Royal history review of ClassDojo

Pros

Classdojo is easy to use and connect to students.
I found dojo to be easy to host my classes and assign/check homework

Cons

As I am a teacher for many years I did find this app confusing to start with by soon got use to it. I took some classes online and used it most days so I quickly got use to it.
I found also found the parents at the beginning also were confused but they to ogot use to it.

ClassDojo has been really helpful for us as busy parents. This is where we communicate with teachers and the school. We look into classdojo for school announcements, too.

Pros

Very user friendly. It gives us a way to communicate to the teachers either privately or in a group.

Cons

You have to purchase so you can save photos.

No email notifications for app users

Reviewed on 2023/09/27

Not responsive to user needs

Not responsive to user needs

Pros

Child privacy is protected because photos can be shared, but not downloaded.

Cons

There is NO option for email notifications if you use the app. App users get push notifications and if you log out of the app, you will receive email notifications (access through web browser). I receive a gazillion push notifications daily and miss most of them; this is not a reliable way to communicate to parents. ALSO, this limitation is not clearly articulated anywhere on the platform. When I have used the app, I have missed crucial information from my child’s teacher. I asked ClassDojo tech support for email notifications to be added to this system in 2017 and it still has not been done. To make it worse, last month (Aug 2023), they released an update to force users to switch to the app and no longer use the web browser (no ‘X’ on the pop up to download the app from the web browser), which meant no more email notifications. After I complained, they reverted the update to still allow web browser use.
