Hi, the app is great & very easy to use. But lately after the last update there have an issue in the (view original) button . Once I click it I don’t get the assignment on the web or as a pdf. The app takes me back to the (to do) page !! The same happens when o try to print some assignments. After clicking on (view & print) the app takes me back to the (to do) page!!I hope this issue is resolved soon Thank you

It’s very hard to type the tpstuff you add on and then edit it. I’m a student in using this app and it’s a problem everybody in my class hates. We can’t edit our texts on the seesaw activity and if we get something wrong ( eg. Spelling) we weather have to delete our texts and retype it or just keep on removing our text bit to but until we reach the button where the thing we have to edit it. There no autocorrect and please make a thing to keep the side stuff away because sometimes our work is there and we can’t read it. Thank you seesaw!
Hard to Use

I am facing serious issues using this app on iPhone, which makes daily work very difficult and time-consuming.1. Video upload problem (iPhone):When I upload a video from my iPhone, the app uploads the original file instead of the edited version.This is a major problem because we always edit videos before sending them to parents.2. Videos do not play unless opened first:If I send a video without opening and playing it first on my phone, parents receive it as a photo instead of a video, and they cannot play it.This forces me to manually open every video before sending, which is very inefficient.3. Chat delay issue:I receive notifications that a parent replied, but the message does not appear in the chat.I have to refresh the app multiple times before it shows up.⸻All these issues make the app slow, unreliable, and stressful to use, especially when we need to communicate quickly and professionally with parents.Instead of saving time, the app actually creates extra work and delays.Please fix these issues as soon as possible
Horrible.

I’ve been using this app for 4 years and it went from good to horrible. Firstly the app keeps on lagging and showing somebody else’s answers when doing math. Secondly it’s very laggy and hard to use whenever I’m writing something with an Apple Pencil I write slowly and it still lags and makes my handwriting horrible. Thirdly, whenever I upload my activity it sometimes doesn’t even show my work and when I edit it my work is gone and I have to restart, that sometimes is happening all the time now I have to take screenshots so I can write it down and redo it. Fix your app because your getting horrible reviews, if you want your business to work at least fix your app so people won’t have to suffer the crap that you made.Thank you.
