Teachers Pay Teachers (TPT) Hack 2.19.0 + Redeem Codes

This app has so much potential to be great, but it’s really not incredibly useful as it is. My main wishes for improvement are these:
1. Clear and easy access to the back end of your own product - currently you can only view it as a buyer would. I’d like to be able to, for example, edit the description from my phone if I see an error.
2. Feedback counter reset- currently it does not reset when you view new feedback, so the number is more accurately called “feedback received since installing the app” instead of “new feedback”.
3. Share functionality- it needs the ability to provide a shareable link for products. This is a huge deal for marketing.
4. Feedback- currently you cannot leave feedback at all through the app. The more accessible feedback is, the more likely it is to be provided.

LOVED this app when I first got it several months ago. I was legit addicted and was always on it. But I’m not sure what happened... anytime I am on the app and I do a search for what I’m looking for it will maybe show me 6-8 items that fit that search and that’s it- they just keep repeating in the same order over and over when you scroll. But when I search on the computer for the same thing... there are thousands of hits. I have really stopped using the app because I literally can’t find what I need. PLEASE change it back so that I can use the, much more convenient, app again.

This app has provided many resources for my coursework especially out in the field as I am a grad sped education major at Xavier University. These resources are often free or I pay a small fee of 5 dollars or less for materials that have already been created for me which is obviously extremely helpful. However, being “a broke college student” I often find materials that I wish were priced lower or could be free such as calendars and other editable materials. I do understand that this is a side business for some teachers but maybe adding a category for students in college or a special discount for students in college is needed. Overall I have found this app and website very helpful and I continue to use it.

I’ve spent just a RIDICULOUS amount of my own money on TPT, as most of us have. Teacher salaries are just sad when you consider what we do day to day. At school AND at home, outside of work hours. BUT STILL, we are more than willing to sit out on our back patios…as our sweet husbands grill…to search, find & PURCHASE instructional material that we believe will inspire & motivate our students.
CHILDREN. LIKE YOUR OWN.
So. Give us a break. Allow us some patio-sitting, wine-drinking & iPhone-lesson-planning.
.…call it a tax-breaking charity donation.👊🏼

As a seller, I love the sale sound effects, but actions within the app are shockingly limited. In addition, as an American teaching in China, it’s a bummer that the app only works on my US iPhone. Even with a VPN on, I can’t get past the login screen on the newer iPhone that I bought in China. Even when I verify that I am not a bot, when I click Log In, I’m looped back to the login screen. Disappointing (I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app several times). This probably also means that you are limiting your market abroad, as I had similar problems when I worked in Kuwait.

First, I LOVE that y’all keep making improvements to the app. It gets better with every update!
One thing I’d love for y’all to look into is optimizing it better for the iPhone X. When I click on a resource and then want to go back, the arrow to go back (in the top left hand corner) sometimes gets squished up under where the time is on my iPhone X, so I either have to tap it 50 times before it will go back or I have to close out of the app and go back into it and try to find where I left off.

Wow. I’ve learned from scrolling through the ratings, that Apple has rejected the buy/sell option for this app. Here’s some thoughts on that little piece of info:
#1-Why not have a petition to Apple from all of the teachers who would use this function?
#2-Why would Apple even be charging a 30% (or any other amt)fee to Teachers?!?!
Old review- -
I, too, am frustrated that we aren't allowed to purchase from the app. When away from home I could go ahead and purchase a product and then download it once I was home. Many sellers run special rates when they introduce a new product to their store. I have missed some by the updates of your app.
Also, I cannot view my purchases or freebies only. They are in one big scroll down.

Please listen to your target audience and change the features back to what they were before.

I love the app - I have over 7 pages of purchases, but I like to lesson plan while waiting for my own children, when they are at practice, and having to remember to log in and buy what I stored in my wish list is just one more step in an already hectic day. One plus to not being able to purchase from my phone is it saves me from impulse buying - great for my bank account but not so great for the sellers.

It’s great that I can search for things, add them to my wishlist, see my wishlist and my purchases… but why on Earth can’t I take things from my wishlist and put them in my cart? I can’t do it from the wishlist, I can’t do it if I go to the resource directly, and none of that makes sense. It makes it difficult to work remotely when the app doesn’t do the basics I need it to. At least I can add stuff to my wishlist to put in the cart on my computer later!

I love the ease of the app EXCEPT there is one huge issue. When you search for something and scroll through, after about 8 products it starts to load, and when it’s done loading it loads the same products over and over again. So you can be scrolling for hours and only be looking at 8 different products!!!! This is a major annoyance.
