Showbie Reviews 26

my teacher gave me too much homework this app can suck down here and teach too

Terrible. I was doing my homework then it started glitching and it exploded, launching me and my whole family to mars.

Warning all teachers do not use this app random deletion of work with all of my students DO NOT USE

Notice how the people who like it are all teachers who say it makes their lives easier? It's awful for the students - poor in features, tedious to work with an unreliable.

i did some lovely drawings on a slide, went to the next one, went back and all my work was deleted :(

Deleted an essay I spent two hours on that is integral to my coursework. I now need to redo the essay entirely. 0/10 software.

This is bad and boring!

This app is so bad every singel time i save it puts all my annotations on the next page

I honestly love Showbie. Their customer service team is fantastic, (special mention to Dan Rose) it makes monitoring class work a breeze and students have a place to talk to teachers when they get stuck! The one reason why this isn’t 5 stars is because of how much students tell me their Showbie is either not working or keeps crashing. The other reason is the sheer price of Showbie Pro. Don’t get me wrong, it’s good that they have a free version, but it is very limited, and even so much as adding a Socrative to an assignment (which by the way is free if you take the time to host it through a link instead of the Showbie feature) requires pro. Plus, there isn’t a monthly subscription for Showbie Pro, which I find rather irritating.

Awful, it's a really confusing interface which the students are constantly complaining about and it doesn't record work properly.

Laggy and very bad painting feature app sucks

Erasing things and saving has a chance to undo all the erasure

I hate this app. My teachers give me bad grades.

This app is the worst that it can be. My teacher gives me more homework

This app is ass. Every time i click onto it kicks me off. It's sh!t and we shouldn't have to use it. It is a bunch of rubbish and needs sorting. FIX ITN NOWWWWWWWWWW.
its crap get it sorted now. Its rubbish. Xxx

My science teacher won’t stop mentioning this stooped app. I’m so done with jeal and walker ruining my day. Great heavens.

Complete rubbish. Slow. Handles files badly.

This is the premier app for building an efficient and effective workflow around feedback. It would be even better if embedded media files (video and audio) could be played within the document preview for Keynote, Pages, Numbers files.

Showbie is an excellent application and is fundamental to the way I teach. The application allows me to communicate with all of my pupils and helps me guide them through their personal learning journey. Further, I can extend my classroom outside the confines of the school buildings, provide remote education and enable pupils to communicate with me while they work ona variety of assignments. Showbie is truly important to my pedagogy and I would be lost without it!

Showbie is SUCH a useful tool for setting and marking work remotely, whether that's during 'lockdown' situations, or just when students use devices to access work during lessons, or for homework.
Showbie makes it easy to organise and review work day-to-day, and even from one year to the next - by checking my archive I can review what I set for a particular lesson last year, and how students responded to it.
Showbie is at the core of nearly everything I set for my students.
