Get AI help writing a post

Bliss is Bloomz's AI writing assistant, built into the post and message composer. Give it a rough draft, and it can rewrite it at a target reading level, adjust the tone and length…

See your child's Weekly Family Summary

Instead of piecing your child's week together from separate posts, grades and attendance notices, a Weekly Family Summary rolls the school week into one short digest — what was due…

Send a voice or video message

Some things are faster said than typed — a quick pronunciation note, a warm "great job today," directions that are easier to hear than read. Voice and video messages let you record…

Cross-post an update to Facebook, Instagram or X

A post your school already made public on Bloomz doesn't have to stop there — send the same update straight to your school's Facebook, Instagram or X at the same time, without rety…

Add alt text to an image you share

Alt text is a short written description of an image, read aloud by screen readers — it's how someone using TalkBack or VoiceOver knows what a photo in your post actually shows. Blo…

Posts & Announcements

Share an update with your class

A post is how you share news with a whole class at once — the classroom equivalent of a note home, except everyone gets it in their own language and you can see who has read it. Be…

Post an announcement that stays at the top

An announcement is a post that stays pinned to the top of the feed for a window you choose — the right tool when a message must not scroll away: a deadline, a closure, a schedule c…

Recall a post you sent

Sent a post with a typo, the wrong attachment, or to the wrong audience? You can pull it back. Recall removes the post from everyone's feed, stops deliveries that haven't gone out …

Schedule a post to repeat on more dates

Some messages need to go out more than once — a Friday folder reminder, a "picture day is coming" nudge, a permission-slip chase. Instead of rewriting the same post each time, sche…

See everything you have sent

"Did I already send that?" The Sent view answers it: one list of every post and announcement you have actually sent, newest first, across all your classes and groups — your complet…

React and reply to posts

A quick reaction is often the perfect answer to a post — it tells the sender "seen, and appreciated" without adding another message to anyone's day. When a reaction isn't enough, r…

Attach photos, files and a voice note to a post

A post can carry more than words. The composer's bottom toolbar lets you add photos or video, attach a document, and record a short voice note — mix and match as many as the post n…

Pick exactly who gets a post (classes, roles, individuals)

Not every post is for the whole class. The recipient picker lets you add another class or group, and hand-pick specific people alongside it — so a post can reach exactly who it nee…

Target families with a recipient filter (grade, language, …)

Sometimes the class isn't the boundary you need — you want everyone in third grade, district-wide, or only the families whose preferred language is Spanish. A recipient filter buil…

Check how many people will see a post before you send

Before a post goes anywhere, Bloomz shows you exactly how many people are about to receive it, right in the composer. Before you start The recipient count updates live as you chang…

Schedule a post for later

Write a post now, send it later. Turning on Schedule lets you pick a future date and time, and Bloomz sends the post automatically the moment it arrives — you don't need to be onli…

Schedule a post for several dates

Need the same post to go out on a handful of specific days — not every Monday, just these three dates? Once you've scheduled a post for later, you can stage extra send dates in the…

Read a post's delivery report

Sent a post and wondering who's actually seen it? Every post you send has a delivery report — a breakdown of who it reached, who's opened it, and who hasn't yet. Before you start Y…

Send a notice that bypasses the delivery delay

Every normal post has a brief delivery delay — a short window that lets you catch a mistake and recall it before it truly goes out (see Recall a post you sent ). For something genu…

Messages

Send the same message to several families privately

Sometimes you need to tell several families the same thing, but privately — each parent should get their own message, without seeing who else got it or being pulled into a group ch…

Forward a message

Forwarding sends a copy of a message into another of your conversations, with a preview card showing the original sender's name and the original text — so the person you forward to…

Search, sort, and clean up your messages

Your message list can get long. The toolbar above the conversation list carries the tools that keep it useful: sorting, an unread-only filter, search by text or date, and deleting …

See your child's messages

If your school has turned this on, you can see every message conversation your child is part of in Bloomz — the ones with teachers and staff, and the ones with other students — fro…

Message a parent, a student or a colleague

Sometimes you need to reach one specific person — a parent about their child, a colleague about a schedule swap — not a whole class. The fastest way to a private, one-to-one conver…

Filter your inbox by class or unread

When your message list spans several classes and conversation types, narrowing it to one class — or to just what's unread — gets you to the right thread faster than scrolling. Befo…

Print a message thread

Need a paper or PDF copy of a conversation — for a record, a meeting, or a file — print the whole thread straight from its options menu. Before you start Printing works from a web …

Mute or flag a conversation

Two different problems, two different controls: flag a conversation to mark it for follow-up so you don't lose track of it in a busy inbox, or mute one to stop its notifications wi…

Translate a post or message

Written in a language you don't read? When a post or message arrives in a different language from the one you've set for Bloomz, a Translate option appears right on it. Before you …

Newsletters

Send a newsletter with the Studio editor

For a polished, periodic newsletter — not just a quick post — the Studio editor gives you a drag-and-drop block canvas: headers, images, buttons, and a background colour or image, …

Polls

Create a poll

Need a quick read on the room — "Which day works for the field trip?" A poll asks a question with a fixed set of options; recipients tap one to vote, and everyone can watch the res…
