    It notifies fine, but when I go into the app it doesn't show my student. I can go into notifications and it will show drop off and pickup of him, but he isn't listed on the student part. Also trying to add my other kid since his school just got one and it just keeps spinning like it's loading, had to try multiple times, then it said it added him, but when you go into the account part it shows no kids linked. If I go out and back in sometimes it says kids linked. Won't change bus notify time

    Now using the app, the map feature is gone. The web version allowed you to see the bus location while enroute. Why have this program if you can't see where the bus is located. Developers misses the boat on this one. This should have been an acceptance criteria before deployment. UPDATE 11/4 Developer pushes out a new update and the map only works at certain points. Seem silly that the bus can't be tracked all the way to school but us parents must rely on the notifications.

    9 times out of 10 when I go into this app it isn't working. "Please try again something went wrong" I don't even usually rate apps but it's a bit ridiculous at this point. It's not a connection issue, only happens with this particular app. Frustrating but that's why I rely on life360 to know when the bus will actually be arriving.
