ClassDojo
Is ClassDojo free? Free with a Catch.
Pricing: Core ClassDojo communication remains free. ClassDojo Plus is optional and adds family extras such as detailed progress reports, enhanced messaging, home habit tools, interactive books, and school-memory features. Current App Store IAPs show several Plus purchase points and a Dojo Sparks item; generic duplicate labels do not justify guessing their billing cadence. Optional paid features: ClassDojo Plus Basic ($9.99); ClassDojo Plus Basic ($69.99); ClassDojo Plus Basic ($8.99); Dojo Sparks ($9.99); ClassDojo Plus Basic ($7.99); ClassDojo Plus Basic ($39.99); ClassDojo Plus Basic ($10.99).
The school communication features families actually need are free, including teacher messaging, class updates, and points. ClassDojo pushes its optional Plus subscription hard enough to make the experience feel commercial, though, and that pressure comes up repeatedly in reviews.
