I find Himama a useful app as an educator. True it is not 100 percent user friendly where you have to go back and forth to edit or write an observation for each child. And I cannot seem to work on my observations on the weekend because the app will not allow it for all the children are out. I have pictures I took days ago and I have free time to do my work but I cannot. Is there any way around this? As well as the date of the observations. Why cant I manually input the date of the picture or activity that I observed the children doing? I may have written the observation today but I took that

Horrible! Their billing is awful! Support is worse days to respond with non helpful answers. Program is lacking in some many ways. So sorry I ever put my clients thought using app.

This company was very unprofessional while I was trying to get help and get information from this company to further my childcare business. This is not my very first time having my very own daycare I’ve had it 24 years ago shut it down to restore it back over again. And trying to get help from this company they were very unprofessional and I didn’t like it. I’m sure there are other companies out here that offers the same thing that I was trying to receive from this company. So I will move forward I will never look back.

I would love for the app to have an UNDO button. Its quite annoying and time consuming having to go to each child and delete certain updates. Otherwise great app.
