usability issues. Users report the app rarely loads or crashes, requiring repeated reinstalls, reopens, and even a white screen on click. Core features like viewing grades or a student’s report card are hard to access or unavailable at times, with navigation described as confusing or stuck on non-functional screens. While the app may provide the needed information when it works, the persistent instability dominates the user experience and frustrates parents and students alike.

### Pros

- Provides access to information (grades, reports) when it loads.
- The app is intended to deliver information from the Sarasota County Schools portal in one place.

### Cons

- Unreliable loading: the app rarely loads and often stays closed (opens ~25% of the time).
- Frequent crashes and white screens when tapped (goes blank or freezes).
- Must constantly uninstall/reinstall to get it to work (repeatedly deleting and re-downloading).
- Core features like viewing grades or a student’s report card are hard to access or unavailable, with navigation stuck on non-functional screens (forms page).
- General stability and compatibility issues (noted on iPhone) suggesting device-specific problems.
