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.

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.

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.
