Seesaw app FAQ for families and students

What has changed with the Seesaw app? 
Launched in Summer 2022, Seesaw now has one streamlined app for all! The Seesaw app is a single app for teachers, students, and families to make learning experiences and communication simple!

Our family has multiple Seesaw users on one device. How can we log in to multiple Seesaw accounts from a shared device?

What app should new students and family members look for?
Search the Apple App Store or Google Play Store for “Seesaw”.

I’m concerned about the security of having multiple accounts signed in on the same device.
Our account switching feature is designed to make it easier to switch between accounts when multiple people share the same device. If you don’t want someone else who is sharing your device to be able to switch to your account, you can sign out between sessions.
