User Reviews

Users largely praise ParentSquare for direct school communication and convenient updates, including access to shared photos. However, recurring concerns center on notification management (oversaturation and hard-to-clear badges), usability (confusing navigation and limited font controls), and reliability issues after updates (crashes or the app not opening). Some users also want better filtering to hide irrelevant schools. Overall, it functions well for messaging but needs UX improvements and better notification controls to reduce noise and avoid outages.
Pros
  • Strong, direct communication with teachers and school administration through the app, with clear announcements.
  • Centralized updates and notifications help parents stay informed without juggling multiple channels.
  • Ability to view and download photos or student work shared by teachers.
Cons
  • Notification overload: too many alerts, badges are hard to clear, and users want more control to filter relevant information (granularity).
  • Poor UX/UI and confusing navigation: tab vs drawer layout, lack of font size adjustment, and inconsistent behavior across staff.
  • Reliability issues after updates: the app can crash or fail to open, and login/sign-in friction can occur.
  • Difficulty filtering out information from irrelevant schools or groups you’re not involved with.
