God help you & your school if they adopt this app for carpool control. We had it for the first day today (solo pickup for us just to test it out) and it was utter chaos. The pre-registration steps for grandmas and others are atrocious and require multiple help desk interactions and carpooling is definitely going to break this app if/when we attempt that shortly. Definitely try to be near the front on the first day to reduce the inevitable delays. 4 week update....workload has tripled for my school as they have one person waving a “announce” sign for us to hit the button at the right sequence at the entry into the line. Then they brought back the lady doing the well-functioning manual system from last year, and a third lady now at the end of line to re-arrange the cars when the two lists don’t match up (which is daily). Carpooling breaks down when a non-driving parent doesn’t properly delegate pickup to the driver parent. This is required for each pickup, by each parent. So that mess-up happens multiple times daily. The third lady has to handle this too by putting the improperly-delegated cars off to the side to keep the line moving. Also, the delegate function ceases to work 30 minutes before pickup starts, so if you initially forget but then remember 15 minutes before pickup, you still can’t do anything about delegating. There are just too many failure opportunities this way vs. the manual/placard way....you put the efficient functioning of the line in the hands of every driver and dozens of non-driver hands too each and every day.
Cumbersome, not intuitive

Despite the FAQ I can’t figure out how to delegate a pickup to my nanny. Apparently the app makes you delegate each day individually instead of changing the default to nanny pickup. One more thing to remember to do every day- just what I always wanted! Using this app is a chore, I wish our school went with something else.
Waste of time

Our school insisted on using this app. It was a nightmare the first day of school. It took over 3 hours to dismiss all the kids. The second day it got knocked down by 30 minutes. By the end of the week it was obvious it took too long to dismiss all the kids. That’s when they decided to ditch the app and go back to the car tags we’ve been using for years. Too much effort to do the most basic tasks. Too many parents had issues with the app that could only be fixed by contacting support and waiting days for them to fix the issue. Put this app in the trash can, it’s complete garbage.
Not user friendly

Has to be one of the worst apps. It is now required to have for the school. It needs a lot of updating to bring up to the times. Functions that should be simple to execute are not such as the delegations. You have to know each day who’s picking up the kids.
