The app is unbelievably laggy, it made my laptop completely unusable. Despite the school saying it'll only lock me out during tests, which there ISN'T ANY, it still locked me out and it won't even let me CLOSE my device. my apps, shortcuts, and even my KEYBOARD is locked, I can't even long press the power button to at least let my laptop rest until it unlocks again. Why do I need a password to get out?? I keep hearing that this app is a complete virus, I'm starting to see why. Schools, don't force this program onto the kids.
