K12 Reviews

this app itself is an amazing program but only from the computer. We are in mid December and all three of my students are still not showing up on K12 . K12 doesn’t do anything when you have no students show up. I would love to be able to check what time my older students need to get on meetings while working with my first grader on her chromebook without lugging out my laptop each time but since it constantly tells me I have no students enrolled contact support and then have to wait for ever to get the stupid automatic messenger to send me to a person and then never get a person after 30+ mins. K12 is pointless and I would give it a zero star rating. I repeat, this low review is of K12 and it’s support itself and not the program it is attached to.

To the developers: your Apple app is broken, needs fixing but I don’t know any learning coach with more than one student who can sit here for 30+ mins waiting to tell you all this. As much as I like this program and the platform on the computer you should not offer an app if it doesn’t work and doesn’t get supported. All I wanted to do was be able to check from my phone what assignments were due/turned in for the day and what meetings and when from K12 on my phone instead of having to haul out the laptop while working with my youngest student on her chromebook.

K12 works great for my high schooler. I can look at his progress & schedule. However, it doesn’t show my 5th graders schedule at all. They’re “working on it” for the next school year. How can you have the technology for high schoolers and not be able to apply the same to the grade schoolers? It’s just easier for me to log into the computer to do things instead of go to K12 for one child & then log into the computer for the other. I don’t understand why you would release an app that doesn’t work for everyone. Wait to release it when it functions properly for everyone.

App used to be great and convenient but now have been facing new issues of getting logged out and unable to log back in to check updates and notifications. Repeatedly had to delete/uninstall app to be able to log back in but after several times I’d doing this, I find K12 isn’t working as expected. I’ve been sure to keep all software updated on my device but the issue persists, extremely disappointing experience after almost 3 years of no issues with app until a few months ago. What happened???

- It doesn’t always have the assignments or classes loaded, so I can’t accurately use it to check my kids’ schedules.
- Half the time it completely freezes up and I have to close it and restart it to get it to work again.
- I often have to delete K12 completely and reinstall it just to log in, but the last two days I can’t log in at all even after deleting and reinstalling.

I have four kids, three in school. I don’t have time to be dealing with frustrating apps that don’t work reliably. I still have to use the website for basic functions, which makes K12 completely pointless.

This is our 3rd year in this app, so it’s kind of useless for us since we’re well past the enrollment stage, but I’m sure this would be okay for those who are first starting. It really doesn’t seem like there’s much to it, though, unless I’m completely missing some of the features. I got one notification that a teacher had been assigned, and that was about all it’s been good for. You can change passwords in K12 , which is pretty cool.

I would love to have an app where I could check assignment progress, grades, attendance, etc. (like a mini version of the web browser). This is definitely not that as is.

I am glad K12 exists so that I don’t have to hop on a computer, but it only works for me for the schedule. Which updates through out the day sometimes and it would be nice to get a notification when that happens. Almost every other time I’ve accessed K12 it takes me to a screen that I can’t do anything at all with so I have to kill K12 and start over. I wish I could send and receive emails through K12 exclusively, I wish there was a notification system that would let me know when my child is behind even when I’m looking at it like I should be anyways, wish it was more interactive altogether. It would be nice to be able to send a chat to the teacher directly from K12 instead of having to rely on Google voice or e-mail. I think K12 has so much potential to be so much more than it is. I check all the time to make sure I have the latest updated version and it is still glitchy, it has been ever since the big update. Anyways. Grateful for K12 , but wish it was more. Thanks guys.

This is our 6th year and it would be great if there was a way to log into the students account as well in addition to the learning coach account, to see what assignments are due that day or that week in each class (makes it easier to create a schedule for the students while on the go, by knowing what lessons, page numbers and quizzes are needed to be done for that day or week) more of a mini version on your phone of the computer version of this app. I do know just off the parents on the Facebook pages for our school, this would be more helpful to more people, since most of us are on the go.

I have been with this app since my 15 yo started 4th grade and I watched how it grew and bloomed into this awesome thing everyone now does. With that your app has been driving me crazy it kicks me out makes me sign in and won’t accept my login credentials. This has been going on for a week now.

I do not know if the updates Bug fixes or whichever is the issue updating my apply devices it seems K12 updated it two nights after and it’s been worse than before now not letting me get past the generic opening to enroll a student but not log in if your student is already enrolled.

The convenience of making sure I’m on top of my sons academics is very important to me and I’m sure many families using K12.

Please fix this or I will not re-download and will complain in more length and time with this app directly until a solution happens so no other parents go through my issues and concerns.

As mom and learning coach, I love K12 , but only when I works. Lately, that’s only about 50% of the time. It lets me check on their schedules and assignments. But if I open K12 , and it asks for my feedback as a learning coach, I already know I’ll have to fully close and restart K12 , because no matter what I do or respond to the question, it freezes. Lately, and even more frustrating, if I open K12 and it asks me to login, then forget it! I have to fully delete K12 from my device before it will even let me login again! This used to only happen when I didn’t use K12 over a long school break, but not lately. It happened to me 2x today alone, on a regular school day when I check it often. Very frustrating.

I don’t know if anyone else has the same issue as me. But K12 is great and easy to use when it actually works. I’m not able to get in most of the time. It never accepts my passwords regardless how I sign in with K12 . But works great if I sign in on my laptop. Very frustrating when trying to keep up with entering in time for attendance. Maybe spend a little less time with sending out attendance reminders and fix K12 issues so it’s easier for us parent to enter it in on time. 🙂 please fix this bug!

Hi, so I use this as a student so I can check my schedule to know when to wake up. I have one suggestion though, I recommend that you make it so school emails are visible from K12 . This would be very helpful, thank you.

Update: I have one more suggestion. It would be quite helpful to not only be able to view the daily schedule in K12 , but be able to view the entire calendar. Me and my mother were curious about when spring break began, and we were unable to find it in K12 .

I keep getting logged out of K12 . When I try to re login the login button doesn’t work at all. I have to totally uninstall K12 and reinstall it to enable it to login. This is about the 4th time in two weeks that this has happened. Any help or responses would be greatly appreciated.

It’s an new experience for myself and my son. It makes a lot of thing easier to work with and manage when you have your hands full like myself. I have two small children who are two years old that I have to cater to, whereas my 9 year old can work independently with out needing me as much because they provide lessons with detailed instructions. I love it! I think everyone should try it.

I’m extremely impressed with the simplicity and ease of K12. I recommend it to parents who are looking into online, tuition free education options. There are sample lessons, assignments, and curriculum maps right at your fingertips. This is the BEST app I’ve found that has everything in one place! Thank you this app for finally making online education less overwhelming for students, parents, and educators.

I really wish there was an option to log in as a student. There have been many times where I’ve had to run out with my parents to do something on a school day, but I didn’t know if I had required classes or not. I’m not saying that students like me should be able to do school work off of our phones, but at least our plan, TGA’s, and class connects.

Hello :) well like the title says my daughter is a new student enrolled with this app. K12 was a bit confusing and all though we sometimes have a bit of a technical issue it’s always quickly resolved.. so far my child loves it and so do I.. there very helpful with her work needs and questions as well as mines.. I know it’s early but I love this school I recommend it to everyone I can :) it was highly recommended to me through my relative and I’m thankful to her for that.. but I say if it’s confusing call the number for help there very helpful..

The this app app is a quick & easy way for the Learning Coach to check on their student(s) schedule, progress, and assignments, as well as a central place with all teacher contact info, making it simple to email with questions! K12 is not required, and of only little use to those not currently enrolled (you can check the progress of your enrollment). However, as a LC to two students, its a time-saver to be able to login and see everything on one screen. You can use K12 from any mobile device, and allow mobile notifications, so you are always ‘in the know’!!

I love being able to see my kids schedule and what her assignments are. I like being able to hit the mail button when I have something to say to a teacher. And updating my information all from my phone. As we only have one computer it makes this much easier!!! Thank you so much for K12!!!!!!

Um okay so tomorrow i em going to a trip but i need to go to school i don’t want to take my computer so i want to log in but in my phone i went to google and searche k12login but i doesn’t let me it say(page not available) so i can’t i need to now if i can login with a acount please respond it’s important

I’ve done this app since 2019, But since it’s online school I haven’t had friends or even talked to anybody for around 2 years now, it’s really lonely and I have no idea how to make friends, but after they finally added the community tab on K12 I finally have a chance to talk to people and meet up with them, I never thought this was possible thank you for adding this feature. I have so many opportunities to make friends now after all these months alone:)

K12 needs to be able to keep me consistently logged in. Really, a sign in every time K12 is opened? This isn’t a banking app. Why doesn’t K12 have all the information that the desktop website has? With my learning coach account, I should be able to monitor my students progress, check grades, communicate with teachers etc. K12 doesn’t bring much to the table. You’re better off just always utilizing the desktop this app website.

Great app, makes it easy to upload info, however when I do go in to view the documents I have uploaded, there is no button to get out, I must exit the whole app to get out of that, otherwise it’s great

Please make the loud login ding dong noise go away!!!! I appreciated K12 in that it allows me to quickly check my middle school kids progress. I would have really appreciated being able to check 5th grade as well but I know you are working to bring this feature soon. Just please, make the sound go away! So annoying!

Thank God for K12! As an on the go Learning Coach for my middle schoolers, I’m able to actively engage using K12! It’s also very important to interact with your students in person, but I’m a technology person and love the easy navigation of this this app app when it comes to logging attendance and checking my students work!

Easy to use and keep track of my daughter’s progress while I am at work! I am a working mom and her grandma is her Learning Coach. K12 allows me to feel more connected and apart of the day to day activities, to share the roll and to assist in mentoring my high schooler toward a stronger education.

K12 overall is great especially now that we can see the students schedule. The only thing that would make this way better is if you could set iPhone calendar alerts based off of the schedule. An alert 15 minutes before your live class would be amazing.

I love K12! It is so easy and quick to be able to check on both my Kidd’s schedules and to see what times they have cc’s coming up! It is so easy to use and very quick. I’m so happy this is available to us as parents and students!
