This app UI is awful. Getting the account set up made me want to find a different app immediately. I hoped it would get better once I actually had my account. It didn’t. You want to try and change settings for you class? Good luck following all the restrictions and notifications that don’t show up. […]

It’s a great way to stay in touch with my kids teachers and coaches- even other parents. I just love it!!! To clarify the answers I gave to the additional questions, this is a text app, so you communicate your best way- English, Spanish, German, French, Polish, etc. It is as easy as using any […]
Frustrating! Remind/help isn’t helping either! A few days ago the app changed where I can no longer send an announcement to “Everyone” in my class. Now that option has disappeared! Why?! It was the most efficient and easiest way to get a quick note out to my class! I’ve emailed help team & they say […]
It is nice to use as a basic chat app with your classes, however it is EXTREMELY limited. Videos cannot be shared or uploaded, which to me seems like the very first thing you’d want to have for your class. Announcements, which are how you talk to your whole class, are limited to an extremely […]
I’ve never had an app with this many issues. It’s supposed to be a way to keep in contact with your child’s teachers, but I never receive notifications for new messages despite having push notifications selected and my phone’s notifications on as well. In device maintenance it constantly shows this app has crashed. Every year […]
Overall, it’s a great app. Most of the clubs and activities at my school send out info through Remind, so the app is handy to have. There’s no ads in the way and it’s easy to use. The only down side it that there’s no option to delete, archive or even hide old conversation. I […]
Can’t upload videos of routines or plays from a game, only 9 people per conversation (when you don’t want to do an announcement), no calendar available to mark events and set reminders, difficult to navigate communication threads when part of many groups, and there is not an easy way to share documents (you have to […]
It’s perfect for getting reminders. However, it’s not easy to delete classes once they are over. Also it will sometimes continue to give alert to unread messages that I’m unable to find anywhere and it looks like all messages have been read. Maybe they could set class expiration dates so that participants can confirm when […]
It does it’s job, just rather difficult. The issue is that about every time I open it on my phone (LG Android if you need to know) it takes me to a sign in page and has me confirm my email unreasonably often and I can’t seem to find a ‘stay signed in’ option. Another […]
This is a really nice app to communicate with my team! A part of me wishes that regular students could message anyone, not just leaders. It’s kind of difficult sometimes for students to go through me for information on another. Notifications are almost instant and I haven’t had many problems so far. Joining classes is […]
Easy to use, but I don’t get notifications anymore since last few updates and sometimes it won’t even open a certain “class”. Sometimes I open the app and there are red dots from tons of classes, but no notifications outside the app. I’ve checked all my permissions, Uninstalled and reinstalled… still song the same thing. […]
UPDATED AGAIN: Ive reached out since October 25 and their final reply was “sorry, but I’m not going to have the answer you need” UPDATE: Since they updated Remind to demand a 4 digit verification code, I am unable to access Remind on my computers. Only my phone Remind is usable. They’ve been unable to […]
Some teachers subscribe and never use, some never subscribe, but when it is used it makes it so much easier to stay on top of your child’s assignments, and make contact with their teachers! The interface is different on each of my devices, and i don’t like that, otherwise, its still great! Seems like it’s […]
Decent app,but could be a LOT more intuitive and WAY less drilling around to find people and things. A few recommendations I would have: -The ability to put it on SD card, as it’s not an app that’s in constant use. Even though it’s not a huge app, not everyone has a phone with huge […]
Update: a year+ later, reducing to two stars. Hard to figure out. Wouldn’t give push notifications for ages. Just all around annoying. Only okay. It has some bugs and requires too many taps to get from place to place. I had to sign up/sign in, like, six times, then it stuck me on the “join […]
It’s a fairly simple app to use. No bells and whistles, does what it says. The inability to mark things as read or clear notifications in the app is annoying. The character limit is also a hindrance. Aside from those two things, I like it. Edit: This is great for sending messages but terrible for […]
I I have no problems receiving my messages. This app needs to be able to clean up old messages. I have messages from 2015 elementary school going into high school 2025. I don’t like clutter. I have also tried to add my child’s name and it just won’t save it! They need to release a […]
This app constantly signs me out. It’s annoying to log in so frequently. And then if you need a verification code it takes awhile to get to your email and times out in 30 minutes, so if you get distracted you have to start all over! Overall it used to work better when we used […]
It used to be a great app but year after year it has more limits and more issues. First, the characters are extremely limited. Sending a decent message to students is impossible. Even regular texting has many mor charact! Second, there is a message appeared on all groups and people that they won’t receive any […]
Does anyone know how to reach Remind? I want to know if the app runs based on cellphone number/service. My remind app is not reliable. I have all notifications turned on, including email and text notifications, and my app is up to date. But there are still times when I won’t get notifications of messages, […]
