Ratings and Reviews
Ludicrous
This is too far. This app is simply invading privacy. The fact that a teacher can look at what you do is insane. Even your private messages can be leaked to a teacher. A teacher can literally lock a student in messages and view their screen to see what they have been messaging about. And being able to airplay screens without consent is too far. I am giving this a two because there is some sort of consent from the student such as being able to turn off features for teachers like being able to view screens, lock iPads, navigate apps and open apps. But simply not enough consent such as the Airplay issue and the ‘lock in apps’ feature.
This app would not be invading privacy if:
1. Specific apps are blocked from navigation, things like messages, contacts, phone, FaceTime, Discord and all the social media applications.
2. Airplay option needs student consent before usage
3. Lock IPad has a specific time for how long the iPad can be locked for.
4. Consent for every option such as before viewing screen and all of those.
I also have a story on a teacher who BROKE another students IPad. The teacher was simply ‘locking’ the iPad when everyone had to look up at the board, and was doing the options too quickly. Then one kids IPad was STUCK. Literally pure frozen. Couldn’t even turn off the iPad, couldn’t navigate. It was all on control of the classroom manager
Please apple, make this app less corrupt.
Utter trash
So at first i thought that this app is the same like any other app for teachers to teach and upload their stuff onto here but turns out it locks our own iPad. I deleted this last year since it was so stupid and the teachers never use it and completely forgot about it but now teachers can have unlimited access to our app. Thank you so much apple for making this trash app. Even if you are just making it for money think about your kids. Would they be happy if their devices are constantly locked and have no access to it? Everyone should get this to 1 star and make them delete it. Teachers are currently invading my privacy and all my other fellow students so please go and stop this app. Why did apple even create this app anyways? Also to the teacher who said that all of us angry kids within here are mad, you’re wrong. Imagine you just chilling on the internet AT HOME and suddenly your iPad just got locked and you couldn't use it at all. What’s with that? And then you were just researching things but then the teachers think that it was something that isn’t useful and pointless so they just went ‘oh this kid isn’t using their iPad properly let’s LOCK IT AND DON”T LET THEM USE IT’ when in reality that kid that ’wasn’t’ using their iPad properly was just researching for homework;. Will teachers be responsible for the kid’s homework when they can’t hand it in on time? I don’t think so. This app is pointless.
Important: Please read this!!
If you are a teacher considering using this app to 'maintain bad habits', then don’t! This is not an app that 'turns your iPad into a powerful teaching assistant', it is an app that is stupidly controlling and disregards any free will or rights a student has over their device. Key word: their. The devices that students use in class do not belong to the teacher, therefore they should have rights over them. Guilt-shaming a student for accidentally opening a game for 2 seconds is not 'helping students stay focused', it's embarrassing and lowering self-confidence of students because of accidentally bumping a game. And if a student is in a game for more than 10 seconds, don’t broadcast their screen for the whole world to see and embarrass them in front of their friends, talk to them quietly and discuss like a civilised human being that they were on a game and they need to stay focused on their work. If they don’t know what their task is, don’t lose your mind, calmly remind them.
Apple, please remove this app from the app store. There is no reason to have an app that makes teachers look like horrible dictators who don’t respect the rights of students, because at the end of the day, teachers are supposed to guide their students and help them be successful in life. So for the last time, remove it.
Thank you!
