  • Would be fabulous, if it didn't get bricked with every new Mac update

    Literally every time Apple pushes out a new update for Mac, it totally bricks this app and nothing fixes it. Insane.
  • No Monterey Support?

    Really Apple? How in the world can you tell people to upgrade to Monterey but not update your OWN APPS to work? Let alone tell ANYONE that this is a problem. "Update available soon". Thanks, tell that to the people who upgraded and now Classroom no longer works for their day to day needs. 🧐
  • It is great when it is working.

    I love using this to help me keep students on task during work time, however every time MacOS is updated it breaks and then they take time to release an update to fix it. You would think Apple software would be compatible with Apple computers on day one, but that is not the case for this application.
  • It doesn't work with Monterey OS

    Please resolve the issue as quickly as possible. It doesn't even open the app in M1 Macbook pro over Monterey OS

    I wish this platform catered more to teachers. I need to be able to input a list of students manually vs having them all sign up with a code/email. This could be a really useful app but I just cant use it.
  • Product Suggestion: MDM

    I used the app while I was teaching in my hybrid first grade classroom (using iPads). My district uses MDM to manage the iPads, however, the district didn't provide TEACHERS with an Apple device (at least not until half way through the school year. I tried to use Classroom with my personal MacBook Pro, but the iPads only work with other devices that are enrolled with MDM. Needless to say, the first half of the 2020-2021 school year was a train wreck. Suggestion: allow for non-MDM devices to request access to MDM enrolled iPads.
  • Big Sur update

    I love and use classroom everyday. Since my update to Big Sur on my macbook air, I can no longer see my students in the classroom. Ive tried having them rejoin a new class, reinstall the app on their ipad, reinstalled on my macbook, still nothing. So disappointing to end the school year with this problem.
  • Needs support with Big Sur

    Ever since I updated to Big Sur, I am not longer able to see my students' iPads. I have had them leave the class and rejoin, created new classes and had them join, and uninstalled and reinstalled the App--nothing works. This app is useless if it won't even show students in the classroom. I loved it before the update, now I can't even use it at all.
  • Need to increase compatibility

    On the Mac, I've only been able to watch iPads that are on a particular version of iOS. If they're any higher or lower, they're invisible. What's the point of the walled garden if it isn't even compatible with itself?
