Hello, I’ve been using this for a few years…
I don’t know if this my problem or your apps problem. But, I have problem changing my icon. It happens on other students accounts too. Even if I logout it doesn’t change.
Pls, this is my second time writing the review.
No appropriate support for Screen Time
When Screen Time is enabled and Content Restrictions are set to Allowed Websites only, this app doesn’t work. It requires me to add “localhost” to allowed websites, but it still does not work.
Very good
It was ok. I love the way how we can use it when we don’t have school or when school is cancelled.
It is generally good if you add the double speed function of the video.
Recent updates...
The new updates have enabled my child to upload his work. The screen freezes at the very end and has had to do it over again numerous times wasting his time.
Messages like ‘taking too long to upload the recording. ‘
But the recording time is a little over 20 seconds.
This never happened before.
No problems with other apps. Just yours.
I'm enjoying trying out this app and hope to use it with my students. I have found a weakness that I strongly hope gets fixed. I couldn't edit my post well from the site, using my cell phone, and I couldn't edit a post at all from the app. I could only delete it or leave it.
