## SIMS Parent Reviews in United Kingdom

### *---- "The worst app I’ve ever used"
It’s impossible to log in. Stuck in an endless loop. The developers of this app should be given the birch.
-- timb0land, 2024-12-11

### *---- "SIMS Parent App"
As a parent of a high school child I find this app completely bizarre. Why our school has adopted this app as a behaviour management tool is beyond me. It would be better deployed in prisons to log every time a contraband is found on a prisoner. It holds children to a bar no adult would achieve. My son is displaying signs of OCD and I am not surprised due to the discipline and rigidity of the school rules, in no small way aided by this app. Please wake up schools. This tech is blighting mental health of young people.
-- Spurzking, 2024-12-11

### *---- "Awful that the developers are not interested!"
Both parents and schools are ripping their hair out and the developers are not listening. I have had my account unlocked by my Son’s school only to be immediately locked out again due to the two step authentication they now demand…. Be great if the codes link to your app… but they don’t and you’re locked out again with no way to get back in until the school unlocks you….again This is beyond user friendly and wish our school would stop using it….. truly awful beyond words
-- borggnn, 2024-10-25

### *---- "The worse school app of them all."
Absolutely horrific use experience. Also if you forget your password the reset button doesn’t allow you to reset so you have to contact the school administrator. It’s been like that for 4 years now!!!
-- 🌸✨🧸, 2024-09-30

### *---- "If Ofsted did apps…."
I’m starting to think schools are paid to use this god awful app. There is no other explanation for it. I cannot otherwise understand why any school would willingly use this despite the overwhelming number of negative reviews on here and feedback from parents and students. It’s truly appalling.
-- VSHJ, 2024-09-22

### *---- "Do things get tested properly before release?"
This app still seems like it’s in development stage. So buggy.

For example, on the app (which is what most parents will use), it’s virtually impossible to reply to a teacher message on the iPhone (yes I’m running latest IOS) because as soon as you press reply and go to type, the screen gets completely covered over with a black box so you can’t see what you are typing’

Come on, this is simple stuff which really should be tested before being released. It severely impairs the functionality of the app and kind of defeats the point of using it (better communication with the school and teachers?)
-- Little-chap, 2024-09-09

### *---- "terrible"
never lets me log in to see things like my child&#039;s timetable or behaviour points! when i try to reset the password it just says incorrect. infuriating and no sources that can help you when you have this issue!!
-- evawildeman, 2024-08-30

### *---- "Schools should stop using SIMS"
God knows why schools still use this idiotic app. It&#039;s a complete wind up, whoever owns it should be ashamed. It&#039;s not even worth zero star, we&#039;re talking about negative numbers by now.
-- TroutMaskR, 2024-08-23

### *---- "Not good"
Always having log in problems constantly logging me out saying doesn’t recognise password. Very frustrating.
-- hagger111, 2024-08-20

### *---- "Utter garbage"
App is absolutely hopeless. It doesn’t recognised saved password, try and reset password using the link and then it won’t let you log in with the new password as it doesn’t defo use that either!
-- S 70MMA, 2024-07-19

### *---- "The worst app ever"
This app never works. Time for something better to replace it. It never recognises my account so I have to re-register every time I want to open it.
-- Worst app ever 1001, 2024-07-16

### *---- "Absolutely average"
This app is ok considering I can see my achievements but every two mins it signs me out or bugs out I don’t appreciate that and I think this is an easy fix however it does show me the happy side to life after my achievements are gone good luck
-- I don’t like this game’s, 2024-07-15

### *---- "Frustrating"
Great when it works - but being signed out completely every couple of weeks for no reason is incredibly frustrating, having to contact the school get a new login creating more work for the teachers- something so fundamental which does not work.  I can’t understand why any school would want to use this app for this reason with all the parents constantly complaining about being kicked out of the application.
-- VG199eg, 2024-07-14

### *---- "Useless app"
Disastrous app. I’ve just given up. The school keep sending me codes but the app doesn’t seen to accept them. I’ll not be using it again.
-- johnnySpurs, 2024-07-08

### *---- "What’s the point?"
What’s the point in this app? It’s not updated for 2 weeks so I have no idea how my son is doing in school. Terrible app!
-- Smanna, 2024-06-24

### *---- "Absolutely horrible rubbish app!"
I really don’t understand why after so many bad reviews the developers are unable to fix the issues with the app and most importantly why schools are still using this app!
Every 2 weeks or so having to login!
Unable to even really get an insight from the school or communicate with the school staff if needed!
Sorry but this app should be scrapped!
-- The.Traveller786, 2024-05-26

### *---- "Rubbish"
Terrible app. Keeps logging me out and was a real pain to get going in the first place!
-- Addicted to move the box, 2024-05-20

### *---- "DOES NOT WORK!"
This app has stopped functioning on my iphone. The login page does not load and remains blank, making it impossible for me to access anything.
I somehow managed to get it to work on the ipad. 
Horrible, horrible app.
I will send a message to our secondary school asking them to seriously reconsider their business with Sims. I am sure other apps are not only better but more importantly..actually work!
 🤬
-- iphone 5 user on 3 network, 2024-05-02

### *---- "Anoyying"
The app is stalking just taking note of your every move making it really anoyying
-- Jnerfujeihrnf, 2024-04-16

### *---- "here’s what i think."
i think the whole idea is disgusting. tracking your children 24/7 is invasive and just stressful. thank god the app is rubbish.
why do parents feel like they need to monitor kids all the time? 
imagine if you parents grew up with this. 
i hate the idea that your parents could be sipping a cup of tea and deciding to watch you on the app. what the hell is wrong with you people? grapes for brains.
