Pros and cons of RenWeb Home app for iPhone and iPad

RenWeb Home app good for

I dont understand the negative comments. Ive had it the last two years and I love it. Its so convenient when trying to see grades, order lunch, or make a payment while on the go.
This is a great app for moms that are on the go. It allows you to quickly check homework, grades, attendance, and the school calendar!!
Great tool for managing the academics of multiple children. Easy to download and use. This is my second year using it.
I use this app every day to monitor my childrens school assignments and grades (yes, Im that parent!!)
Thank you for the latest update fixing the calendar and directory issues. I use this app and those features daily so it was a tough time without them...now if RenWeb would only add calendar import on the ParentWeb computer version.
Not sure what all the fuss is about. The $5 fee is for the whole year and the convenience of having access on our phones. "Week at a Glance" is the best way to see grades, homework and lessons plans for the week without having to click and open each day. Improvements would be to make pages printer-friendly from the app. As it is now, the background is black and the type is white, huge waste of ink. Also, wish there was notification badges when a new announcement or resource is added.

Some bad moments

Every time I try to use the lunch ordering feature on the app it crashes!!!
I can only see my childs info. Per the school we are supposed to used this app to settle accounts and purchase lunches but it wont let you!!! Waste of time and money.
So if you have 2 kids in different schools, like 1 in high school, 1 in elementary, this is not good. It says $4.99 per family, but its really per school. I felt cheated!
Once you enter all the login info you have to pay to proceed.
App just sits there and doesnt do anything ... doesnt download student data, doesnt offer settings to adjust, just a splash screen. Horrible!!!
You cant even log in without paying 5 million dollars this apps is craps
