Great but no horizontal view

This app is a lifesaver for me and works glitch free. Shame I cant turn my phone horizontal to read with bigger letters.

Cim

Good activity

Loging in

We have an account but we cant register on the application!

NOT EVEN WORKING LOL

Why i have to choose university instead of logging in just like in the web site.... dude, this is not even meaningful

Love it

It is easy to use

Crashes

Cant even open anything in the app after the new update without everything crashing.

Okay, needs work

My university is currently transitioning to Canvas so there are some problems. As far as the app, Im constantly being told theres a network issue, or some other issue when my network is fine. Also would like the option to see past courses and grades.

Unusable

Nothing shows up in modules, and when I refresh modules, it crashes everytime

Please fix

This app has always been spotty, but since the last update things take much longer to load, if they load at all. It would be nice to be able to read comments from my professors on assignments that are closed. Needs work.

Easy app

I have to use it for my school homework and quizzes and I didnt have serious problems with it.. it builds a link between the teachers and students and make it easier to follow the work between them

Great app for the traveling grad student!!

Great app!

Easy to access and use. Id like to see some of the features that are available on the desktop also available on the app. All in all though, its been very helpful.

Best school app ever

I love this app.

Updated review

There are some little bugs that come and go but for the most part its a really convenient app to keep up with my classes without having to get out a computer. Definitely recommend it despite the occasional glitches. Those are easy enough to get around or wait through until it works.

Great

This app is very straight forward and easy to navigate. It really a great app for college.

WEBSITE

Website is great the app needs improvements

A few tips from a student...

One thing that really bugs me about this app is when I click on the "to do" icon it gives me a long list of all my assignments, but it doesnt say what class theyre for. When most of my are assignments are titled "assignment 2" or "quiz 6" it is hard to know what class its even for. It would be really convenient if the class was listed along with the assignment. Also, another thing I wish this app had was somewhere where I could go to look at all the announcements made by all my teachers. The announcements are sometimes really important and it would be nice to be able to look at all of them in one place rather than having to go into each class separately to see if your teacher is trying to tell you something. Other than that the app is really nice!

This app... is crap

Serious, its always crashing, it wont load certain things. Its ver half baked, I really hope my university is using the canvas system for free. Because if its paying for this service, they need a refund. Few things I hate. - messages to other people or teacher are limited to like 200 words. - you cant can removed uploaded items. - it never works, and wont load notifications - when ever I feel like its started working right, it gets an update and everything goes to crap. - its so slow!!!!! - again its crap.

Pretty great

It works well and its nice to be able to look at things on my phone instead of having to get my computer out every time. The only bug I noticed is, when using the app on my iPhone I cant see the whole layout of the grades page. Ive tried turning it to landscape and tried clicking but it wont work. That isnt a big issue for me though.

CRASHES!

Great app to quickly check classes, but crashes all the time now. Last version was better. The other problem is that when you receive a notification on the lock screen, the badge icon doesnt show, even though you enable them. Also, when you get a notification and you slide to view (from lock screen/banner), it makes you find your school and you have to sign in again.
