The photos are very good quality. We’re Kenzie’s grandparents and look forward each day to seeing what she’s learning and the fun time she’s having with her daycare friends.

It’s a great way to connect but it’s not very user friendly from the worker pov. It would be so much more helpful if messages sent as a continuous feed from the child and I didn’t have to type a subject every single time to send a quick message to a parent about what’s going on. Sometimes the subject line could be startling like sick, injury, etc. and I would rather them know their kid is okay first. And it makes sending messages take so much longer. I like the ability to track progress as the student grows and develops through the school though. It would also be easier to let them know which teacher the message is coming from instead of having to sign the message every time. It’s just very formal and in a field where building relationships is so important it feels impersonal.

Add trends/charts. Parents may want to see if diapers, ounces in bottles, nap times, etc. are trending in any one direction. Kids spend so much of their day away from us its harder to see when they are getting ready to drop a nap or need more ounces. it would be good to see the timing on those things especially for infants when it’s more open ended. Also side note- yes your app is SUPER buggy. Hire more QAs, train then better, pay them more (to attract better talent) - something! You could prob crowdsource bugs from parents cause we use the app all day

I like what it does, terrible UI

I’m not sure how the UI in this app made it past QA. It’s just terrible, open a picture and good luck trying to X out of it, you can’t. A lot of times the navigation is so broken that you have to return back to home and start over.A lot of times I just end up quitting the entire app just to go back to view the daily report/open report. As a programmer I suggest go read the iOS Human Interface guidelines and rework the UI. Seeing that the owners come from Ivy League schools I thought this would be engineered better. Again, love the app and what it does, but the UI needs a ton of work.
