Comments on SchoolMessenger for Android

★★★★★ Oronde Provost · Apr 20, 2026

I needed to report an absence and it was easy.

★★★★★ ThatFat Wombat · Sep 24, 2025

Love the ease of reporting absences, and how it aggregates the zillion school emails. Great app!

★★★★★ Kathryn Willimetz · Sep 7, 2025

Set up was incredibly easy. I have never had trouble opening it, and it's such a great way of communication. Great app

★★☆☆☆ Graham Gill · Sep 4, 2025

This app badly needs a "Late Arrival" option for attendance reporting. Right now it offers only "Leave&Return", which forces you to enter a meaningless leaving time. If your child arrive late because of a morning appt., you have to put the start of the school day as leaving time. But the app has the wrong start time for my child's school 8:50 instead of 8:20. So I put 8:50 in and every time I still get the school notification about absence. Waste of time. Just call the school instead.

★☆☆☆☆ Norm · Mar 23, 2026

Absolutely nobody should be forced to use this garbage. You can't even get an email from the school without a useless middleman.

★☆☆☆☆ Amanda Scott · Jun 20, 2025

I don't even have attendance button to report my son absent. Kind of defeats the purpose.
