The forced transition into the new editing software is very distressing. I have all if not most of my slides in the Classic style because it is easier to organize, and with this new software I cannot make edits to the dialogue boxes if I need to. And when I brought this to the attention of someone at nearpod, I was given the suggestion to, "start remaking your presentations". All 140+ of them that I do for 2 separate semester long classes. The fact that we were not given the choice to make this transition, but the fact that it was done without warning in the middle of the semester for many of us, I find galling and inexplicable. I ask that the option to use the old software be at least temporarily restored until the summer to give us time to copy and paste the dialogue boxes into new presentations in the old model. I do not think this is an unreasonable request.

A year's worth of recorded lessons and plans have to be redone?! WHY? This is ridiculous. Bring back the Classic mode!

I have been using the classic interface for years despite the beta being available as I loathe the new one. It is much less user-friendly. I am an extremely busy teacher, and I do not have time for the lack of user-friendly features. I despise this new format and may not continue my membership with Nearpod if I can find a more user-friendly alternative.

The fact that you've essentially re-designed how the platform is run -- both for editing and creating new presentations -- during the middle of a school year is extremely frustrating. The fact that you also didn't put any notice out that this was coming is also an issue -- people log on to create or edit an existing lesson and find out it is all different and that their existing ones can't be edited at all is not good. Most don't have time to fool with learning the new system at this time of the school year. The suggestions to just re-create all of these existing ones using the new method is not really rational, either. I've used your system for years and always talk it up as such a useful tool, but it may be time to find a different platform.

Please change the lesson editing back to the way it was before. I could view all of the slides all at once without having to scroll to see them all. I could easily choose multiple slides to delete at once so that I could upload a new version of the slide deck very easily. Please change it back as it is much more difficult now because each slide has to be chose individually to delete them. The recent changes has made lesson editing much worse.

I needed to add 35 images to a drag and drop activity, but I had to manually add each image individually. It would be awesome if all of the images for drag and drop could be added at once!

When I try to make an individual student report using the 'student reports tab, the student's login date and time is not on that report. My reporting is done once per week and the date and time of login is important. The only date that is given the the date that I launched the lesson. If possible can the date and time of login be added to the student reports? Thanks!

Classic Slides were fast and easy!
