FAQs
A School App, also known as a "School Mobile Application" is a piece of software which can be installed on a mobile, tablet or other smart device. School Apps are used for a wide range of purposes including parent communication, information sharing and school software management. School Apps should not be confused with portals, parent or gateway apps that offer a more restrictive set of features and limitations.
EdUnity School Apps are built specifically to the school allowing for customisation of the design, features and functionality. Other School App providers can market services as 'Parent Apps' or 'Gateways' that can be downloaded to a mobile device and used in limited ways. These services, usually require schools to share a universal app which can limit functionality and negatively impair performance. Applications that are built specifically to a school's requirements allow for a better understanding of long-term needs and will ensure technology scales appropriately.
EdUnity offers dedicated support with all subscription plans. This includes Live Chat assistance within the School App Manager, Email and Telephony Support. Schools also benefit from access to a School Solutions Advisor to get the most out of an app during their subscription as well as built-in 'On Screen Guidance' to dramatically reduce training and on-boarding requirements.

Yes. We are happy to work with clients that require more advanced or customised features. It could range in use case from School Bus Tracking to integrating with a specific platform.

FAQs
Every school app is made up of individual features, for example, an in-app mailbox or a calendar page. These features, when added together create the overall app for your School. We have many features available both created by EdUnity, as well as a wide range of third-parties in the EdUnity App Store.
The EdUnity App Store is a place you can go to discover new features, apps and services that plugin and connect with your School App. As a result of the EdUnity App Store, your app can get smarter over time, driven by new third-parties and apps that will be made available.
We release new features and improvements every month. Once more, it's our schools who decide what we release. Clients can vote on new functionality and features, so over time, your app will keep getting smarter and better!
That's up to you! It can be within just a couple of weeks by the time all changes and iterations are finished. We advise schools to get in early, busy periods around April and the Summer Holidays can mean higher demand and may slightly increase waiting times.
