Description
Glassroom is an intuitive iOS/iPadOS native application which enhances the Google Classroom experience by providing advanced features such as speed improvements, instantaneous loading with cache, and user convenience enhancements. On iOS, Glassroom allows users to quickly search for Posts and Courses without having to scroll through an endless list of their Courses or Posts, which lets them find what they need quicker. While on iPadOS, Glassroom has Universal Search, which allows users to quickly search for Posts and Courses all in one area.Adding on, Glassroom caches all of its Courses and Posts on device, which allows you to access Glassroom and read cached Posts even if you do not have an internet connection.
Furthermore, Glassroom also features a lot of client side features like sorting by Post type, client-side grouping and archiving of Courses, client-side customisation of Course colours/icons, client-side renaming of Courses, and accessibility features like bionic reading. This results in a cost free improvement to Google Classroom's user experience using Google's own approved APIs which we call Glassroom.
