myMCPS Mobile 4+

This app was never very good, and it is not maintained frequently enough for it to be functional.
It is difficult to get to my grades; the app makes me log in every time I use it, and the interface is cluttered with unnecessary resources. I have downloaded myMCPS+, which is a far better app, but I am still frustrated that this app does not work. It won’t even let me log in anymore, on the rare occasion that it actually loads the login screen.
The other review is condescending and somewhat judgmental, so let me say this: I am a student, not a parent. I am no tech wizard, but I am far from technologically incompetent. I am not complaining because I thought Edline was better or because I don’t feel like learning a new layout. I am complaining because this app is bad and does not work.

In terms of simplicity, Edline was so much better. As a middle school student, when I was first introduced to edline, it instantaneously fell into place. I used the third party Edline Helper app as my primary grade checker on my phone and iPad. Now, myMcps, isn't so easy to get used to. First off, when I want to check my grades, am instantly reminded of my gross yearbook picture I took that looked horrible. As a typical female, aesthetics are very important to me. But my Vaseline face is just so darn distracting. But the app in general is okay, but edline helper was straight to the point. But on so many other aspects, this app was much better than Edline's. first off, I love how in one app, I can get access to a wide variety of things, from the weekly school newsletter, to the lunch schedule. Also, I can access google classroom, which is always great for those select classes that the teacher loves the Google ecosystem. For others, it may seem distracting, but I am quite fond of it. Moving a little away from the app, I have to say, the URL for mymcps for grade checking is kind of hard to memorize. I now have to keep it as a bookmark. For edline, the URL was pretty easy to type.

I actually believe that this a better app than the one for Edline. Of course we don't get Edline nor Edline helper anymore but just because we don't doesn't mean that there isn't a future possibility that there could be an option for that on this same app. Keep up the good work. Anyways, there are ways to find out your potential grades just gotta do the work on paper than having a computer do it for you, so it isn't IMPOSSIBLE to find out. One just gotta do more work in order to. Also, this app helps one stay WAY more connected to their schools. & let's admit it, it is way better than Edline. Not everyone nor parents could speak English & that's okay but it's very tough when you don't because you can not connect with the schools or county. With this app, the languages will help many way more.
