Skyward Mobile Access

Skyward isn’t a bad app overall, but there’s one issue that makes it frustrating to use. The app opens, but the “Open in App” button for viewing your grades barely responds. Everything else on the screen works except the part you actually need. It can take five to fifteen minutes of tapping before it finally opens. Once it does open, it works normally and is easy to use—but getting to that point is the problem. On top of that, the app has locked me out before and told me I had too many wrong attempts, even though I used Face ID correctly. This needs to be fixed so students can actually check their grades quickly

skyward is meant to show you your grades, attendance, portfolio, etc. before, it did just that and wasn’t that bad, even with the occasional lag because every aspect of the app requires internet. now, though, they’ve added an account switcher that you are prompted to choose from when opening the app. this prompt cannot be disabled and is completely useless to anyone who isn’t a parent with multiple kids (multiple accounts). it seems to me that they’re encouraging the sharing of accounts between students, which I am fine with, but it’s not something everyone does. to these people, this feature just wastes valuable time that could be spent loading important information like grades rather than loading multiple accounts. I just want this feature to be able to be disabled
